COMEDIANS / LOOK A LIKES

 The Uncle Floyd Show aired in New Jersey and New York from 1974  to 1998. It can be read as a children's show or a parody of a children's  show. Much of the humor has a twist aimed at adults, in the style of  shows by predecessor Soupy Sales (1950s-1970s), and later Pee Wee Herman (1980s). The show featured character comedy, puppetry, some audience  participation, musical guests, and Floyd's piano playing. One of Floyd's  puppet sidekicks – actually a ventriloquial figure – was named Oogie. His on-air interaction with off-camera staff and sidekicks is somewhat in the style of what Howard Stern and Chelsea Handler would later do. Local bands such as The Smithereens, The Shades, and R. Stevie Moore, along with such well-known performers as The Ramones, Tiny Tim, Benny Bell, Bon Jovi, Jan and Dean, Peter Tork, Squeeze, David Johansen, Blue Öyster Cult, Joe Jackson, and Cyndi Lauper also appeared on Floyd's program.

Mike Morse is a man of infinite jest. Most comedians would be content to perform a first-class stand-up routine. But laugh-maker Morse doesn't stop there. He interjects song parodies, wacky props and a Mick Jagger imitation that could leave the Queen of England amused.
