Ray Charles was laughing so hard that he almost fell out of his chair, especially when Flip leaned on his head and said "Trust me Ray, trust me." Ray is cracking up!
"I must admit, that's kind of a terrible price for me to pay" ,..Ray was smooth with that insult delivery and Flips' facial expression to it wS on point.
Flip, er Geraldine, certainly had the moves that would bring any man to his knees, including the great Ray Charles! This is priceless. We miss you, Flip!
Flip Wison and Ray Charles together! What an entertaining duo! Both have passed away, but we can still laugh and enjoy their comedy act. A retired Catholic priest in Canada.
haha 'Geraldine' started it all back in the day!!! Who didn't love Flip Wilson. My Grandma used to laugh until she cried when GJ appeared each week. Notice how the audience is genuinely roaring with laughter. No 'applause' sign needed, I'm sure. Thanks for this!!!
BOTH WERE SUPER SUPER GREAT. LOVE BOTH OF THEM. GERALDINE, WAS JUST GREAT. LOVED WATCHING HIM. R I P BOTH OF YOU. YOU ARE SO MISSED ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
I absolutely LOVE Geraldine! , I did when a was little girl, and even more now...this is what TV is missing, Flip and Ray are just FANTASTIC, and is it just me, or does Flip have great legs! WOO Tell the truth honey! and sing the song Ray!
I swear, Flip always made me laugh because he was so right about the way women acted when Ray Charles came to town. My mom and her neighbor friends would be in a 'tither'. The men would be laughing at them too, including my Dad. It was hilarious. Geraldine is the start of it all....I sure miss those days of this show. I'd gladly miss a date on those Tuesday nights it came on. I had to see it....
CANDACE, A TIME WHEN ONE ACTUALLY HAD TO BE TALENTED TO BE A STAR. STARS/CELEBRITIES TODAY HAVE CHEAPENED WHAT IT MEANS TO EVEN BE A STAR... THINK KARDASHIAN -FAMOUS FOR NOT A DAMNED THING AND THAT'S HOW MUCH TALENT THEY HAVE NOTHING! BLESS THE GOOD OLD DAYS!!
@@sheg1969 Yes it definitely would have!! He was Gold back in the 70's. Geraldine was Everything. She was so huge, funny and cute, that many people forget that Flip Wilson was underneath the costume. That's how brilliant he was. I'll love him forever.
Geraldine was out of her mind lol. All fast anf sassy. I was a young adult and would schefule my date around Flip Wilson. It was so nice that family would sit togethet snd LAUGH! I miss those days and Mr. Wilson.
You’re’ right. Geraldine was sassy. And so funny. Flip made her so witty, lovable and sexy. What an actor/comic! So pleased to see this clip posted - thank you!
Holy cow, just ran across these recently been laughing my ass off. Takes me back to a much simpler time in life, miss my dad used to watch the show all the time with him.
Flip was so talented! A friend of mine met him when he was performing on a cruise ship. She said he was very nice to all of his fans and so easygoing and approachable. A really nice guy.
OMG! What a crack up. Ray Charles was so good. And who knew Geraldine could sing! I watched this show every week when I was a little kid and LOVED it. Thank-you so much for posting this, it's brought back such great memories.
This was terrific and great TV back in the 60's through to the early 80's. The days of these types of shows are long gone, and most likely never to return...
He sure was. TV comedy shows were better back then there was no profanity on tv. Nowadays every comedian makes disgusting, dirty jokes and they all cuss in their whole show. I wish they would show re-runs of Flip Wilson! He was a great comedian and one of a kind.
Flip Wilson said that he got the nickname of Flip when he was in the Navy from his friends, but I forgot the reason why. Thanks for sharing this great skit of music, and happiness with others. ✌️💞
Dec.8: Happy birthday Mr. Flip Wilson, 2 x Emmy award winner (1933-1998) Thank you and God bless. RIP...thanks for the upload. Blessings...this is classic TV.
What a hoot! God bless them both!! They don't make them like that anymore ....So glad we have these clips!! The other one that is unbelievably hysterical is the one with Flip as Geraldine the Playboy Bunny ...with Bing Crosby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Have and will always love these men. Thank you Ray Charles and Flip Wlson for entertaining us so successfully with your great talents!!! We miss and love you! Continue t o R.I.P.
Ray Charles was laughing so hard that he almost fell out of his chair, especially when Flip leaned on his head and said "Trust me Ray, trust me." Ray is cracking up!
When we first came to Canada we didn’t speak English but my father laughed himself silly just watching Flip. I still love him!
When Jeraldine came on stage in a swim suit, my whole family fell out.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"I must admit, that's kind of a terrible price for me to pay" ,..Ray was smooth with that insult delivery and Flips' facial expression to it wS on point.
When families watched TV together.
A very good point! There are so many forces out there threatening the Family. The Propaganda is everywhere! A retired Catholic priest in Canada.
@ RyanKC, a very good point.
Amen
I miss watching TV is a family too
Aa someone from the UK that is true
We don't have classic comedy like this anymore. Flip Wilson was hilarious!!! RIP Flip and Ray.
So true. We had great entertainment.😊
Wish we had this kind of entertainment TODAY!!!
My entire family was in front of the TV every time Flip Wilson's show aired. I think that was the most I ever heard my Father laugh!
It was so much fun. 😂
Good old days
Yes the good old days!
Always love the flip Wilson show especially when he played Geraldine.
Flip was hilarious!
I can still hear my Dad laughing at this skit 60 years later.
“We don’t just give it to anybody” Brilliant!!
Flip Wilson was one of the funniest comedians of his time! Geraldine always cracked me up! 😂😂🤣🤣
I am nearly 75 and still love these two amazing talents!
"That's a terrible price to pay!" Man, this never gets old!
...and ' I hope somebody else wins the prize next year' ....
😂 👍
Ray Charles in addition to being a super-talent was also a character. He and Geraldine are FUNNY together. RIP Ray Charles and Flip Wilson😍
2dasimmons You’re. Yes. Hi honey
Those were the golden days of comedy.
OH MY GOD THIS NEVER GOING TO COME BACK.......MARVELESS
Flip, er Geraldine, certainly had the moves that would bring any man to his knees, including the great Ray Charles! This is priceless. We miss you, Flip!
Flip Wison and Ray Charles together! What an entertaining duo! Both have passed away, but we can still laugh and enjoy their comedy act. A retired Catholic priest in Canada.
Loved watching The Flip Wilson show back in the day as a child. Not dirty but very cool double entendres. That don’t make em like that anymore.
So nice to see these comments ! I feel xactly the same way as the rest ! We all miss that era ! We sure do .
Miss this show they need to stream it so younger people to see it and laugh.I use to watch it every week when I young . I in my late 60"
I wish some streaming service would show all his episodes. This was one of the best variety shows of its time. Heck, it still holds up.
The FLIP WILSON SHOW is FREE on TUBI
Two legends on the same stage. That was wonderful.
Ray was quite a comedian! Flip was a legend but Ray had a huge sense of humor.. who knew ? 😂
even stevie wonder could see that ray charles was frighteningly talented...
Didn't see Blues Brothers? Ray killed in that movie!😁❤️❤️
I agree about his humor. I heard him quite a bit on interviews say something humorous. He was sly with it 😂😭
@@dixiecyrus8136 😮❤😮
@@rillloudmother in 😅😮 see hi😅
My whole family was buckled over and crying when this was first aired. Richard Pryor and Flip Wilson - two black kings.
Great dancing!!! Geraldine had the moves!! 👩🏾
Ray Charles was having himself a good time!
Wow that brings so much fun time. I am in my 50's but God blessed me with Geraldine!!
Geraldine said Ella Fitzgerald eat your heart out! 😂🤣😂
I love this. So glad Mr. Charles didn't fall off that seat cause he was close to the edge💙

