The Flip Wilson Show(1970)
The Flip Wilson Show is a variety series that aired on NBC from 1970 to 1974, starring comedian Flip Wilson in a groundbreaking role as the first African American to headline a successful network variety program. The hour-long show featured rapid-fire sketches and pioneered a Theatre-in-the-Round stage format, with audiences seated on all sides of the circular performance area. Wilson's most memorable creations were Geraldine Jones, a sassy modern woman with a boyfriend named Killer, and Reverend Leroy, the dubious minister of the Church of What's Happening Now. Wilson's infectious catchphrases—"What you see is what you get" and "The devil made me do it!"—became cultural touchstones. During its first two seasons, the show ranked as America's second most-watched program, cementing Wilson's status as a transformative figure in American television comedy.
