Details

Description

The Flip Wilson Show broadcast of January 3, 1974 on NBC-TV.

Season 04, Episode 13.

Guests: Ted Knight, The Pointer Sisters, Phillip Paley and Tim Kiley.
NOTE: Tim Kiley is also the director of this episode.

This 38-minute widely syndicated, abbreviated version of the show is all that is available on YouTube.

During the original broadcast, The Pointer Sisters performed two songs from their 1973 debut album, which were also their first two major single releases: "Yes We Can Can" and "Wang Dang Doodle."

Unfortunately, when this episode was edited into an abbreviated version for reruns in TV syndication, these two musical performances were not included, and there are no video clips available anywhere on YouTube. To compensate, substitute videos from the same time frame are provided, which would be substantially similar to The Pointer Sisters' performances of these songs on The Flip Wilson Show.

"Yes We Can Can" on the "Soul Train" TV broadcast of November 17, 1973 is available here:
