A. No!

|
| Q. Where did
the phrase, "Dyn-O-Mite" come from?
A. While fooling around in
rehearsal one, the phrase came up (Jimmie said it). Jon Rich, the
director of the show, said, "Hey, I think we can use that
phrase and maybe cash-in on it." Jon Rich was also director
of shows like "The Honeymooners" and "Gilligan's
Island." He showed Jimmie how he wanted it done, practiced
with him, and set up an isolated camera for him to do it... and a
phrase was born! |
