[@LoriAdams-y9s]

Does anyone know who the band members are besides Slappy White what their real names are and where are they now?

[@dimviesel]

Always had a crush on ol Jo Marie❣️😍🥰 Her entire career

[@Carryoutmybidding425]

There was a wealth of celebrities on this show. Even Gong Show performers.

[@TheMeefive]

THANKS!!!!! I was a youngster when this came out. I had to go out just when the Andy Kaufmann routine came on. For years I've been searching in vain for Andy Kaufmann/Redd Foxx. FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@clownjewels]

Yesssss!!! We're so glad you found your way here ❤️

[@David-yw2lv]

Redd Foxx had an excellent variety show.If it had premiered a decade earlier,it would have run several years.

[@kirkindog]

You're 100% right! I recall watching this show as a teenager and it was as funny as his previous show to me. However, the variety show format was starting to wane by the late 70s. 1977-78 would also be the last season of "The Carol Burnette Show", another variety show, which had been on the air for over 10 seasons.

[@AndrewFico1]

Never new he had this show till last week

Mrs Winslow used to be built like Carl Winslow ☺️

[@1talldaddy]

yeah it's explains why she didn't want the producers of Family Matter to make fat jokes at his expense.

[@deejay8403]

Wow, what memories these bring back! I was a mere lad of 14 when this show ran in ‘77, and this recurring skit, along with Alphonse & Victoria were the two I remember most. Funny and very offbeat show, albeit short-lived! Oh, and I believe that’s dance choreographer Lester Wilson playing piano with the band. He was the choreographer for John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever which came out in the same year.

[@clownjewels]

Thanks for the memories! We’re so glad you found this again ❤️

[@kirkindog]

I recall watching this show as a teenager & it was very funny to me. However, by the late 70s the variety show format was starting to wane. That same season Richard Pryor also had a variety show that lasted only 4 episodes. The 1977-78 tv season would also be the final one for the queen of variety shows, Carol Burnett, after 10 seasons on the air.

[@clownjewels]

Interesting. Yes, it seems like everything has its time and then the new best thing comes along. We wonder if the 80s stand-up comedy boom had anything to do with it. Clubs were everywhere and so were the shows and then in the 90s those were replaced by something else. Thanks for watching!

Unfortunately the audience couldn't forgive him for ending Sanford and son... That's the only reason I can see that it wouldn't go multiple seasons

[@toolguyslayer1]

One of the greatest comedians in the world and they bastardized his comedy with laugh tracks😮😢 for that extra monetary income no doubt somebody's cousin needed a new job and he clearly was not good at it😮😢 but Fred and the cast on the other hand😅

[@hardren101]

YIKES, S&S was still at the top of the ratings, and he left for this garbage?

[@1talldaddy]

no this was after Sanford and Son

[@deejay8403]

@@1talldaddyThat’s what he was saying. Foxx abruptly left Sanford & Son at NBC after the fifth season because he signed for this variety show on ABC. The variety show didn’t last one full season

[@hardren101]

@@1talldaddy That's not exactly accurate. S & S was in its 6th season (while no longer the #1 show, it remained in the top 5 1st half of the season but finished the season at #27). It also coincided with the end of Fox's current 2 yr contract. Knowing this ABC began to woo Fox, and they met all of Foxx's demands (one of which was that he be paid for the entire season regardless if the show was canceled). By the mid-70's variety shows had reached their peak. At the time Fox left the show, b/c the ratings were so good, NBC's intention was to retool the show with Demond Wilson as its' star. Wilson was on board, but shit went left when NBC refused Wilson's salary demand. Even with Wilson out, NBC moved ahead with a spin-off "Sanford Arm's", consisting of the supporting cast from S&S. However the show flopped and was canceled after 5 episodes. Meanwhile, " The Redd Foxx Comedy Hour" was canceled after 4 months. Fox then approached NBC regarding a revival of S&S which NBC was open to. Shit once again went left when Wilson would only return if he got equal billing and pay on par with Fox, NBC balked, and Wilson walked, but again, NBC decided to move forward anyway. Sanford premiered as a mid-season replacement, ratings tanked, it was pulled, placed on hiatus, and re-tooled (They attempted to focus on the bonding btwn yn/old & white/black with the character Cal, Fred becoming engaged to a rich widow was abandoned). Upon the show's return for a 2nd season, the ratings did not improve and Sanford was canceled.
