Sunday Comedy Showcase: Revisiting Rodney Dangerfield's Funniest Doctor Jokes

Born Jacob Cohen and initially going by the stage name of Jack Roy, the 19-year old Rodney Dangerfield ventured into the world of stand-up only to find disappointment.  After nine years of going nowhere, he completely dropped out of showbiz and, to support his family, sold household aluminum siding.  

Twenty-five years later, at the age of 45, Rodney decided to give comedy another try, appearing in clubs at night while still selling siding during the day.  He ultimately found success, due to luck, persistence and his enormous comedic talent.   

Here's a collection of Rodney Dangerfield’s funniest doctor jokes from his iconic 70 plus appearances on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. It's a nostalgic look back at his standup comedy, delivering his best one-liners about doctors, health, and everyday life. Enjoy!
