— -- Adam Sandler and Bob Barker are still fighting.

The duo, who hilariously brawled in the 1996 golf comedy “Happy Gilmore,” reprised their film rivalry for Comedy Central’s “Night of Too Many Stars,” recreating their infamous fighting scene, this time in a hospital room. “Night of Too Many Stars,” which airs Sunday, raises money for autism programs.

The scene opens with Barker in bed and Sandler sitting nearby, wearing his character’s usual Boston Bruins hockey jersey. The two trade insults.

“I’m fine. But you know, you are looking old. How old are you, 60?” Barker asks. “You’re looking chunkier than this soup … I guess doing all those movies without me took its toll.”

“I think ‘Price Is Right’ is on now, we could watch that. Love the host. He’s just so funny and not crotchety, angry,” Sandler responds, alluding to Barker’s replacement on the show, Drew Carey.

Eventually, the insults become too much for Sandler, so, just like in the movie, he unwinds a punch. Barker counters, smashing a vase over Sandler’s head, then jabbing his rival with a series of left hooks.

Soup is poured. A prosthetic leg is wielded as a weapon. An injured Barker lays in bed – he is 91, after all – his heart not beating.

Sandler can’t end things this way.

“Oh, no. No, no, no. It’s not over yet. I can’t let you die on me,” Sandler says, grasping a defibrillator.

But Barker isn’t finished, saving his greatest attack for last, winning the decades-old feud with a biochemical beat down.
