	'''Richard Bernard "Red" Skelton''' (18 July 1913 - 17 September [[1997]]) was a popular [[American]] TV and movie comic of the mid-20th century. Originally a circus clown and vaudeville comedian, he parlayed his talents as a funnyman into a successful screen career spanning almost five decades.

	In keeping with his often anachronistic taste in entertainment, [[Chris]] is an avowed fan of Skelton's comedy. (Coincidentally, Skelton's first TV show hit the airwaves in [[1950s\|1951]], the same year as ''[[I Love Lucy]]'', another Chandler family favorite.) He often claims to have used Skelton as a role model as far as learning how to effectively interact in social situations.

He often claims to have used Skelton as a role model as far as learning how to effectively interact in social situations.

	Exactly what he's learned from Skelton, though, is something of a mystery. On the [[Sonichu Girls]] forum, he talked about learning "how to be a gentleman," but didn't go into detail about what gentlemanly traits he picked up from Red. Likewise, on his [[Christian Weston Chandler...Yep, I'm on TV :)\|DVD]], he claims to have developed "a positive social behavior similar to Red Skelton" during [[high school]], but doesn't offer any more details than that.

	Some of Chris's comments from an [[IRC (28 December 2008)\|IRC chat]] in [[December 2008]] go into a bit more depth. There, Chris explains that Skelton taught him "how to be a more hospitable gentleman for one thing…how to speak with a softer tone of voice in pleasant conversation, and some fun jokes as well."
