Summary
Season 14, Episode 9
Jerry Lewis
Jerry Lewis was a comedian, actor, and director whose goofy comic style made him one of the most popular performers of the 1950s and ’60s. You might also know him as the guy that hosted the Muscular Dystrophy Association telethon that ran from 1966 until 2014.
But he was also difficult, cruel, and an insecure egomaniac who couldn’t keep it in his pants. He was a sexist creep who sexually harassed and assaulted many of his female co-stars.
