Topper Takes a Trip [VHS] Reviews
21 of 22 people found the following review helpful Comedy at its best, By Linda Jones (Rockledge, Florida, USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Topper Takes a Trip [VHS] (VHS Tape) Topper movies have been some of the best clean cut comedy ever. These are the types of movies you can watch over and over and still continue to laugh. More comedy movies of today should be made this way. I know there are "Topper" lovers as myself and would enjoy being able to see them on the American Movie Classic channel or just on regular tv from time to time.
