Geraldine Jones arrives at the gym of Joe, famous QB guest star. She's applying for a training position, after all she's very experienced in physical culture
My dear friend your line was simply brilliant thank you for the laugh it just made my immune system a hell of a lot stronger I’d like to buy you a drink
Flip Wilson is a icon! He can never be replaced! So sad that he died so young! He makes a great Geraldine Jones! He looks so good as a girl! He will be missed!!
Geraldine is perfection. This skit was hilarious, I bet Flip added a few extra laughs to crack Joe up. And who are the 23 trolls who didn't like our favorite 70s diva?
I NERVER EVER MISSED THIS SHOW AND REMEMBER THIS SKIT ON TV.....SO FUNNY HILLARIOUS AND JUST KEPT ON LAUGHING THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE SEGMENT! GERALDINE , WHO SAID YOU COULD CALL ME GERALDINE??? Miss JONES TO YOU HONEY!
All I can say is back in the day, Broadway Joe was FINE! (And check out that package - as Geraldine would say: "Honey, from this view, you must be delivering for Fed Ex!")
Flip was AWESOME--it's a shame that a lot of younger people don't know about him--he was a brilliant comedian (or should I say comedienne LOL!!) Best part of this sketch is Namath--he's a great sport and it looks like he's having a lot of fun playing along with Flip!!
This classic " Geraldine " made Flip a SUPERSTAR! In 1970 Flip Wilson was the 1st PERSON of color to be on the COVER of TIME Mag. !! True story! He was a wonderful comic! George Carlin was a close friend of Flip too! I am now 54 and remember watching this classic show with Nick Sr. and he was a rough bastard to me most of the time..( he was out of my life when I was 14)..*..but MY best memories of my father , were when he would LAUGH is east coast hardy laugh ( born in Boston Mass.).... laugh his ass off, he was happy for that moment and that always made me happy as an 8 year old..then " All in the Family' and the " Dean Martin Roast"" as I got older....Flip Wilson had Namath rolling here! Beautiful memories for me!
@@depaola63 That would have been Haile Selassie Time cover in 1930, Jackie Robinson, 1950, preceded by opera singer Marion Anderson in 1946. MLK, 1964 Man of the Year cover. Loved Flip, but you gave him a little too much credit.
If you notice, the Geraldine character was the most flirtatious character in television history LOL. She knew how to whip it! Mr. Wilson did leave a daughter that looks a lot like him. I still miss this man; he bought us so much joy and laughter . My mother, father, sisters and brothers would all wait for this show and I'd hold off on a date so as not to miss it. It was always rumored that Mr. Wilson was also one of the nicest people around. I love him. RIP
My cousin said he was one of the nicest people she had ever met!! While waiting for my Aunt to come to the bar from their hotel suite, and empty seat next to my cousin became available at the bar! My cousin was about 37 blond sexy as all get out and loved talking w Flip after he introduced himself to my cousin in about 1971! They spoke for a while in fact until my cousin had to leave but before she left he asked her for her phone number!!! And she said NO!!!!!! UGH!! SO DISAPPOINTED WHEN SHE SAID THAT.........
@@henry12397 Ha ha. Well, ca cera cera on that lol. When I was 7 or 8 my sister took me to see him (his jokes were that clean). He made it big after that great show. He is missed.
I love that he played Geraldine with dignity. 'Her' clothes were always fashionable and coordinated. The funny thing is, Flip made a pretty good woman and he played it straight. I'll bet that lead to some nervous laughs from guests! Flip Wilson was a genious. Geraldine (Flip) was sexy, confident and funny as anything without being profane. Today's comics could learn something from him.
No one comedian ever made me laugh like Flip did....I love comedians ...all of them!!! But Flip was the one who made me laugh out loud! He was sensational....A Killer comedian!!!!!!!
I remember The Flip Wilson Show so well even though I was a small child. Geraldine was my ultimate favorite!!!! I even had the Flip Wilson/Geraldine doll that talked........great memories. PS - Geraldine was a fashion icon! She was always sharp!
Flip Wilson was so funny , Joe was laughing all through this. I remembered when this first aired , laughed just as hard watching this again , love Joe then & now 💚❤
My mom used to get him giggling fits.. like real laughing attacks watching flip Wilson in between sip and my mom the whole family would be bent over laughing for that whole hour.. there's a place in my heart just for Flip❤️
My dear friends no matter how many times we watch this it always makes us laugh flip and Joe were brilliant the flip Wilson show was timeless I remember it as a kid I watched it all the time and here I am 63 years old watching it again in Costa Mesa California I call this the quarantine killer thank you my dear friends!!!!,!
When I saw Mr. Wilson in person it was just his regular stand up comedy. It was a few years before he went to television. A lot of fine, great comedians were found in the late sixties. :)
Geraldine had it going on! Lol. This too was our family night and when Flip Wilson came on, our dates could NOT take us out til this was over. Then we would go out for 2 hours because I worked. Life and television was soooo good!
This is CLASSIC !! ...I am now 55 and remember this GREAT show as a kid !!....TIME MAG. had Flip Wilson on the cover in 1970 ! ....( fyi~ Namath threw " darts " in his prime !! I love how Joe laughs is ass off here !
Everytime I walk pass a guy that I think is hot, I mentally do that little dance Geraldine always does X-P "In the booth. . .in the back. . .in the corner. . .in the dark. . ." ^_^ LOL
"You don't know me" "Honey.. if Killer knew about this" Oh my gosh.. I remember this skit.. "In the booth, in the back, in the corner, in the dark" "Call me from the police station"
I remember seeing this when it was first broadcast, and I remember Joe laughing. Well, can you blame him? I admire Flip Wilson for not cracking up, too. He has marvelous composure. And he's actually a very good actor/female impersonator. I've seen sassy women just like that. Excellent!
Oh my gosh! I haven’t seen Geraldine since I was a kid! Loved this then and loved it now! Hilarious. I’m 55 and I remember my parents thinking she, oops, I mean HE was great.
I’ve read & heard several sources that say Flip Wilson would rehearse these sketches wearing his regular clothes. He wanted to catch the guests off guard during the show when he appeared wearing Geraldine’s clothes.

