Flip Wilson - Johnny Mathis, Joe Namath, George Carlin

[@kathleenmckeithen118]

Geraldine with Joe Namath was the best of all combinations. Joe could not keep from laughing and we laughed with him! The football jokes just cracked him up. "Compared to you, Jim Brown is Sir Lawrence Olivier." Those of us who were around and watching this back in 1970 or so, really got these jokes! Flip and George Carlin's news sketch was hilarious!! Thank you so much for posting these great old memories. No cursing, no filth just plain out of sight talent!!!!!

My father never watched TV, but he never missed an episode of the Flip Wilson show. I don’t think I did either. Variety shows back then we’re fantastic.

[@michaelmitchell5098]

Yes they were!!😃

[@lillianmunster4734]

I Agree 💯

[@renatacantore3684]

Flip Wilson & Johnny Mathis !! Who knew Johnny was an actor ?! So cute ! Good teamwork 🏆🏆👏🏽👏🏽♥️♥️

[@FreshRose-z3s]

"I'll be in a booth; in the corner; in the back; in the dark." Even Joe Namath's voice was sexy!

[@georgiaayres5805]

I remember watching Flip Wilson when his show was first run. I know this dates me big time but I do not care. I thoroughly enjoyed the show.

[@lillianmunster4734]

Me tooooooo and Loving to be able to watch it now Thanks to I tube RIP Flip Wilson And Miss Geraldine 🕊️💕🕊️🌹🌹

[@mauriceortiz8817]

Don't feel bad. I often can't get a date either

[@cattycorner8]

Johnny Mathis sooo smoooth. What a gorgeous man and gorgeous voice.

[@dianamarquez4774]

We loved watching Flip. We even had the first Flip Wilson doll. One of our favorites was the Henry VIII scratch with Lee Marvin. We were dying. Flip, you left us too early. Rest in peace.

[@MrDLOC11]

And in an instant Miss Geraldine has us wrapped around her fingers, & so is the comedic mastery of the great Flip Wilson. Never exaggerated & always on point, Geraldine is perhaps the greatest drag character of all time in the world of comedy. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@sharoneh8929]

Now Geraldine Jones had the best outfits. What a fashionable character. Flip Wilson was so talented!!!

[@lillianmunster4734]

Yessss AWESOME Actor RIP Flip Wilson truly missed, Geraldine (Miss Jones) WOW Flip Wilson was handsome man and As Geraldine he made a very Attractive Lady!! RIP Flip Wilson truly missed 🕊️💕🕊️

[@theoccidilian4896]

That’s Miss Jones to you.

[@michaelfarranto-wg6zw]

Requiescat In Pace! Mr. Flip Wilson! God's unparalleled Gift to us to make us laugh until we cried. I have cancer, when I go back when I use to watch His Show you still make me laugh despite the cancer. Thank you again! You're in the best company for all Eternity but We still miss you Sir!❤

[@B1970T]

[@zuazhar1630]

Carlin and Wilson were two of the greatest comedians!

[@IceSkater8491]

"Touchdown"! I always crack up when Geraldine says that to Joe.

[@tedthompson7770]

He was the greatest man imitating a woman of all time

[@codym8897]

This 1970 episode of The Flip Wilson Show during the 1st season (1970-1971), featuring Flip Wilson and his guests; Johnny Mathis, the first appearance of Joe Namath in a Geraldine skit, and the first appearance of George Carlin in "The What's Happening Now News" skit.

[@JavanHamiltonTV]

That's what I love about it.

[@JavanHamiltonTV]

I'm dying to find out where I can find the rest of these 30-minute episodes, with out the TV Land voice-overs.

[@daysturn1971]

Joe was fine!

[@Squirrel36]

He still is hurt me sexxy!

[@shellchenonceau6987]

A show From the days before kids were taught by CRT that no one can be trusted & to hate each other. These two men didn't get brainwashed and became successful. Love it.

[@lillianmunster4734]

Yes I agree 💯

[@brianbullivant1009]

Back when Kids We're Living CRT is more like it. Stop watching Fox News.They're settling for 787 million dollars today Should tell you something about their accuracy and reporting. 😂😂😂😂😂 CRT is nothing more than an acronym boogie man Of the right wing. Much Like saying the name George Soros 3 times in the mirror....

[@hotsickle]

Broadcast Febuary 24, 1972
