Without a doubt, one of the best shows ever!!! RIP to the cast!!! THANKS FOR POSTING...
I agree. They never show re-runs on television and this is a shame.
Good clean comedy no profanity, that is why I love it
None allowed.
This show is no different than The Honeymooner's, The Flintstones or The Three Stooges. I love looking at Amos and Andy episodes ♥️
I know you are kidding, all people of color was work to be a underclass .
I used to watch these as a kid. I saw nothing offensive about them.
Yes. Love the honeymooners
Love honeymooners. Once when audience appreciation and laughs was lessened
@@jeffreyberkin-ez3uhthey were just comedy performers at their best. It's a shame the boulies(uppity negroes)of the naacp overreacted like the jerks they were.
They were wonderful and they should be on the air now , I and millions more really loved them, they were so talented and funny!!
Loved these old shows. Just yesterday I was talking to an old friend about Amos 'N' Andy and the Kingfish and now I get to watch it. My dad used to like this show and others like it. He would laugh and laugh and I would laugh along with him . Good clean entertainment.
Kingfish is iconic and hysterical.
THIS FILM HAD ME CRAAKING UP & THE BEAUTY ABOUT THESE FILM IT'S VERY CLEAN ,I CAN SIT WITH MY CHILDREN & ENJOY THEM.
I remember listening to them on the radio before the TV show. Yeah, I'm old.👋🏿
Gosden and Correll!
I listened to them on radio and watched on tv in late 40's and early 50's as a kid and I loved them. Couldn't wait for 6:30pm on Sundsy night in Texas for the show to come on.
This is a great show which also highlights the great comedy level of all the actors involved in the show....
I love this show it makes me laugh it's good clean comedy these actors were good actors and my grandmother and mother fell off the chair laughing at this when I was growing up.
I LOVE THIS SHOW AND THE ACTORS. THEY DID A GREAT JOB 👍.
Terrific writing and acting!!!!
This show is better than anything on TV today. Even though it was made in the early fifties. Kingfish was one of the funniest characters EVER on TV. I never realized, when I was a kid, that one day I would be watching it on my phone!!😅
Great comedian back in my when I was a kid hearing on the radio with my parents 😅😊thanks for sharing this
Ernestine Wade as Sapphire in this TV series was such a delight.
The most amusing scenes of her was when she'd turn from being jovial to hostile in a heartbeat, and do it convincingly. That took exceptional acting talent.
Thanks for saying her name, she is a beautiful great actress!
Ernestine reminds alot of the very attractive and talented actress, Lynn Hamilton, of Sanford and Son.
These guys are so talented it's not funny. They're absolutely hilarious.
The writers then staff carry’s it out. .
Hilarious black sitcom from yesteryear. The actors were fantastic and the portrayal of blacks in America at that time was respectful and funny!
Yeah. The wife works while the man doesn't provide for his family. And the wife mean black woman supporter with her lazy black man. Lmao!!!!
Great Portrayal lol
That's just Kingfish with his nutty schemes. It's a comedy, you need characters like that. The rest of the characters were gainfully employed.
Amos and Andy and The Honermooners were my favorite shows growing up.
Love when the RUclips algorithm leads me to gems like these.
Every since the pandemic I’ve became a fan of King Fish
Kingfish has a way of making the world seem a better place.....
@@charlescarter5335 Holy Mackeral! 🐟
He would have been delighted. He spent over fifty years as a comic, from minstrelsy to vaudeville, burlesque and musical comedy.
HOLY MACKAL, SAPPHIAH!!!😅😅😅
I never missed this show when i was a kid. I used to love it, and watching this video brings it all back. Its just so darn funny, and all clean humor.
You have to be 70 to 90 years old.
@@AmisH-q4h yup! 81
I often heard this was one of the funniest shows ever and the first to have African American actors as the characters and to use multi cameras,the shot of king fish walking down the street after working all day was genius
Kingfish was my favorite! 😂🤣😂🤣
Love is old show i we use to watch them with my great grandfather miss him so much 😢
I use to listen to this on the radio when he I was a child. It was my favorite show.
I am an old man now...71 if you please. I remember when the NAACP amongst others finally had Amos n Andy removed from the tv waves. When I married in '72 and started having children I made sure my kids saw these wonderful talented black actors. They were some of the most talented people in television and were denied the fame and fortune so well deserved. Old,white southern man...me...and I had/have the utmost respect for the crew of Amos n Andy!
The radio version used white actors. The TV version was funnier. All the dufus liberal activists accomplished by ending the show was to put several fine actors out of work.
At least on TV they were black. It was the white people who were the "extras".
