1984 Los Angeles Comedy Competition With Jay Leno

From class clown to "The Tonight Show" our host has been called the champion of the underdog: the blue collar comic, whose skewed yet sensitive vision of daily life's faults and foibles has captured America's funnybone. Comedy Competition host Jay Leno skillfully intermixes his ultrahot, ultrahip stand-up routine into an outrageous showcase of L.A.'s best and brightest new talents. John Belushi once called comedy "the rock & roll of the eighties." If so, then host Jay Leno is today's Elvis -- smart, sharp, funny and electrifying!
