Who is watching this master piece in 2024??????

Back in the day the whole family, no matter the race, gathered to watch Flip. You NEVER missed this show - we even looked forward to the reruns in the summer!

At the age of 56, I'm fortunate to be old enough to have watched the "Flip Wilson Show", in all it's glory, when it actually aired. All of his shows were extremely well written, positively hilarious......and PROFANITY FREE. In this day & age, good luck in finding a "prime-time" program that has those same qualities. Flip Wilson....a truly underrated "King Of Comedy".

What this crazy, upside down world needs more than ever is Flip Wilson. Giant among giants. Miss you, Flip.

😂😂😂😂😂 Flip was not only hilarious but one of the trailblazers. We, like many black families in the 70s, looked forward with excitement to see him each week. Family man and great talent and and great entertainer

Our whole family loved this man! His Geraldine made us laugh until we cried. There is no one today who can surpass him. He is SO missed-as is the genius of Richard Pryor. 😥

The Flip Wilson and Carol Burnett shows were the best comedy variety shows on television. Both were fresh, hilarious, and, I agree, profanity free. It's amazing how funny the comics of the 70's and before were without profanity. Sometimes just their facial expressions and body language was hysterical without them ever saying a word.

The late, great funny men, Flip Wilson and Redd Foxx. Two legends of comedy.

One of the greatest comedians, clean and funny, my family never miss a show. Thanks Flip you have enrich so many lives.

When I was a kid, we would never miss the Flip Wilson Show 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

I'm glad I grew up in this Era, where life was fun, it was happy and it was family orientated with the Love of God🙌🏿💕🙌🏿💕🙌🏿💕

At the end you can see the copyright date as 1973. The following year, Flip played almost exactly the same role as a pastor of a church in the all-black comedy, "Uptown Saturday Night". It's a great performance.

Thank you for posting this timeless piece of genius. Flip opened many doors. Our youngsters have missed a great talent.

I loved this show as a kid. "The Church Of What's Happening Now!" So funny and entertaining.

NEVER MISSED A SHOW. LOVED HIM HE WAS SO FUNNY 😂😂😂😂♥️♥️

It takes me back with my mom and dad brothers and sisters watching this live. Thanks a lot for the Post y'all be good be safe he still funny

I'd forgotten Flip Wilson, but seeing this shows he was a wonderful blend of satire, timing, physical humor, and the one thing the great's of any art have, insight into the human condition. Thanks for posting. Thanks Flip Wilson!

MrAliquippawill1, you are absolutely right! Flip Wilson was and still is a true "King of Comedy". I loved that as a child I could watch this program with my family and even listen to his albums, unlike all of the other comedians who had albums back then! It is such a shame that there are no longer any "prime-time" programs showing now that I would feel comfortable to sit down with my 20 month old grandson to watch!

Amazing how much this humor still holds up today

Flip Wilson hands down a TRUE Comic Genius. He stacks up with the rest of the greats: Red Skelton, Jackie Gleason, JacK Benny, etc.

My favorite lines: "The devil made me do it.", ”“When you're hot, you're hot; when you're not, you're not. Flip Wilson (Geraldine) was hilarious, LOL!

Just the sound of Redd Foxx's voice alone cheers me to no end. What a great comedian.

Flashback from the 70's. Thank you.

Just love reading in between the lines. It's what makes this skit so dang funny. :)

I used to love watching The Flip Wilson Show back in the day every Thursday.

Such a nice show. I watched it when I was a kid and it never seemed long enough...miss shows like this. Kids today have no idea. All these shows are about murders, unsolved killings, horrible. No wonder no one can sleep -- even the news makes you have nightmares. I don't watch any of it, I just read.

Good morning and thank you for posting this piece of funny comedy. Flip Wilson was truly a funny and entertaining man who didn't get near the credit that he deserved for his genius.

Certainly Flip Wilson and his show was a ground breaker in television regarding for black comedians. I was in my early teens when this show was broadcast. Great memories.

They don't make shows like this today.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I love Flip & Redd 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Flip Wilson as Reverend Leroy. TIMELESS!!!

Love love Flip Wilson!!! I was told as a child that every joke has some truth to it. This skit has truth and facts of what’s goes on in the Black churches!!

So nice when people can both be great (comedians) & work together, no jealousy (sp). They complement each other. Can you imagine the fun they had at rehersal? Or hanging out afterwards...

I MISS YOU BOTH SO VERY MUCH. REST IN PEACE FLIP & RED.

Flip Wilson ahead of his time.

If a belly laugh is good for you, this is good medicine! When TV shows were truly funny!

Flip Wilson was not only a great comedian, his show did much to bring the black and white communities together at a time when such reconciliation was needed most . His show appealed to everyone. Plus he was so damn funny.

It's so nice to sit back and rejoice watching the men that paved a way for me. I love Flip and you know I love Redd. Thanks for the laffs.

A comedic genius. Never got enough credit for his craft. That was a great family show. Thanks for the memories!