Thank you for letting the public watch this wonderful episode. It's hard not to laugh out loud at all the silliness. One joke really blew my mind. At 9:14-9:20, Andy said he spent two terms in the second grade. Wilson's and Coolidge's. I said out loud, 'wait a minute, Andy, don't you mean three terms?!? You forgot Harding!!!' 🤣🤣🤣
This is really quite a clever episode.
right away this reminded me of The Jeffersons tv show "movin' on up!
George Jefferson is also named George
The Great Tim Moore Powerful actor . I’d hate to play opposite him ❤️
My late dad told me of these films I'll watch and think of him 🤔🤔🤔
Same here bro. R.I.P. to your Dad 🙏🏾
Amos and Andy show back in my Childhood days was a great comedy show and it still is a great comedy show no sexual activity and etc.
The self righteous critics of this show thought that they were serving the cause of anti-racism when they forced it off the air, when in fact, they were denying these struggling actors from making a living!
Thank you, I agree!
I know it's hard to Live in a world when its Evil around us day and night? But the key is just be the best person you can be and trust the Words of Jesus Christ and don't do Evil and not hate anyone or judge anyone. The World can't change neither Repent before Jesus Christ? If you don't believe in Jesus Christ I'm not talking too you so keep your comments to yourselves? Believe what you want to believe until you take your last breath on this 🌎.
Look
Sounds about White
@@Torrebrannon it's one of the worst attacks on black creative film art in our history.
ANDY: "I spent two terms in the second grade. Yeah, Wilson's and Coolidge's." That is absolutely brilliant comedy! Many other sitcoms were and are humorous. Amos N' Andy was hilarious.
Yes. Exceptional.
@@phylis3917that two terms in the second grade, Wilson's&Coolidge's was past funny.
What a great show they don’t make shows like this anymore I have a collection of these shows in my dvd collection
Kingfish makes laugh so hard, he is such a gamer
Saw this when I was a kid. Still funny.
When comedians didn’t rely on profanity and pornography. No violence,, respect for marriage and women, dressed well. Amos and Andy were stars and enjoyable to watch. Classic series competitive with I Love Lucy and others of that generation.
IMO, there was no competition at all. Amos and Andy were the first and the best.
Censorship was strictly enforced.
A great show gone with the wind😢😢
this is one of my favorite shows now .. fresh episode ? im all on it
Geeking when I saw Rolly from Amen
Thank you for that information.
I said that he looked like someone I knew.
Rosetta Lenoire who played Carl Winslow's mother on Family Matters
Home study BEFORE the internet!😂😂 Way ahead of his time the Kingfish was.
Good clean comedy. This is excellent family entertainment. It’s better than anything on television in 2024. 😊
This show was the black Honeymooners. Amos and Andy, set the stage for later shows, Sanford & Son, The Jefferson’s and Martin
ruclips.net/video/-ItK0WR09_Y/видео.html
Jackie Gleason stole the idea for the Honeymooners from Ralph Cooper - was a Black man.
I think you mean the honeymooners was the white Amos n Andy. Amos n Andy was first.
.. ... .. ..
I love Calhoun's "oh man yeah!"
A very funny comedy back in the day. Always watched Amos and Andy with the Kingfish who usually was the center of attention……in the early ‘50s. 😂😂😂
I have several VCR tapes have they shows and they are Priceless to me Tim Moore belongs in the Walk of Fame and I guess all these actors belong in the Walk of Fame this was a special show and I wish the n-double-acp had thought to take it off the air these actors were done an injustice they be long in African-American history and should be recognized
Man was this rite here th' good stuff or what??? I [thankfully} have this whole series on dvd.
I watched this as a young kid and loved it. I knew the actors were black but didn’t think much about it. Mostly what I knew was they were funny. The whole show was based on a freeloader and how he worked harder getting out of work than he would have by working. I’ve known more than one person like that in my life and most were white. Funny has no race, creed, or color.
Love their talent shown
I love this show I wish they had not taken it off the tv I am going to buy their DVDs,so I can watch day and night
Amazon sell the entire series...if there's anymore left...kinda pricey,but worth it ‼️ 😉
"The Andy Griffith Show" would have been a lot funnier if Andy and Barney had talked like Kingfish and Andy Brown. 😂
Kingfish - the best
Kingfish was a Con Artist and Andrew J. Brown was his mark. Nothing racist about that. This show showed black people as Doctors, lawyers, Judges and business people. Compare that to movies like Pulp Fiction and how black people are portrayed in them.
There should be reruns on TV.
Not in this day and age, brother.
Why
Andy Brown must have run out money for the kingfish to be in this shape.
Thank you for sharing your videos
Comedy at it’s best, 😊
OH WOW! I didn't know I could see Amos 'n' Andy again. 👍👍👍👍
Mam, I used to watch them as a kid. Mostly reruns, I guess.
I was born in '52. I just checked, it ran for 9 years. I loved that show.
