As a kid back when this aired in real time, I couldn't wait for Geraldine skits!! My entire family would gather around the one tv and enjoy this well written hilarious show!! Flip Wilson was everything in the 70's!! Love him so much!!

[@lilybond6485]

I don’t think that there was/is a person on the planet that didn’t/doesn’t love Geraldine.

[@heartstrings7814]

@@lilybond6485 Geraldine had such a big personalty, she became real and journalist as well as fans forgot that was Comedic Genius Flip Wilson underneath. Decades later he would warn comedic actor Martin Lawrence not to allow his female character Shenanah to become bigger than him( Martin).

[@lilybond6485]

@Heart Strings: Same here. Something about those old TV shows. The entire family could be in the same room, watching TV and there wasn’t an off color remark or insinuation. The very worst that I heard was Ralph Cramden telling Norton or his wife Alice “ BANG ZOOM”. 😂 If my parents wouldn’t let me stay up to watch “The Honeymooners” on a school night -- I would throw a fit and have a tantrum until they gave in. 😇 Seriously -- At a young age -- I realized that life was short -- so I better get my way.😂 I was the most well behaved self will run riot child the neighborhood ever experienced. The Flip Wilson Show was an absolute watch. Everybody loved him and looked forward to the next show. We sure could use him now for an hour worth of laughs and escape from what is currently going on in this crazy world.

Love seeing this! Brings back so many memories from my childhood. Flip Wilson/Gerldine was so funny! I had the Flip Wilson/ Gerldine doll with the pull string that would say " watch out sucka" "You don't know me that well" , and something else I can't remember. Thanks for the memories.

[@shirleymeadows1931]

Geraldine the queen of comedy she is the full package right left upper cut and a who lot of stomping 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@ncavlleguy]

Geraldine was certainly ahead of her time !! YOU GO GERALDINE ❤️

[@llccal4605]

The 1970s (& 1980s too) was the greatest for comedic geniuses here in the US (Flip Wilson & Redd Fox & others), Canada (John Candy & others) and the UK (Stanley Baxter, Dick Emery, Benny Hill & others). Flip was so funny. Watched his show every week. Loved Geraldine . Comedy today is not the same.

[@Barbsspace]

So funny!! Great to be watching such amazing talent!

[@maddyebanks9863]

Love Geraldine!🤣🤣🤣

[@DWORLD-ve9bs]

I think Geraldine was the character that made me finally “FLIP” my allegiance and my wig. 👍🏼😅. You betta watch it sucka!!! 😍🤣🤣🤣

[@nailahaisha1737]

Before Sheneneh, Madea, Big Momma, Mama Payne, Mama Klump, Wanda, Mrs. Doubtfire there was Geraldine. Too funny.

[@alcd6333]

Classic skit with two comic geniuses. Sadly, they're both gone - RIP Flip and Dom.

[@joemasters2270]

Dom Deluise was a comedic genius :) That plus decades before Tyler Perry's Madea - even before Martin Lawrence's Shanaynay - there was Flip Wilson's Geraldine XD XD XD

[@onpsxmember]

First time I've ever seen them. Just great. Thx for the upload in that quality.

[@alite3928]

Paved the way for so many others

[@1stGeorgiaGirl]

Before Madea, there was Geraldine Jones. Gotta love it.

[@alienzardsketter.9076]

Kevin Scott youtube channel was the funniest comedy I had seen in many years and youtube removed %80 of his videos ,, much funnier then Tyler Perry or Flip Wilson....but he was a white man that did black and hillbilly and characters black and white people alike loved Kevin Scott , search for Sparkel Johnston on youtube .

[@1stGeorgiaGirl]

This was way before Zuckerberg was born.

[@LaLaVango]

And then Shenehneh was born. He made it okay for men to step outside or their comfort zone in order to make ppl laugh.

[@Jessebadga]

Right

[@ericmcarthur611]

Monty Python and Benny Hill were doing sketches as men in 'drag' in the early 1960's, brits and cross-dressing go as far back as Shakespearean plays, this is still funny though, way before Shenehneh
