A lot of established stars where surprised at how well Redd Foxx's spontaneous acting style worked out on the show. Actor Jonathan Harris (Dr. Smith from Lost In Space) asked Redd if he wanted to rehearse with him. Redd told him he never rehearsed before the taping because he didn't want to lose his spontaneity. I think that's what made the show so funny. The show also had an excellent cast of characters. Bubba Bexley. Grady. Julio. Aunt Esther. (Believe it or not, the actress who played Aunt Esther was actually a pin up girl in the late 1920s.)
@@bernaberuiz5728 The first time people were charged money to sit in a room and watch a movie was in 1895 in Paris. Until October 1927 all films were silent. Having a lot of movies was very dangerous in those days because they had cellulose nitrate which is a highly flammable material that's difficult to put out once ignited.
Jackie Gleason also didn't rehearse. And I am so interested in reading some of the scripts of "the honeymooners" because Jackie followed maybe only 20% of the script. And read somewhere that some scripts are posted somewhere on the internet, but didn't find anything.
Redd Foxx was a comedian for 40 years before he was on TV. Including the Apollo on 125th Street. He knew about timing,stage presence , facial prop. He knew it all, didn't have to learn.
Funny I get denied every time for credit and work soon sale the people to there parents not me what love no ring on his finger duh. And no he don't pay for ned or child support 🎉no his not the business 🎉not his wife 🎉or trash 🎉
This comedy was on of the greatest ever made they don’t make comedy like this any more it’s was so funny redd fox the only thing that he left his legacy and name so we can enjoy it, may his soul rips💐❤️🌹🥀💕
Happy Birthday 🎂🥳🎉🎈🎁🎊 Fred G Sanford AKA Redd Foxx ❤. I hope 🙏🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾 you have a marvelous birthday in heaven. I know you probably going to make a lot of people laugh today in heaven 😂. Make some of my family laugh to, that's up there with you 😘😍🥰.
Demont Wilson (Lamont in S & S) debunked this in a 2016 interview. LaWanda Page (Aunt Esther) had a younger sister named Lynn Hamilton and this happened to coincide with Donna's real name.
@Chris Owens There are claims that Lynn Hamilton was the younger sister of LaWanda Page, however, there is no truth to this. They are not sisters, nor are they even related. Quit spreading gossip.
The 70's and 80's had the best shows ever and this was one of them! The golden years of television.
If you’re think Fred Sanford The Man Thumbs Up 👍
Rollo said "Yeah, teased it, squeezed it, freezed it and diseased it", 😄😆🤣, he got Fred good with that one...
Even Fred had no comeback to that. Fred almost always had the best comebacks for that, but that caught him by surprise.
Esther to Fred, 'You're Just a Messy Fool' , Fred to Esther, ' You're Just a Sessy Pool'😂😂🤣❤️!
What a great show they don't make em like this anymore 🏆
Happy Birthday The GOAT Redd Foxx aka Fred G SANFORD.

The Foxxe's voice changed, curious if his love for herb and tobacco had something to do with it ?
When shows were good before this stupid cancel culture ruined EVERYTHING!!!
I’m sure it won’t be long before they try to cancel this great show because it’s “racist”.
Grow up