Flip Wilson was so crazy. Loved it
Very. Very. Happens. Nice. Bye. Great

Candace Bennett Amen Candace.
Candace Bennett I hear you
CANDACE,
A TIME WHEN ONE ACTUALLY HAD TO BE TALENTED TO BE A STAR.
STARS/CELEBRITIES TODAY HAVE CHEAPENED WHAT IT MEANS TO EVEN BE A STAR...
THINK KARDASHIAN -FAMOUS FOR NOT A DAMNED THING AND THAT'S HOW MUCH TALENT THEY HAVE NOTHING!
BLESS THE GOOD OLD DAYS!!
Preach on sister!
My uncle was the director of this show . I used to watch re runs go over to his house and ask him about some of the guests on the show .
what would he tell you it was like to work with them?
I have
Wow! Awesome!!!!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂❤ can't get enough of Flip Wilson . 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 soooo funny.
How Ray could sing! It's a bit of fun but he still nailed the vocal as well as any time on stage.
My goodness that was hilarious, I sometimes think I was born in the wrong time.
it's a shame that flip never did a Geraldine movie
That would have rocked!
@@sheg1969 Yes it definitely would have!! He was Gold back in the 70's. Geraldine was Everything. She was so huge, funny and cute, that many people forget that Flip Wilson was underneath the costume. That's how brilliant he was.
I'll love him forever.
June 27, 1974: Flip Wilson Show last airs on NBC TV. Thanks for the memories and R.I.P. Flip. God bless
@Jerry Johnson you are right.
Geraldine is straight comedy this show was so awesome back in the day when the shows were good on 📺.
I actually remember this I feel so sorry for the people that never got to see it it was pure joy
I'm watching it now.
Geraldine was out of her mind lol. All fast anf sassy. I was a young adult and would schefule my date around Flip Wilson. It was so nice that family would sit togethet snd LAUGH! I miss those days and Mr. Wilson.

And Geraldine's facial expression when Ray said it killed me too. ROTFL!
Flip makes me snort laugh. It may not be pretty, but it’s authentic.
Flip was so talented! A friend of mine met him when he was performing on a cruise ship. She said he was very nice to all of his fans and so easygoing and approachable. A really nice guy.
Flip was way ahead of his time. And Pappas Ray is still in the Past Present and Future of our life.
Miss this era so very much! Flip Wilson was Hilarious!!!!
(tongue in cheek)..."We don't give it to just anybody.......(flip of the hair)..."you understand that dontcha Ray?...." HILARIOUS...
Flip Wilson was underrated He was a funny man.
back when fun was fun and not a plot to persuade….
Mark Furrer Doris day
Sweet, sweet memories of my childhood.
