Dick Smothers, whose given name is Richard Remick Smothers, is a multi-talented American who has found fame as half of the comedy duo “The Smothers Brothers.” Dick Smothers and his brother Tom were born in New York City on November 20, 1939. They became famous in the 1960s for their distinctive combination of folk music, humor, and social criticism.

“The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour,” the Smothers Brothers’ 1967–1969 television variety program, catapulted them to stardom. Innovative and humorous, the program often tackled taboo subjects including politics, war, and censorship, earning it a reputation for innovation. The dynamic and amusing relationship between brother Tom Smothers and straight man Dick Smothers was a hit with viewers.

Network censors often clashed with “The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour” over material, resulting to the censorship or removal of many episodes despite the show’s popularity. The termination of the program in 1969 caused quite a stir and brought attention to the problems of censorship and creative freedom in television.

Even after their TV program ended, the Smothers Brothers kept performing together in concerts, specials, and live performances. As separate artists, they worked on films like “Get to Know Your Rabbit” (1972) and TV shows like “The Informant!” (2009), with Dick Smothers making cameo appearances.
