Some classic comedy for your Sunday morning!

Flip Wilson was unique. He paid his dues by learning to perform while serving in the Air Force, then honing his craft in California comedy clubs. He became a favorite guest on many '60s TV shows, and became the first African-American to host a successful TV comedy variety show in 1970 when "The Flip Wilson Show' debuted.

Here's a clip of Flip Wilson performing on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1970. Enjoy!
