Yeah, Art, Why is It So Cold?

 



Judge Harry T. Stone: Why is it so cold?

Art Fensterman: Well Sir, on earth's trip around the sun, the northern hemisphere

[Harry Stands up and puts a computer mouse in Art's mouth, shutting him up]

Art Fensterman: Art! What I'm asking is, is it possible to take the chill off the air in here?

[Then he removes the mouse from Art's mouth]

Art Fensterman: [Unfazed] Well, I suppose I could go bang Bertha.

Judge Harry T. Stone: [With a puzzled look] Excuse me.

Art Fensterman: Bertha, the furnance. You bang her in just the right spot and she puts out some pretty good heat.


I love Art. No clip, this plays better on video where you can hear his voice. Season five, ep. 11. Let It Snow.

Night Court (1985-1987)—“Bob Wheeler”
BS: I think it was the first thing I did when I came out to Hollywood. It was just one of those things that… I’m from Texas, and it was a character I’d been doing when I was a kid, just for fun. Me and my friends would go into a Denny’s or something, and I would be that guy and order… [Bob Wheeler drawl.] A patty melt. Yeah. With extra cheese. [Laughs.] So I would do that character, and I never dreamed when I was a kid that I’d walk into a casting session and they’d hand me a script and I’d read it and go, “Oh my God! This is…” It was a character I called Elmo, and I read it and went, “Oh my God, this is Elmo! I can just go in there and do Elmo!” And I did, and they let me do it. I think we were probably going to become at least semi-regulars on the show in the next season. We did six of them, though. And when I say “we,” I mean Annie O’Donnell, who played my wife, and myself. I think they were kind of prepping us to come on in some capacity like that, but then I got Star Trek, and that was that.

I'll Start the Bidding at $50




Selma on Night Court "Blizzard." Last roll of TP. "On the floor?" "The whole building." Art said the terlets were frozen over.

A blizzard traps the gang inside the courthouse without supplies, and an electrical failure traps Dan in an elevator with a gay man who finds him very attractive.
