Count Floyd and his Scary Stories
Вставка

- From the animated Ed Grimly TV series. A take off from the SCTV Count Floyd (Joe Flaherty) skits. In this episode, Count Floyd decides to draw the kids a scary story instead of telling them a scary story! My favorite scene from all of the Ed Grimly animated shows!
Joe Flaherty was my favorite SCTV character, followed closely by everybody else. Geniuses, every one.
I know, isn't he gorgeous?
Many years later and this still cracks me up....
haha thats me in the red shirt in the audience
Count Floyd is a damn fine nod to the genius of Svengoolie, Elvira and the other great horror hosts.
I feel the act is closest to Count Scary of all the horror hosts.
OWWOOOOO! Boy was I scared! Too bad the Ed Grimley show got cancelled.
Joe Flaherty did pretty much the same voice as the vampire dad on Little Dracula.
That's right, yes.
"he was a skinny kid, because, uhg, he's didn't eat his breakfast!!" HAHAHA
Wow this is *classic* Hanna-Barbera animation! Their best work yet! ;)
I had forgotten how funny SCTV was
"Did I say it was a mask?! It wasn't! It was a real monster! And boy was he teed off at that kid for pulling off his head!"
Always makes me crack up. Especially Count Floyd's meltdown immediately afterward.
LOL!! I miss Count Floyd's "3D House of Stewardesses" Ooh, ooh, ooh, aah, aah, aah!
LOL!!
Can’t find the comment for response so ill just post it here
The reason he howls like a werewolf despite being a vampire: the origin of the character is that this Joe’s character of news anchor Floyd Robertson, in a vampire costume. The gag was that he was also taking this schlock hosting gig for the station so he’d get two paychecks.
And Floyd Robertson seems to be largely unaware of what a vampire even IS, other than they talk like Bela Lugosi.
Footnote: a newsman assuming a horror host role on the side to get extra money is how MANY iconic schlock hosts (Sammy Terry, Svengoolie) started.
i just now thought about it but him wearing a vampire outfit on the Halloween episode of Freaks and Geeks was a reference to this
i agree...they hooked me with the people throwing the tv sets out of the apartment building
Flaherty was the father in Maniac Mansion, and several great supporting roles including Eggy's militant Scout leader dad in Once Crazy Summer.
Why did the slumber parties I went to as a little girl never have Frankenstein as a guest? I feel cheated.
I sometimes use Count Floyd’s werewolf drawing as my avatar.
Where do you use it? Count Floyd did say that werewolves are too hard to draw.
Happy birthday Joe Flaherty!!!
I miss that show .... aaaaaaooooooooooooooooo!
Greatest story ever. Period.
Let's not forget that John Zacherle had a run as a kid's show host - presiding over "Mighty Hercules" cartoons on WPIX (Channel 11) in New York in 1963. Not to mention his hosting the music dance show "Disc-O-Teen" on WNJU (Channel 47) in Newark, NJ from the station's 1965 launch up to 1967. All done in his horror-host "Zacherley" persona. So this isn't all that off the mark in that context.
I found the council funny, when John candy came in and said would you like some pancakes I almost pissed my pants laughing. The first time I ever saw it I was out 13 babysitting and I watched it many times over and over. Comedy gold
:38 - kid yawns. hilarious!
Joe Flaherty i love you man.
Space Ghost: Zorak, I’m receiving a transmission from Count Floyd.
Zorak: Oh. Let’s hear what the old bat has to say.
Now I'm off on an SCTV tangent...this may take awhile to subside
Ya gotta admit----classic animation here!
Spooky! Gave me goosebumps on top of my goosebumps!
Thank sctv!
The "drawing" routine is kind of a parody of a routine Svengoolie has been doing for decades, LOL
Loved this cartoon and the Count Floyd segments--kinda like Fat Albert and the Brown Hornet. Who else here totally despised Legal Eagle?
kids just visiting the sanotarium to visit floyd because of his mind fog
The girl in the audience made a reference to Scooby-Doo.
why was his coffin against the wall and not on the ground? lol
Oh man I LOVED that show! I think the humor was a too grown up so NBC cancelled it- ;(
I'll be 75 soon, & this stuff is really scary.haha.
Count Floyd was on SCTV and The Completely Mental Misadventures of Ed Grimley
Don't you just love when they make in-jokes? (This was made by the same company as "Scooby-Doo". :D )
omg i seen him act in a bunch of stuff and i couldn't remember the name of this show! i use to watch this all the time it's been about 15 years since i seen this
Now...when will Count Floyd visit Sesame Street and meet Count Von Count?
The basic idea for this character,sketch and set had to be inspired by The Hilarious House of Frightenstein, especialy since most comedians in SCTV were Canadians. Hell Eugene Levy and Andrea Martin even did a movie with Fishka Rais aka Igor from HHOF.
FREAKS AND GEEKS
I used to miss SCTV so much that I would watch this show and Camp Candy just to remind myself of SCTV. Ed Grimly cartoon was actually ok to watch, lol.
hahahaha nooo this is the guy who plays lindsey's dad in freaks and geeks!!
lol yea I haven't seen this show in 15yrs and it just hit me, wtf is he howling for
Too great! Count Floyd FTW!
THE BEST CANADA HAS TO OFFER!!!
Anyone who was brought here because of freaks and geeks is to young for this show
someone knows the name of the episode of ed grimley where the count floyd shows a horror comic about a worm-man like monster?
The look on the kids faces, you'd think they'd rather get better entertainment watching the news. But its all acting,.........maybe.
anthony: Well, you have to admit, the news is much scarier.
R40
Was he any relation to Pink?
The guy who handed Marty the letter in Back to the Future.
Paul Ryan kinda has hair like Count Floyd lol
@AnnaFavela Pasaba en ZAZ no?
Um, Mr. Park Ranger? Where are your pants?
does anyone remember with the rotten eggs... or something?
Edna Boil with her home run hitting chicken chucky.
1:51 LOL epic fail werewolf
That's becuase he considers a werewolf to be too hard to draw.
manito arriba si lo quieres en español!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that camp ranger looked like a zombie ranger BooooHooooo
@AnnaFavela Well it does exist, its called Cartoon Network the deal is that great cartoons like ed grimly... down with Droopy D etc etc etc were taken off thats the sad part and to tell you the truth those caroons were awsome

You won't. Maybe you should pay someone to translate/overdub it for you. Why should it be in Spanish in the first place?
Mr mcfly I got something for u
@whysosirius style

That is the most unenthusiastic studio audience I have ever seen.
Your animation is pitiful Count Floyd. Hahahahaha.....
I think it's intentionally bad. LOL