Joe didnt stand a chance , holding in his laughter
Joe could run down a football field but Geraldine just disabled him with her jokes.
I always remember him busting out laughing during that skit- that was just as funny as Geraldine’s lines!
Flip Wilson was one of the most brilliant comedians of all time.
I definitely agree he was in the top 5. He was absolutely crazy!
Miss Geraldine, she and Madea would have made a great movie
I wrote him a fan letter in 4th grade and he sent me an autographed picture
No doubt about it!
Yes, he was fantastic. His show should have never ended.
Geraldine's entrances were always hysterical!!
Geraldine swagger and inuendos ......she was so incomparable!!!!
And I Love it RIP FLIP WILSON 🕊️❤️🕊️
@@henry12397 lll
Totally!!! 😂
Geraldine rocks my world lol! Namath can't keep it together! I can't blame him hahaha
Hard to believe Namath is now selling hearing aids!! He was so handsome back in the day!
"He marched down the football field of my heart, and tore down the goal post of my love!" That line cracks Joe up!!!!
Dear PAC Romano ~ It Cracks ME Up, As Well!! Priceless!!
~That was Sooooo-funny.....love flip
Oh gawd that was so INCREDIBLY written!!! Funniest program ever on tv!!!!
@@henry12397 I Agree Awesome 👍 Flip had a Wonderful Smile Love it ❤️
So funny!
Joe looks like he is barely holding it together.
No sex, no race, no religion, no cursing. Just good clean fun, Carol Burnett, Flip Wilson and Ed Sullivan. Good clean family fun
Clean?! Did you even watch the video
Someone Else ... Compared to today, this was Disney. Still hilarious.
Exactly
Flip Wilson was a dream.....I am so glad I lived in his time....
@@jaysonbiggs8979 yeah...that's why YOU'RE here buttwipe.
‘ . . . Honey, you should’ve left before her husband got there!’😂😆😂😆😆
This is so wonderful, both of them are so good! Thanks for posting! Such Fun!!
Joe was gorgeous. His laugh is so natural it makes me smile😊 I love to see him break character with Geraldine.
This was/is my favorite Geraldine episode. Love the way Joe couldn't help laughing. "You should've left before her husband got home"🤣🤣🤣
What is his full name?
Flip could rock a skirt better than some of the women I know!
hautetamale The costumes were custom made
My dear friend your line was simply brilliant thank you for the laugh it just made my immune system a hell of a lot stronger I’d like to buy you a drink
Flip Wilson is a icon! He can never be replaced! So sad that he died so young! He makes a great Geraldine Jones! He looks so good as a girl! He will be missed!!
I know right.
Long before Martian
Indeed! He had better looking legs than a lot of women!
Geraldine is perfection. This skit was hilarious, I bet Flip added a few extra laughs to crack Joe up. And who are the 23 trolls who didn't like our favorite 70s diva?
The 23 are probably politically correct trolls. PS i wish Broadway Joe would have run for President rather than u know who !
@@hilaryapril7043 What You Said!
Ikr😂🤣😂🤣
I still remember Joe Namath cracking up when he did this skit years ago when I was just a little kid
I NERVER EVER MISSED THIS SHOW AND REMEMBER THIS SKIT ON TV.....SO FUNNY HILLARIOUS AND JUST KEPT ON LAUGHING THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE SEGMENT! GERALDINE , WHO SAID YOU COULD CALL ME GERALDINE??? Miss JONES TO YOU HONEY!
No one today like Flip Wilson....>>Joe either
I remember watching Flip Wilson when I was growing up. The show is still as funny. Really good comedy.
Geraldine was the best. A classic. Flip was one of the best of best.
All I can say is back in the day, Broadway Joe was FINE! (And check out that package - as Geraldine would say: "Honey, from this view, you must be delivering for Fed Ex!")
Yuuuuup
why can't we have these types of show anymore, im 22 but i hate my generation, everything is sexual
True.
I agree completely!!
So blessed to have such wonderful comedy as a child !!!
Without CORRUPTION.
Flip was AWESOME--it's a shame that a lot of younger people don't know about him--he was a brilliant comedian (or should I say comedienne LOL!!) Best part of this sketch is Namath--he's a great sport and it looks like he's having a lot of fun playing along with Flip!!

