Blazing Saddles episode 87: Get your pies for the great pie fight

The episode opens with the fight continuing to spill into the Warner Brothers commissary. The fight takes on a frenetic pace. The film speeds up to go along with it. We point out the actor playing Hitler is at the very back, standing on the counter alternating his heils. A tour group gets appropriately pie-struck on their tour. Then Taggart gets smashed by Mongo and flies across the counter to the register. Suddenly, the men's room opens and Hedley mouths a naughty word before retreating back inside. A moment later he re-emerges, the remnants of a pie dripping from his face. He begins to make his way out of the commissary. We end the minute with the rioters spilling out onto the streets of Burbank. Our Guest Our guest today is Chris Korman.
