Uncle Floyd Show: Mr. Brown Pants

[@jerseyforhawks]

Back in the day, any episode with Uggi was special.

[@Asjemenou-d3j]

I just saw a David Bowie clip in which he said he and Iggy Pop used to watch Uncle Floyd all the time. I now know why !

[@alierdem.]

Sailing over Coney Island Twinkle twinkle Uncle Floyd

[@Teeveepicksures]

This shit totally warped my head at 5 years old and im eternally grateful for it.

[@nessvampire]

Most certainly,me to.

[@pistalo4911]

The Uncle Floyd show was briefly syndicated on a national basis in the Summer of 1982. When it came to one of our local independent UHFs, I decided to check it out. I was a bit perplexed the first time I saw it, but I tuned in the next evening and was hooked. I love the heady humor, low-budget props and the occasional appearances by some rockin' bands and singers. That show is a treasure, and I will never forget it. We are lucky we can still get these clips on the internet. Snap it, pal!!

[@stevemcmahon7676]

This is the absolute best👏🏻❤can we go back to these simpler times?

[@George0674]

I grew up watching Floyd on TV68 and later on NJN. My favorite show ever. I loved how everyone would break each other's chops throughout the show, all in good fun. It's almost a new experience watching as an adult, as I now get a lot of the jokes I missed as a kid. I was such a fan, I even put up homemade flyers promoting the show on the telephone poles along my route to school on Long Island, I was probably 10 at the time. Still have some of my Fan Club stuff.

[@mattfinleylive]

My household LOVED The Uncle Floyd Show also, . U68!!

[@timothyleavy7246]

U68??? 😂😂😂. Where Thor would take a piece of steel bar-stock and bend it in his teeth to remind kids to practice proper oral hygeine. 😂. No wonder we grew up to be like this!

[@buffalopatriot]

That’s great!!

[@hootinouts]

Boy, do we need more raw talent like this today. I miss these folks. God bless you Floyd for taking people's minds off their troubles and the troubles of this world. Laughter is truly the best medicine. Better than any doctor can provide. RIP Mugsy.

[@scottconnors8419]

120% agreed love this stuff..stand up...like doodles wea we show not many remember doodles short lived stint w doodles weaver show ..

[@Verge63]

They need more Captain Fork.

[@EverAppl14]

For some reason one of my most vivid memories from infancy is the time my parents took my 6 yr old brother and I to see Uncle Floyd when I was 2. It was raining. At some point we stood in line and met him, bought t-shirts, and then went to go sit in an outdoor eating eating area. There were some teenagers there at another table who glared at me, maybe because I was crying (as babies do). Really strange, but Uncle Floyd is etched into my memory more clearly than almost anything else from when I was little. I remember him being really nice and friendly.

[@anotherpluss1adventure905]

This makes me joyful

[@garystone3476]

My late wife and I loved this show. We never missed it.

[@thomasholland7981]

I was married in 1983 and we had children in 84, 85 & 86. Our middle daughter was the only one that could be put to bed awake and would go to sleep without crying. Monday through Friday our routine was to give her a bottle at 7 pm while watching Uncle Floyd on snowy UHF New Jersey Network channel 23. At 7:15 Floyd had a commercial break, I put her to bed and came back downstairs to catch the second half. I liked it a lot but I’m not sure why.

[@thebiofile17]

Fantastic simple show, Floyd is a grand master and the cast was superb too, David Bird, Muggsy, Netto, Scott Gordon, Skip Rooney.

[@thebiofile17]

@Cary Groneveldt wh became of David Bird?

[@briansheil9763]

Don't forget Charlie Stoddard.

[@wajobu]

U68 in the 1980s--the best show EVER!

[@pistalo4911]

was beginning to think i was the only person who remembers U68 !

[@superfuzzymomma]

Amen it was friend! Great memories. Bergen County representin'.

[@superfuzzymomma]

Who ever had one of their pictures shown on the wall?

[@Hedra718]

Yes, U68!!! Being a kid in the 80s was the best. Me and my brother's watched this with our parents all the time. Great times.

[@IronDiva]

@@superfuzzymomma I got TONS of pictures up there!

[@nydeco1234]

Uncle Floyd is the last surviving member of a very unique, talented group of entertainers which included Joe Franklin, Danny Stiles, and Skip E. Lowe. God Bless you Floyd Vivino.

[@Randa-tv9pm]

Oh yeah; You’re the best , Uncle Floyd; Oogie too

[@josephcostello695]

Nydeco 123 he was the show to watch. Even in high school at the time this was funny. Like soupy sales a great show

[@scottconnors8419]

Untimely classic,today's short attn span generation can't sit for 5 mins of this cause no computer graphics n overstimulation w today's crappy cinema .....long live ufs....