"Y'all take them basket back out there"..Lol

The only one who is still with us is Helen Reddy. The rest of them have gone on to glory. As a child, I looked forward to seeing the Flip Wilson Show each and every week. Oh yeah

This younger generation can only watch and wonder what it would be like to have unadulterated fun, while not offending all sorts of folks. That generation of entertainers were Solid Gold.

I remember this episode had Redd Foxx (obviously), Helen Reddy and Joan Rivers. Much love for Flip. I just about wore out my 8-track of "The Devil Made Me Buy This Dress."

I loved this man and do so miss him!

IF I CAN'T STOP IT,AT LEAST I'M GONNA SLOW IT DOWN.NOW DATS WAS FUNNY AS HELL.

I'm old i looked forward to this show

Oh how I loved this show! Dang it, now I'll be up all night looking up Geraldine videos. "What you see is what you get"!

No cursing... just plain ole fun! I was allowed to watch this as a child and we were in stitches with laughter.... He as an intelligent gentleman.

This is comedy brilliance!

OMG!!!! I was nuts over this show as a kid!!!! Even had a Flip Wilson coloring book!!! Thank you so much for uploading this!!! The kid in me is busting!!!! I still don't understand why this show was cancelled it had high ratings! RIP Flip!! The funniest non cursing comedian ever!!

I always watch flip Wilson he was so funny. I wish there was a channel that would just show the reruns from the show..

He was a legend...

This is the most apocalyptic skit I've ever seen. Even the credit card part is true in today's churches😂

Fantastic! Thank you for this memory,dear to my heart and good for my anxiety. I am serious.Most comedy these days don't give you nothing!

I watched him all the time & Geraldine, he passed to young!

I agree with you. The problem with black comedians today is that they just rely on cursing and filth, Comedians like Flip Wilson and Redd Foxx were versatile comedians, which is something comedians today lack.

I loved watching this show when I was in high school. He never used improper language and treated everyone with respect. He was fun to watch. I use his handshake today! More fun than any handshake out there. 🙃

Thanks for uploading this! a large part of my childhood, the Flip Wilson show!

Flip was the man.....

I remember 👀 the show when I was a young, he also played the preacher in the movie up town Saturday night

Flip Wilson and read Foxx made us proud ❤

What memories ! I never missed Flip. When I heard he passed away I had to cry. He was popular and loved but he never got the credit and respect as an entertainer he deserved .

I watch it every time like it's the first time! Truly wonderful 😂😂😂😂

“When comedy was still funny...”

😆😆😆 This brings back memories watching The Flip Wilson show with my family as a kid. ☺️ Anytime you mention any church to my aunt she still calls them “The church of what’s happening now.” 😁

For some reason every time I see Flip Wilson i hear "here come da judge"

Fell like I've been to Creflo dollars church LOL . ❤️ Flip Wilson

OMG I love this. Rev. LeRoy and The Church of What's Happening Now was my favorite skit. RIP Flip

In Las Vegas there's a lot of fallen women....And I'm gonna pick them up...that's too good, first time seeing this and I cried from laughing, the soulful delivery was classic

gotta love Flip I miss this man he was great

You said “The poor were welcome” and I hear they been showin up BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!

MISS YOU FLIP!!

Flip Wilson and Red Foxx. Comedy doesn’t get any better.Thanks for posting .

I watched this show with my parents! Loved it! Oh, such wonderful humor!

I remember this show love...............flip Wilson he had great performer on his show, he was a great comedian, he did not need to bleep words out because he did clean comedy, Osmond brother Jackson five every big performer been on his show, you do not find shows like flip Wilson carol Burnett shows these days, he got along and invited white performers on his show, when I would go to school the next day my class mates who are white would say to me boy is flip Wilson great, lot of unknown comedians started out from flip Wilson show and became bigger than him, I never hear him complain about that he was nice kind and appreciative about his show, it was a family show think God for you tube thank you for this segment I am strolling for more shows..

This brings back many memories from childhood!

Wow...he was Truly...Raw...Luv it...R.I.P.

Been thinking about Flip lately, 🤔and had to look him up. Glad I did. 😄 3/2023. Timely, always.

This was the pinnacle of pop culture.

Amazing Still.. Loving this one Right here Now Glory

Missing you, Flip Wilson, loved watching his show!!

Omg, loved this show as a child. Even funnier now! Thanks for posting it!

This show brings tears to my eyes because I can remember growing up when things for black people were looking up. T.V. was golden during those years. Everything on TV was wholesome. There no rap and hip-hop. Every message was positive on the radio and television. Life was simple. There were no drugs or people addicted to drugs like today. The black where I grew up in Jacksonville, Florida was very safe. Everybody was nice and friendly.

One of the funniest things I've ever seen. Real comedy genius.

Lock the door. Nobody leave. Too funny.

I grew up in the South and we had black preachers just like this

Brought back a lot of memories.

FIRST Time seeing this and it rocked my soul to the core...Flip Wilson...never heard of him, I guess growing up with no TV. But I'm going to sit down and go through all the shows but this one must be the best...

ManyThanx Flip is JUST BRILLIANT!!!!!!!

I dig this guys deadpan delivery

I saw these episodes as a child. He was just hilarious. I still enjoy these clips

I miss him and his comedy....

I just love Flip. I watched every week.
