Synopsis by Hal Erickson
First shown on November 29, 1960, this was only Red Skelton Show of the 1960-61 season to be telecast in color. In the main comedy sketch, Red assumes the guise of bucolic buffoon Clem Kadiddlehopper. Discovering he has the ability to talk to animals, Clem decides to become an animal psychiatrist (This, of course, was at a time when such a notion was regarded as a joke. How times change!)