I've seen women act just like her during my time. We had a neighbor we called Miss Mary who actually looked like her!
Geraldine is a riot. There's nothing on television today that is as funny.
+ann landers AMEN!!
You got that right! I cancelled cable years ago. Nothing but boring or filthy garbage.
I’ll just watch RUclips.
Flip is crackin' poor Joe up!
Hollywood Flip Wilson and Redd Foxx were my dad and uncle's favorite. I miss them both.
"In the booth, in the back, in the corner, in the dark", haven't heard that lines in ages!LOL!
She was the original Shanaynay and Wanda
And Madea...
Not to mention Joanne
k jay Got that right
Who's KILLER? Honey, he marched down the football field of my heart and tore down the goalpost of my love! OOOH! TOUCHDOWN!
Ronald Woodard I think Flip ad libbed that coz of Joe cracking up laughing! Hilarious

@lillianmunster4734 So true.
And August 2024! I was a small child back in the day, but I knew the Geraldine skits were a hoot!

You don't know me that well! Geraldine always had that bit of class lol
ohsnapiam59 Sassy too!
Flip is the only man who played a woman with class and dignity! I loved Ms. Geraldine Wilson.
@@james-p yu don't know me that well!!!
"Let's cut out the all of the faking and get on with the shaking! LOL ! Flip Wilson was great!

In the booth in the back in the corner in the dark 😂😂😂
In the booth, in the corner, in the back, in the dark. Lol
Flip Wilson was probably the funniest comedian of all time.

