Man, Burt Reynolds had a bad attitude right from the word go. I wonder what that was all about.
Damn, now I want pie.
Seemed believable until the pies showed up, which is what Marc was famous for on Nick at the time. Marc could have easily made a bad toupee joke if this was serious.

@The Gunny: I agree, it kinda looked pre-planned to me at first, too, but Summers said it wasn’t. Apparently Burt was in a bad mood and felt he should have been more a part of Summers’ conversation with Leno than he was. The Berle/Pryor dustup was definitely real, though, and there was a lot more to it than just the one laugh by Pryor.

Pryor was high.
Burt hit him with that pie at about mach 2. I thought he was going to knock him out.
Back when Late Night TVs goal was to entertain as opposed to indoctrinate.
