Unlike SNL Laugh-In could not sustain and reinvent itself and by 1973 the nations TV watchers were ready to move on. Once the show caught fire with TV viewers it became sheik for actors, actresses, and politicians to lobby for a position on next week's show. Laugh-In spared no one in it's sarcasm and very often stepped dangerously close to the edge with network execs. Sayings such as 'sock it to me' were not only uttered by business execs, secretary's, hosuewives, and everyday working people wishing to emulate the awakening of social moree's but also spoken freely by media and political types wishing to be thought of as in touch with the younger hip generation.

It's relevant social commentary combined with incredibly adroit acerbic wit allowed this show to cover social, personal, political, and moral territory no show had ever dared attempt on prime time television. In the evolution of television humor Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In was probably the forerunner of Saturday Night Live.
