I was 4 years old when the show ended & came out the same year I was born in 1972. Fred and Esther 😂😂😂😂😂😂. Clean Comedy back in the day.. My birthday is late in 1972. . Sandford & Son ending in March 25 1977.
I was 12 years old and being a white boy I love Sanford and son and couldn't wait to get home from school to watch it it was hilarious one of the greatest
Aunt Esther is GOLD!!!!!!!! You don't see women like this anymore!!!! I record this all the time, hilarious!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣......YOU OLD BUZZARD🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣!!!!!!!! 🥀🥀🥀🥀... 2022....
Aunt Esther says she's never had a drink of alcohol before, but yet she knows cheap liquor when she tastes it, 😀😄😅🤣. She was always calling her brother in-law cheap...
It's just amazing that on the show they hated each other but in real life they were the best of friends. Truly the best. If wasn't for them as well as George and Florence there would be no Martin and Pam from Martin as well as Al Bundy and Marcy. They perfect the Sitcom Arch nemesis who ranked each other.
I agree. Sadly, they both were underrated. Although they enjoyed moderate success, they earned the networks millions of dollars and got pennies in return. I love this show along with " Thats my mama" Golden age of Hollywood is gone

Just seeing Aunt Ester enter the stage makes me laugh. I don't know how LaWanda Page keeps from lauging. She is so damn good. I caught her stage act on UTube and is is the nastiest I've ever heard. RIP Funny Lady!!
I’m old.....not really bcz the young ppl will be more than willing to put you in your place and tell you “what they feel” too and will SHOW you something that you will never forget...that’s if you live long enough to be older.
This was the golden age of sitcoms. No hidden woke propaganda, no political correctness. Just full blown comedy. I can watch this all day long. Was hilarious when it first was aired and twice as hilarious now. Timeless!
I used to watch Aunt Esther back in the ‘70s and think that LaWanda Page had to be just like her in real life because she played the character so perfectly. Decades later I found out she was very different in her real life stage act!
I was very glad that Redd Fox had LaWanda Page on the show and I think it was great that they were actually best friends and they went to school together and the chemistry that they had so good and may they both Rest In Peace.
Lawanda page really reminds me of my aunt bessie & aunt bertha because they were two auntie that used 2 argue at each other every single day. But it in a funny way
Aunt Esther just made this show more hilarious if that was possible. The episodes with her are my favorites. Grady too. Love, love love Aunt Esther. Such a great actress.
They struck gold when they put these two together.
Aunt Esther was the greatest! She had a withering "stink eye" that could peel paint. I miss television back when it was good.
Her stare could peel a banana and make a banana split!!!!!!
Me, too Cathy Audette
@Tetsujinmustdie Sad but true
"EXACTLY " TV shows were the funniest back then people are "SO SENITIVE" nowadays, things that were said can't be said on TV today
This show was one of the funniest I have ever watched 😅😅Aunt Ester was the Best and Fred 😅😅😅Off the chart Hilarious… 😅
Aunt Esther INVENTED the “the side eye”!!!😂😂😂
It was a mean one too!
Isn't that the truth!🤣🤣🤣
The askance look.
This show went off the air 45 year ago when I was 7. I’m 52, still watching it, and laughing like I did years and years ago.
Me too 👍
I try to watch it when I can
Me too 😂😂😂
Me too. I'm 54 .I missed the good old days when things were much simple.

