Anyone know who did the voice of Rex Banner? The scene where he tries to laugh made me laugh so hard my sides hurt. Brilliant!

Second City TV...Syndicated in the US in the late '70's. An ensamble sketch comedy show similar to Saturday Night Live, only it was actually funny. Stared John Candy, Harold Ramis, Dave Thomas, Andrea Martin, Joe Flaherty, Catherine O'Hara, Rick Moranis.
Johnny LaRue, Mrs. Falbo's Tiny Town, Count Floyd, Bob and Doug McKenzie, Earl Camembert, Guy Caballero, Edith Prickley.....I wish someone would air these again!

It made my sides hurt, but I wasn't laughing. Turns out it was appendicitis. Back in those days, appendixes were bigger, so they used a pair of cutting tongs, which was what we called scissors. So anyways, the doc says, "I gotta take your appendix out" and I says, "You do what you have to, just do it in time for Roy Madison," Roy Madison being a popular radio singer at the time. Ole' Singy Madison, we used to call him. He'd sing and he'd sing, oh boy...

Remove "bination" to reply.
Would this by chance be the same guy who played Mr. Bookman on that Sienfield episode...sounds like him but it might not be, anyway just though I would ask.

Nope. Mr. Bookman was played by Phillip Baker Hall. He also played the quizmaster in the film "Magnolia'.
Dave Thomas (not the owner of Wendy's) was Rex Banner.
Oh, well he did a good job, but I think Phillip Baker Hall would have been better, just my opinion.

You know when I read that it was Dave Thomas who did the voice of Rex Banner in that episode, I thought for many years that it was Dave Thomas from Wendy's who did that voice!