No one comedian ever made me laugh like Flip did....I love comedians ...all of them!!! But Flip was the one who made me laugh out loud! He was sensational....A Killer comedian!!!!!!!
@@henry12397 I Agree with Ya Byron 💯👏❤️

PS - Geraldine was a fashion icon! She was always sharp!
"I'm not a football man, I'm a man fan" lol lol
Football fan**
The golden age of television, no canned laugh tracks, live, raw and dangerous.
I love how Flip cracks up Joe. Classic!
seeing joe namath laugh like that made it all the more funny
Right, because it's genuine.
@@lenevee4925 he was a good sport. knew his lines too . yes it was genuine acting too

Personally I think this is the best flip wilson sketch ever!!! Joe totally loses it!!! funniest ever!!!!!!!
This was a good show. Flip Wilson always had a stardom show.
love this sooo much!!! Joe was so handsome and funny!!!
"Don't get behind me...I know about them quarterback sneaks!"
Lmao
Flirtatous, funny comedy, innuendo at it's finest, sexy without being vulgar, I miss those days.
The way Flip talked and moved (even in drag!) showed how smooth, awesome, and talented he was. RIP, man.
Poor Joe, breaking character with Geraldine Jones' character! God Bless
When I saw Mr. Wilson in person it was just his regular stand up comedy. It was a few years before he went to television. A lot of fine, great comedians were found in the late sixties. :)
that jim brown joke is a classic
Poor Joe can barely keep a straight face and stay in character, Watch it, what you see
ain't exactly what you get.
I can’t take it. I have watched it several times and I still can’t take it. It just kills me. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😅
I'm Lovin'it THIS tooooooo 👍💯👏❤️
Wow, so glad some folks recorded Geraldine! I loved Flip Wilson!
this was good, I loved Flip
Flip Wilson was a one man comedian team
I Agree 💯👍 Missing Ya
FLIP and Geraldine Jones

Everytime I walk pass a guy that I think is hot, I mentally do that little dance Geraldine always does X-P "In the booth. . .in the back. . .in the corner. . .in the dark. . ." ^_^ LOL
I had not seen this in close to 50 years and believe it or not I still remembered that line word for word.
"It's 10% bever" I think that went over the audiences head.
maybe considered vulgar back then but compared to today's standards it's very tame and very funny.
I want to be good so I can go to heaven and watch Geraldine all over again . Thanks for the video.
classic gem
i loved Flip Wilson; this one with Joe Namath is one of my favorites.
No Matter How Many Times We Watch This Brilliant Skit !!!!! It ALWAYS MAKES US LAUGH,!!!,!,! ManyThanx From Costa Mesa Ca!!!,,!,❤️❤️❤️❤️😂😂😂🍻🍻😍👍
man this is classic. my mom, dad sister and home laughing
Flip Wilson must be one of the funniest people who ever lived!
Yes he is.
"You don't know me"
"Honey.. if Killer knew about this"
Oh my gosh.. I remember this skit..
"In the booth, in the back, in the corner, in the dark"
"Call me from the police station"

THAT, is a classic line !!
you should have left before her husband got there. lol.
Flip was awesome
Yessss 👍 I AGREE 💯
5:46 is classic - Joe cannot help himself from laughing throughout most of this sketch.
one of the best skits ever.
Flip Wilson was “Madea” 40 years before Tyler Perry. Tyler should be paying royalties to the late, great Flip Wilson’s estate.
It's 2022.....50 years later.... still funny... good clean entertainment
Yessss I Agree in 2023
Lovin'it 👏❤️⭐❤️⭐❤️
Isn't that the same coat he wore to the 2014 SuperBowl for the coin toss? LOL
Classic beyond light years,,.. That hair do is the best. I loved this time in life. Comedy was not raunchy. Flip was very talented.
Back when TV was great. So much better than the trash today.
Flip was NO MISS TV ! Hilarious- love his ad libs & who doesn't love Broadway Joe?🤩😍🥰
"Stop all the faking, and get on with the shaking." Classic 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is what you call a backfield in motion.
SUCH A FUNNY FUNNY LINE!!! OH MY GOODNESS!!!
Oh my gosh! I haven’t seen Geraldine since I was a kid! Loved this then and loved it now! Hilarious. I’m 55 and I remember my parents thinking she, oops, I mean HE was great.
Just laughing my ass........OFF!!!
"Dont Fight The Feeling! Whooo!" HAAHAA