I love this show Aunt Esther and Fred were pure gold.
They remind me of Martin and Pam
So is Aunt Esther and Grady
@@deniseluckie2606 exactly they sure did.
Not gold, platinum!
@@deniseluckie2606 you mean pam and martin reminds you of them lol
"Now, wait just one chicken pickin' minute, Sucker!" Aunt Esther was the best! Just one perfect member of a brilliant cast!! 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😄😄😄
Oyp
It's about time for a remake of Sanford and Son................ with an all "white" cast.
@@dwarrenliberty717 HELL YEAH I'D WATCH THAT...DEFINETELY...
@@dwarrenliberty717 the British show this was built on, “Steptoe and Son” was.
She was definitely one of the queens of comedy. Just an iconic performance from a seasoned comedienne and actress.
Wonderful love her.
Funny enough, she had no acting experience before this show.
@@Unversed333I just watched her interview... She was such a sweetheart ❤
Sanford and son never gets old I can watch this all day.
Me too😅😅😅
Lamont spitting up and out the punch after Aunt Esther said that Donna's butt was hers had me in stitches!!!!!🤣❤
That was the best 😅
He was probably laughing for real
"Take This WHINO With You " Lol😅😅😅😅😅
"Hi... Uh Uh..."!! "Esther Fool..."!! Classic line, and I loved Grady's goat impression, what Aunt Esther called him and "Old Goat"!!
ESTHER FOOL!!!!! 😂 😂 😂
You can’t help but love Esther! Esther and Fred going back at each other was absolutely great tv.
I LOVE when she said that!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I have to replay it over and over lol
That's my favorite line of Aunt esther Esther Fool 😆
They all grew up togather. If you can find Gradys stand ups he is a riot.
@@ericathewwfwcwdivastraight8906 "Woodrow , put that bottle down before I unscrew your wrists!"
“ Fred, you fish-Eyed fool!”
Esther: "Fred Sanford, the wrath of God will strike you down!"
Fred: "And this Louisville Slugger will knock you out!"
Who was that was Uncle Woody he wasn't the other one
@@garycarpenter2980 They changed actors after this episode and I'm glad because the second one is the real Uncle Woody to me lol.
@@DarlingNikki2Ned the Wino on Gkod Times too.
This was REAL comedy. Great writers, great actors, great show!
To me, Esther was the real star of this show.
Bruh Fred was the star...she pulled up anf you haf two stars
@@DB-sg8ic, exactly, she wasn't even every episode.
So try she was great 👍
100%, she was the best part of the show, but she needed Fred to bounce off to make it screamingly funny!!!!
I agree, she was my favorite on the show.
This will forever be iconic and hilarious. Aunt Esther was the original Madea and we ❤ her.
Yes she was
They were so natural in their acting! Amazing casts, love them all.
the sign of a good actor. these peeps knew exactly what they were doing.
I wouldn't go in your room to save my mama's life!! Cold blooded!! 🤣🤣🤣
What an elegant exquisite actress. She truly is timeless. Unbelievable talent!!!!
6:21
Esther: When you talk to that worm Woody, you tell him 'His behind is grass. And I am the lawnmower.'
😂😂😂😂
Always loved Aunt Esther as much as Fred 😄
RIP Lawanda you were the best, one hell of an actress.
This lady makes me laugh and I mean loud! I love her. God bless and RIP LA Wanda Page.
"When I got back from visiting the sick and the shut-ins".......classic Aunt Esther way of phrasing things.
I was 12 years old and being a white boy I love Sanford and son and couldn't wait to get home from school to watch it it was hilarious one of the greatest
I love the witty comebacks lol especially Redd Foxx and Ester going at it
They were a match made in comedy heaven.
"Esther Fool"
I always loved Aunt Esther ❤
She's always been hilarious 😂
I could watch this whole day and night
Me too.😅😅😅😅😅
I loved Aunt Esther, I could listen to her all day and all night!!!!
Aunt Esther is GOLD!!!!!!!! You don't see women like this anymore!!!! I record this all the time, hilarious!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣......YOU OLD BUZZARD🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣!!!!!!!! 🥀🥀🥀🥀... 2022....
Esther: ‘’That man is the most miserable, sneak, sliding, snake sinner, I’ve ever seen!” 😆😂😆🤣
I don’t know how Lamont kept a straight face during taping without crying laughing 😂
He was a top notch actor, that's why
@@tyronejefforeillyramirez7961 now THAT is funny....
@@GreatNewsVideo he's so good he even fooled you!
You can see when they were all trying to hold in their laughter. I think many of the insults between Fred and Esther weren't scripted.
@@dr.davidjuliusfordjr.6697 actors laugh, not like its a big deal fella.
LaWanda Page is comedic gold... Redd and her banter is HOF
Aunt Esther says she's never had a drink of alcohol before, but yet she knows cheap liquor when she tastes it, 😀😄😅🤣. She was always calling her brother in-law cheap...
I remember that episode:
Aunt Esther: "That's him...cheap, cheap, cheap..."
Fred: "Look at that, the voice of a chicken coming out of a buzzard"
🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂
Let us recognize Redd Foxx for bringing his friends into show biz. Aunt Esther is just one of many who built careers after
a start from the Redd.
Aunt ester can never be replaced. She will never be FORGOTTEN
The verbal battles between Aunt Esther & Fred Sanford, paved the way for Martin Payne & Pamela James on the Martin show.
Exactly. The influence is clearly there. Don't forget George and Florence.
@@jrewing1512 hi JR, what about Archie and Edith? Lol.
@@glenpolen5562 I prefer Archie and Mike.
@@jrewing1512 haaaa haaaa, oh yes. Most definitely. Lol.
I almost forgot about meathead mike and how bad he riled up Archie.
Good 👍 call. Thanks.Glen
@@glenpolen5562 No problem. They don't make good old sitcoms like these.
This is the best comedy show ever!!!!!!!
I loved this show, oh how I would turn back time just to bring back all the shows from my younger years.
As a white boy for the 80s. Loved aunt Easter on this show. Lot's of laughs.
ESTHER FOOL 🗣
@@allegedlyspeaking9102"Thank you baby" 😂