That was one of the best things on TV. I'm sure it would have gone longer
if those fools, who never saw it, had not raise a stink, about it being
racist. Which it was NOT. I was really sad, when it went off.
I alkeral Andyways remembered that famous phrase....."Holy Mackeral Andy". LOL
I meant I always remembered that famous phrase....."Holy Mackeral Andy"
this was on radio and early b&w tv
Is that employment counselor the same Raleigh Forbes of Amen?
Yes, that's Jester Hairston.
Good laughs from the real OG’s
Blessings for this
Here’s how you can tell a classic.
When you re-watch it it’s just as good each time.
Loved the ending 🤣
There wouldn’t be a Spike Lee or Tyler Perry, if it wasn’t for pioneering black directors… Spencer Williams and Oscar Micheaux
I loved it as a kid and love it now.
Love these…I appreciate our people from the older days. The guy looks like Raleigh from Amen.
@Walt M That IS RALEIGH FROM AMEN
@@modernvintage3226 Thanks, alot of people don't know anything about this or Amen.
That is him.
@@modernvintage3226 I thought it was "Rollie" he appears on several episodes as a fill-in guest and character
@@waltm.6107 that's Rollie from AMEN and Karl Winslow's mother appears in episodes of A&A.
Spencer Williams. One of the greats. Actor and director. Made a film called, 'The Blood Of Jesus' that was a direct rebuttal to 'Birth Of A Nation'. Only discovered in full in the 1980's.
Kingfish wears his suit all the time. No uniform for washing windows. I have some relatives like him, lol.
“The new siesta” ha ha. Malapropisms galore 😂
I wished I grew up watching these kinds of black movies
These shows were on tv when I was a child.

@@JaneFrieman I was born in 1958 I enjoyed watching it with my great grandmother she was born 1894, great family fun snacking on iced cinnamon raisin bread. Gramma was the best.
24:20 wow! I didn't know they had contact lenses back then.
@24:20 Harlem had everything. They should teach about the Harlem Renaissance.
Love the suits. Men dressed up in the 1950s.
22:18 the guy talking to Andy also appeared in the film Manchurian Candidate as a psychologist playing opposite Frank Sinatra.
You're right, Cedric. That's Joe Adams. He used to manage Ray Charles.
That looked like a T-bone steak on the Kingfish's plate!
Good stuff!!!
Grew up loving Amos and Andy
Today's preachers took notes by watching Kingfish in action. Give me your money-ah and I'll save your soul-ah.
Nice to see someone is awake ❣️ Our community back then was so glad to see our faces on tv that they would laugh at things they did not understand…..WE LAUGHED AT THE IMAGE THAT WE WERE GIVEN…I GREW UP WATCHING THIS…LITTLE RASCALS…. I’m 71 , and still have a problem listening to FAKE LAUGHTER❗️IT WAS CALLED ENTERTAINMENT IN THE HOUSEHOLD . IN THE CHURCH IT WAS INDEED SINFUL TO ENTERTAIN SUCH BEHAVIOR. YES WE LAUGHED UNTIL WE CRIED…WE HAVE BECOME SO BRAIN WASHED AND BRAIN DEAD THAT WE CAN’T HEAR “OUR CHILDREN CRYING “ WAKE UP‼️
Thankfully, many preachers of today teach true Bible principles. For example, salvation comes from putting one's faith/beliefs in Jesus.
Amos n Andy and the Honeymooners are great shows
I use to watch them as a small child.
very grateful watching this makes me a bit more american -
i missed amos & andy
only heard about it.-
I love this series.. lòok forward to watching a series
Everyday
The actor in the employment office is Jester Hairston, from the Sherman Hemsley show Amen. Also, he did the singing for Sidney Poitier in Lillie’s of the field.
This comedy is what lead Martin Lawrence and others to the stage of comedy.
You can definitely see the influence on Sanford and Son, Jefferson's,both Red Foxx and Marla Gibbs were fans
"Don't cattle come in one piece anymore?"
One of my favorite show ever growing up

loved this show
It was a really good show I see no racism it at all
Let me guess, you're not Black?
Your so right I've seen all 72 or more episodes so so funny
That’s Raleigh Walters
Who is Raleigh Walters?
BLESSED DAY STAY SAFE
Comedy!
Never seen any of these episodes before, saw Kingfish teaches Andy to Fly, ohhh lawdddd😅😅😅😅 watching this one, my.2nd episode
Love this show, one of the funniest shows ever. One thing I always wondered, why they called it Amos and Andy when Kingfish was the primary character.🤔 I guess Andy and Kingfish just didn't have that ring!
They should have called it Kingfish and Andy all the shows are about kingfish
Amen character
Rollie Forbes
Nice reaction King fish?But Andy got it just right?Only a fool,breaks is own heart.
Thanks for?Real Black. Great.
