Really? "The greatest...? It was very good but I wouldn't pin that adjective on it. Have you ever seen "As Good as It Gets"? Very different kind of comedy -- but it was one very funny movie, and the acting was superb. I've seen that more times than Blazing Saddles.

I think the big difference between the two is the subject matter and the times that they were produced. I really enjoyed As Good As it Gets...IMO one of Jack's better performances. In this clip, he displays his social ineptitude.

If u don’t think Slim Pickens giving Harvey a bucket bath in this scene isn’t gloriously funny........

You’re beyond repair
