He became known as an insult comedian by responding to his hecklers. The audience enjoyed these insults more than his prepared material, and he incorporated them into his act.
In 1984, Rickles hosted an episode of Saturday Night Live and delivered a monologue in which his political incorrectness spared no group from his insults. In less than 10 minutes he managed to cast aspersions on Italians, Irish, Jews, Blacks, Puerto Ricans, Chinese, fat people, and even (with difficulty) Swedes. But always funny in classic Rickles style, and not in a mean spirited way.
Enjoy!
