Summary: Late Night w/ Andy Kaufman
Review: A must-have for Andy fans (and sure to freak-out anyone who's not familiar w/ him...) His Elvis impression is still awesome...if you've ever seen "This is Elvis" or any Elvis concert footage, you'll see how uncanny Andy's version is, with the stage banter and the karate moves...See Andy wrestle two hooker-ish women (very daring for network TV!) They should have made Andy permanent host after this episode.

Summary: Great Video for Die Hard Kaufman Fans
Review: After seeing the movie "Man on the Moon", I was dying to view some actual Kaufman material. This video definitely satisfied my craving for some good Kaufman material. The special showcases his talents at playing the drums, singing and generally, just being Andy. Highly recommended!

Summary: Just buy the Andy Kaufman Special
Review: For the fan of Andy Kaufman this, as with all his work is a must have. However, if you are just beginning to get into Andy, this performance is not his best. Granted his reaction to Slim Whitman and falsetto are priceless, but when compared to the magnificent 'Andy's Funhouse Special' (listed here as the Andy Kaufman Special) it pales in comparison. Save your cash unless you know what you're getting into.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Eye opening for new fans
Review: I became a fan of Andy Kaufman when I saw Man on the Moon. I had seen him only on Taxi, and I really didn't know much about him at all. I saw MOTM the first day it came out, having heard about Andy. I'm only 15 years old, you can't blame me for not knowing much about him. In any case, it was a great show! I really was surprised that Carrey seemed somehow rougher and stranger in ways than Kaufman himself. To me, Kaufman was a genious, but at the same time was still the little boy who played his shows to the wall. The video was a nice display of his talents, it had Latka(or the foreign man), Elvis, Howdy Doody, and plenty of bongos. The only complaint I could possibly make was that there was more of Slim and that other guy than there was Andy. Oh, almost forgot that I loved Tony Clifton! He is so funny! Sorry if I didn't help.

Summary: If you BELIEVE they put a Man on the MOOOON...Yeah YeAH YEAH
Review: I bought this movie and liked it. I only wish there was not so much background information and more skits but HEY... I'll take any Andy Kaufman than NO ANDY KAUFMAN. I especially love the part about "Imitations". HaHa!

Summary: The One and Only Andy Kaufman
Review: I first saw Andy in reruns of Taxi. I, and most people my age (17) had no idea who he was. I learned more about him after seeing some television specials and through my own research. He soon became who I thought was the funniest man ever to hit T.V. I always wanted to learn more about him. His act and mentality drew me closer to wanting to discover who Andy was inside, which I don't think anyone will ever know.
