Am I the only that recalls a 1970's SNL spoof of Bob Ross, where he's some sort of wigged out Vietnam vet who paints stuff in "agent orange" and "napalm yellow"? Yes, I watched way too much late-night TV when I was under five how do you think I got this weird?

Of course I remember the SNL spoof of Bob Ross. The voice, the attitude was perfect.

I even remember seeing many, many of Bob Ross's shows ("The Joy of Painting"), as his hair shrunk [:-)], and was sorry to hear when he died (1995).

Since I can't currently hear this video, I don't know how close he is to the original. He does have several of the mannerisms down.

[Bob always seemed happy, and, to some, somewhat effeminate. His 2 wives and son might disagree.

Quoting: When asked about his laid-back approach to painting and eternally calm and contented demeanor, he once commented: "I got a letter from somebody here a while back, and they said, 'Bob, everything in your world seems to be happy.' That's for sure. That's why I paint. It's because I can create the kind of world that I want, and I can make this world as happy as I want it. Shoot, if you want bad stuff, watch the news."]

I've seen the SNL spoof of Bob Ross. Bob Ross is funny without the spoof.

I don't know who Bob Ross is. Clearly, I've been missing out.

"The Joy of Painting" is shown on some satellite TV channel here. The on-screen listings always truncate it to "The Joy of Pain".
