The late 1970s, a unique time in US history when having no holds barred hedonistic fun, parties everywhere and just letting loose was the 'norm' and this total fun filled show was a perfect reflection of society back then!
Being fortunate enough to grow up in the 70’s and watch the Gong Show I never would have bothered to watch nor re-make this classic, you can’t recapture this gem because so much of it was spur of the moment wildness, zaniness, hilarity and magic! The more this show wore on the more crazy it got!! I would love to have access to this gem to watch these old classics now a days… thank goodness for these TH-cam shows and clips!
High Howard at 4:17 he was just getting started with some excellent 'bad' jokes. I wish there was a way to see a whole hour act of this style of humour. Does anyone know if he did anything else? Or a comedian name that i can search??

Can't believe I'm binge watching the gong show 45 years later. lol
I'd gong you for that
You have lots of company!
You're not alone😂
You’re not the only one…in disbelief.
Awesome. So funny. Always loved Gene Gene the Dancing machine.
The Unknown Comic and Gene Gene the Dancing Machine in the same episode?
Gold!
Thanks for uploading these!
Fab edition , this from a energetic amusing anarchy show. Nothing like it since BRAAAAVVOOO!
What great episode, classic GongShow with a little bit of everything
Okay, I swear that's Pat Benatar doing shortening bread XD
Pat on her worst day never looked or sounded anywhere near that rough
AHHHH! The THIRD appearance by The Steppin' Stones!!! I know you have the first, and maybe the second, during High/Low week in August 1976. Thank you!
This show is great and even greater if you are watching it at 4:20 like me....
Reading this at 4:18 am... lo
Always had the hots for Jaye P. Morgan👀👀👀
So much talent
Two tap dancing acts? And the second are like breakdancers. Wild stuff.

Comedy was so zany and off-beat back then! Love it!

Great to see Potsie !!!
The remakes did not have the CHARM of this, the original.

This is all a communist plot.😅 That was so funny.
19:38 Imagine going on TV but your act doesn’t air “due to time limitations” - kinda depressing

...... It was all about Chuck, wasn't it?
He was wonderful to me. 😊
Host looks so high..
That girl is sooo stoned.
A sexy woman singing shortening bread and she gets gonged? Jaye why did you do that?
Her usual (censored) answer would be "Because her tits are bigger than mine".
Cattiness. Only room for one jaye in the nest
This girl appeared several more times. Was she another actress/model/coke whore?
Chuck liked EVERYTHING!!! Ugh.
Yea he was high as fuck
He was a sweetheart, helped me with my career.
He was full of joy, this upsets you ?
@@kristykanen9315 Just annoying.
Yes I'm crazy but that girl Mickey Daniel singing Shortening Bread was very beautiful back then in the day. Can't stop watching her sing.
She can't singbut she was pretty
