[@scottied7299]

Chuck Barris was a maniac! And I mean that in the best way... Gene Gene The Dancing Machine was my favorite part of The Gong Show

[@TinaICXCNIKA]

Chuck Barris was HILARIOUS!!! RIP Gene and Chuck 💖

[@Jeff-ej4wp]

Had a class in high school that was like this every time the teacher left the room for a few minutes.

[@rpg1275]

Lol same, but it was while the teacher was in the room. He was retiring and couldn't care less lmao

[@TedCantu]

Hahahhaha go baby go !

[@mrhoffame]

OMG!!! LOL I remember watching this show and TOTALLY losing my mind when that little riff kicked in! Ha ha! TV was so great back then.

[@michaelrube9881]

I think the song he was dancing to is called " Jumpin at the Woodside"

[@blown22]

0:50 Gene Gene with the slick hands move to avoid the nut shot.

[@raymondweaver8526]

Chuck, thank you for asking Gene to dance on stage that first time. WHO Could have imagining it evolving into what it did

[@garytyson2228]

R.I.P. Gene Gene the Dancin Machine .....

[@meisteria1884]

Set the time-circuits back to 1976, Marty!! We're going back!! I'd give up darn-near anything to be back in the 70's again....

[@Christbepraised]

Wish this video could had continued. I remember watching the show hoping Gene would be on at the end. Wasn't quite the same without him. Everyone, including the audience had so much more fun with him on at the end

[@andrewnorton2576]

Craziest TV Show EVER!

[@docmoody6908]

Priceless moments in American entertainment😅

[@thrillington2008]

They need to reboot it for a streaming service

[@wendyluckie4537]

Innocent, funny, nonsensical show of decades past. Loved it!!

[@rticle15]

The show did get away from innocent fun. I loved it but, the popsicle twins

[@andreahowell99]

Love love . I miss the old classic shows.

[@billysheppard6091]

I can't..stop.gene. He's going to take over the world.

[@theresachiorazzi4571]

This show was good laughs ❤❤❤❤

[@eagle13rodgerthatradar]

I loved this show some of the best crappy talent like tic toc but actual fun entertainment ❤

[@tommccallan8802]

Jay P. Morgan..still alive as of 3/1/24 ..92 yrs old

[@eaglesyz]

We may never see a carefree time like this again. Woman were feminine and actually liked guys. My Grandma went on Vacation in California back then and was in the audience during one of these shows.

[@TedCantu]

Back when TV was friggen awesome.... I loved watches these two nuts

[@KTFRabbit]

Best TV show of all time.

[@NMC21887]

This clip brought to you by the letter, “C,” for cocaine.

[@doubtfulecstasy4220]

Unhinged!

[@richardzink6026]

There was alot of alcohol flowing on that show lol

[@TheBonelessBanana]

"Cocaine a Hellaof a drug."

[@tommyoconnor9283]

Who starred as Gene Gene the dancing on the gong show

[@ricarleite]

How often would Gene be featured in an episode?

[@ChadLRico]

Did Chuck payoff the cameraman? They show him more than Gene.

[@zar87]

simpler times

[@mattmallecoccio8378]

Chuck Barris danced better than Gene

[@richmotroni]

If you notice the crew is throwing stuff on stage and not at Gene Gene, which makes the whole thing funny and not mean spirited.

[@kenouryios]

Everything is politically correct bs now . Everyone is afraid to sneeze now , or they might lose their job . I’m glad I grew up back then . Life wasn’t perfect but it was more fun and less serious than now . People were nicer too .

[@Woozler554]

I agree 100%, and I'm glad I was around in those days as well. Just as you said, things were not perfect. But it was FAR better and much more fun in those days before the PC/"senstive"/Cancel Culture/Woke/Libtard crowd came on the scene. The libtards could not have a good time if it slapped them across the face.

[@woodsonclarissa6726]

Is it just me or did Chuck steal the show?