[@buffalopatriot]

Could Soupy Sales and Chuck McCann be included in this esteemed list.

[@nydeco1234]

Absolutely. They BELONG on that list. We were very lucky to have them.@@buffalopatriot

[@mattstock1172]

I had the honor of meeting Uncle Floyd at Wild West City many years ago, Floyd Vivino is the man!

[@spookedhorse]

Watched Floyd right after dinner in the 80's in Jersey. Even my Mom would sit in with us sometimes to hear Floyd play and sing. Me, my sisters and friends used to literally cry laughing, while watching. I so miss these days. Same vibe with Gene Gene The Dancin' Machine.

[@nessvampire]

Jeez I miss the old days..Thank you for posting.. The Uncle Floyd Show is some of the best television ever...

[@kimberlyjohnson1371]

Uncle Floyd is a very entertaining piano player 😁

[@timothyleavy7246]

The way he makes Oogie scratch his head. 😊😊😊. 😅.

[@fredceely]

Thanks, somebody, for putting these up. I've been waiting a long time to see them again. I lived in New York for a year in the mid-1980s, and watching Uncle Floyd was an evening ritual for my sons and I. Big respect to Floyd and the gang. This is first class entertainment.

[@bluedragon94]

I think that it had to be somewhere between 1988 and 1989, Uncle Floyd and Rocky and Bullwinkle used to come on really late at night on a local channel where I lived as a kid. I still watch a lot of Rocky and Bullwinkle and whenever I hear the music it reminds me of my mom letting me stay up to watch, and Uncle Floyd. I couldn't remember his name until just now. So this is the first time I've seen Uncle Floyd since the late 80's.

[@mgee6331]

I used to watch the Uncle Floyd Show when I was in HS back in the 70's

[@jamespuleo3269]

Great to see an extended clip, *that* was reality TV in the flesh. Hoping that someday someone will release the tapes of the Ramones, J.Geils Band and all the other real talents that flocked to the Uncle Floyd Show from time to time ~~~ Also loved watching Floyd flash some of that Chico Marx & Jimmy Durante vibe at the end!!

[@grumpyoldgraymetalhead2441]

I remember seeing The Dregs on there!

[@mikehatalovsky881]

Yes!!!! I remember seeing Cyndi Lauper perform there with Denim Angel (and she danced with Hugo)

[@andrewvelonis5940]

I don't know what prompted me, but I typed in "The Uncle Floyd Show" in the KZbin search bar and here I am. I used to watch back in the late 70's. His brother Jimmy was a couple years ahead of me in High School.

[@Randa-tv9pm]

Real entertainment ; it brings me back to the 1980’s , Not like today’s junk

[@blangernstein4000]

Bowie had Uncle Floyd on his album toy. Unfortunately the released version brilliant adventures box set does not have this skit on there that sucks balls

[@JerryAGreene]

Need more of these long ones!

[@AnimationReCreation]

5:39 "I'm starting to understand my own show!" Uncle Floyd was great! We loved you on Channel 3 in Cleveland. Keep 'em flying!

[@ChaChiVooDoo]

I laughed like hell when he broke into Everythings Coming Up Roses on the piano lol

[@joelimongelli792]

[@nonyabusiness3605]

[@mgee6331]

[@kiernanthomas6006]

Genuine Entertainment!

[@ih8kit]

Hello Sergeant. Scott Gordon had many great characters during his time on "The Uncle Floyd Show". Dr. Vutztamadda and Chuck Littlehat among them. Mr. Brown Jeans is no exception. Thank you for posting this great video.

[@McNabbulous]

I always loved The Nasty Mailman.

[@ih8kit]

@@McNabbulous Another one of Scott's great characters.

[@scottgordonenterprisesinc.9441]

That's Mr. BrownJEANS.

[@trainer333]

This was fun. I listen to his music show on WFDU for some time. Just found out who he was.

[@CornCod1]

Delightful absurdist fun from the 80's.

Just like old times.

[@zinkazoy]

Hey hey hey hey snap it, pal

[@greenmonsterprod]

From the good old days when local TV & radio stations actually produced their own shows, rather than just be part of a media conglomerate and put on the same programs as everyone else.

[@misterbee4574]

Uncle Floyd can you please upload the Bachagaloops Restaurant commercial. Thank you!

I used to make prank calls in the 1980s and tell them I was from the Uncle Floyd show. No one knew what I was talking about so went into my David Letterman act. I love absurd humor. I have to watch again to figure out just where that puppet went? lol

[@walkergillette3918]
