Not sure but there were a couple of moments in 'The man with two brains' that had me pissing myself.

I would give a slight edge to Ghostbusters over Fletch, myself. If you have any interest in an off-beat recommendation, I remember Scavenger Hunt (1979) as being hilarious and silly. It's a couple of weeks shy of being 80's, and I haven't seen it since I was a teen, but I remember watching it over and over again on Showtime and laughing out loud at parts every time. Helluva cast. I don't even know if it's possible to watch any more, but since you liked Blind Date you might dig it - quite a bit farther up slapstick alley, but still....

Trading Places.
I can see Jamie Leigh Curtis in my mind's eye right now. Not that that's the only reason for liking the picture.

Thanks, I'l add it to my list. Yes, Blind Date, stupid and funny, marvellous stuff. "I don't love your son!" "Neither do I, what's your point?" Paraphrasing...... Lawyer with black eye approaches the bench. "Who put forward the money for the defence?" "Mister Davis." "Who put the defence together?" "Mister Davis." "Were you in a fight this weekend? "Yes." "Who with?" "Mister Davis."