Masterpiece and pure gold best show ever
All these years later this is still hilarious
8:25 Esther: "Oh Woodrow, what must we do?!" Woodrow calmly:"Wipe off all the fingerprints and get the heck outta here." ROFL
ABSOLUTELY LOL 😆😆😆😄
Love how a few people can put out some videos to give us a laugh in todays world, Thank You!
“Sanford & Son” was so funny and had so much dialogue, it could have passed for a radio show!!
My grandparents were Fred and Esther in the flesh! They roasted each other just like this.
RIP
Man I'm sure it was good times 🤣🤣🤣
Lucky grandkids! I read the three stooges pulled off all those capers for their kids, too!
I lost it when he called her a baboon dressed like a parrot 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂☠️
"Watch it Sucka!"

Absolutely agree!!!
Along with Niles and CC
@@maryexstroughtonaire4244 except they didn't fall in love like Niles and Cc.
@@jrewing1512 Chicken!
Can never get enough of this show. Watch reruns all the time. Esther and Fred were great.
From what I’ve heard Aunt Ester and Fred Sanford were the best of friends in real life. You can actually see the chemistry.
Absolute comedic genius. One would never believe that they were lifelong friends in life.
Lawanda Page was the BLK Queen of comedy. I'm glad Redd Foxx hand picked his childhood friend to play his hated arch-enemy on the show.
I agree. Sadly, they both were underrated. Although they enjoyed moderate success, they earned the networks millions of dollars and got pennies in return. I love this show along with " Thats my mama"

Those clips showing Lamont cracking up and spitting out his beverage are awesome.
LOVE HER ACTING SHES AWESOME ❤❤❤❤❤
The way Esther grabbed a hold of Woodrow and dragged him out of the house was hilarious.
I loved Aunt Esther. She was so funny.
“Woodrow! Put that bottle down before I unscrew your wrist!!”
Been a lot of terrible changes in this modern world but Redd foxx is one of the greatest of all time.
I grew up too this show I can't get enough
" Wipe off all finger prints than get the heck out of hear!"😭
Almost 50 years later and this is still funny 😂😂
I would love to see the outakes n bloopers maaan!!! "You old Fisheyed Fool!"
My favorite insult from her!
Just the belly laugh I needed this morning. Thank you Aunt Esther and Fred.
She made the show, I just adored her
There will never be another Redd Foxx without a doubt he is a legend!!
Most definitely
I'm one of the biggest Fans of this show. My favorite comedy. Ever 👍👌💯☺️☺️
Aunt Esther was awesome!
My favorite one is the Grip Matlock episode! Where Lamont tells Dad that he loves him!
She was hilarious in the 70s, and she's hilarious now. LaWanda, God Bless you!
....Great Memories!!!!....Thanks for Sharing!!!(😊😊😊)
Hi Gwen how are you doing
There was never a episode with Fred and Esther that didn't have me laughing.
Just seeing Aunt Ester enter the stage makes me laugh. I don't know how LaWanda Page keeps from lauging. She is so damn good. I caught her stage act on UTube and is is the nastiest I've ever heard. RIP Funny Lady!!
They had to do outtakes it happens on all shows .
Oooooo! Gotta go see! Thanks!
"Esther Fool" 😂
A comedic legend playing an iconic character!!! 😂💯💯💯
LaWanda Page was great in the role of Aunt Esther.
I died when Lamont lost it at Fred and Donna's would be wedding!!!!!🤣❤
My fave Auntie ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️💯.
Thank you so much, I needed this!!!! This is priceless and a blessing😊🤣🙏❤
I still enjoy these episodes. I look forward to getting old, you can say what you really feel 😊

Woodrow said wipe the finger prints off & get the heck up out of here 😂😂😂
This was a time that we all laughed and forgot what color we were. Sanford and Son I thank u for all the laughs.
This was the golden age of sitcoms. No hidden woke propaganda, no political correctness. Just full blown comedy. I can watch this all day long. Was hilarious when it first was aired and twice as hilarious now. Timeless!
I just love myself some Fred Sanford, Good Time, The Jeffersons All those black sitcoms.
And even through it's not A black sitcom-The golden girls is great.
Good Times was depressing
Me too
@@darrylperry9798 is this pastor from Camden Alabama

LaWanda didnt simply don a wig and a thrift store dress and learn a few lines--she BECAME aunt Esther, and she made it look easy. RIP.
Love that Aunt Esther “Watch It Sucker”
And "You ole fish eyed fool!" and "You ole beady eyed , fish eating fool!"

And you can see what a handsome woman she was- they played that down for Esther.
Loved the show always, kept me laughing for many years!
