I got to know The Uncle Floyd Show when it aired on WSBK in Boston, which we got on cable back in 1982. This show was and remains a personal favourite!
It was incredibly demented! One skit which got Floyd Vivino in trouble was "The Joe Frankfurter Show," in which he would do a parody of talk show host Joe Franklin. Reportedly, Mr. Franklin got very upset! Still, when I saw it, it was hilarious!
I also remember the music skit, "Abbott Presley," obviously a takeoff on Elvis Costello, and there were other skits. Clearly, it was an irreverent masterpiece!
And you gotta love the laugh track!
