Fantasy Island TV Show Opening Theme Season One 1978

[councilglasses]

Every TV show should have a midget in it ,the world would be a better place

[mindfield7]

It's very cold in space..... KHAN!!!

[msmithstud]

tattoo got fired by the producers because he asked for a pay raise. They said he was just a ''sidekick''. In all honesty, he was sort of the highlight of the show

[louie000007]

Eric the Midget "The plane, the plane"

[omegaredda]

red

[JSTONE9352]

I want my Cordoba with fine Corinthian leather. LOL

[JSTONE9352]

Whos coming to Fantasy Island today boss? :)

[Quebin]

Van Halen just released a song about this guy.

[proximityeffect1]

why am i watching this, i was looking for 'the plane boss the plane' from deep blue sea

[cyndassprites]

NICK NACK ESCAPED!?

[christian31Eagles]

RIP Herve Villechaize

[legunncat]

@christian31Eagles He died 20 years ago buddy.

[tubefluid]

KHAAAAAAAAAAANNN!!!

Ooops, wrong show.

[lientje1001]

ze plaaannneee xd

[rodeocyclone]

Now wait a minute. If da plane arrives every time on the second, why the hell is that hobbit always screaming at everyone when it arrives? They don't have clocks there?

[LoneWolForever]

DA PLAAANE!!! DA PLAANE!

[Seancalloway89]

Tha plane!

[baronvg]

$50,000 in today's (2010) money is about $165,000

[Rachael5922]

This show was crazy! lol 

[SchalkerSchickse]

i love it 

[ProjectDystopia]

Who knew Khan was hiding on Fantasy Island?

[ShadowKakume12]

R. I.P. Ricardo Montalban!

[yeismeload]

The 70s and 80s had such a hard on for hawaii or miami in tv shows lol

[btown4333]

the wrath of taatoooooooo..........

[JetFireMarch]

Oh the feel of Corinthian leather....

[Miguel1014x]

Ricardo Rodriguez!!!

[SphinxBinStudios]

It's funny because you people are making fun of him and he shot him self because he felt that he didnt belong on earth.

[w2504x4]

one time a small plane flew by and I looked up and yelled the plane the plane, my kids looked at me like I was crazy.

[pkingsleyisback]

Is that Disney and a Cuban child?

[thedeityofthemind93]

If there is anyone who saw this that is a WWE fan, then you will know what I mean when I say that is Alberto del Rio and Ricardo Rodriguez...

[gserlenga]

"Da plane" is a Grumman Goose cool, I never realized that.

[mcslowlife]

the little squirt killed himself..ha! fucking twerp

[Richardhedditch261]

And fucking Tattoo wasn't always sayiong "the plane, the plane". Like, when he slips and hurts his hgand, he's actually saying "the pain, the pain" ! And, of course, this is where fucking Ricardo Montalban enters into a misunderstanding with Tattoo.

[lucky44124]

Is there anything better then 1978? Damn the tv was great and the start of what was really great in the 80's... the late 70's just were amazing

[CerebrumTranceStep]

I searched "the plane boss the plane" hoping that Samuel L. Jackson's line from Deep Blue Sea would come up. Damn.

[tedcantu1]

Herve used to beat up his wife when she fell asleep on the couch. Thats the only way he could punch her in the face. She was a Playmate too and took him for all of his money. Sad. But that rocks !!

[ejdf870]

I don't trust this little degenerate.

[gaotu]

de plane de plane lol I used to love that dude

[lcowles]

Where was Fantasy Island supposed to geographically located?

[gaotu]

@lcowles hum thats a good question. Goggle to the rescue lol.

[sequence130]

My dear tattoo when a guest pays $50,000 to hunt a midget for sport, that is exactly what he gets. Tattoo! Where have you gone?

[ZerlinHits]

Nice work. Click on my channel to see my 80's nostalgic collections; "80's TV Show Openings", "80's Saturday Morning Cartoons", "80's WWF Wrestling" and a "John Hughes Tribute".

[wallofvideo]

i remember maybe in the early 80s when jim lange was hosting "name that tune," the house band played the "fantasy island" theme song for one of the contestants but he couldn't remember the title.

[Leon612]

Looks like a small version of Chumly from Pawn Stars

[sniggitysnake]

For the hip hop heads that are sleep on this '70's tv show. Notorious B.I.G. makes reference to Mr Rouke & Tattoo in his original version of "One More Chance" on his 1994 Ready To Die album. Here's the lyrics Biggie spits: "Fuck what ya heard who's the best in NY, Fulfillin fantasies without that nigga Mr. Rouke, Or Tatoo I got you wrapped around my dick. And when I nut I gotta split, shit!

[07729913]

wow just fantasy is it or reality

[kojakbangbang7]

the location, location is L.A. COUNTY ARBORETUM- IN Arcadia California-across from SANTA ANITA RACE TRACK, STILL THERE

[texasghost]

Wow...that was something I did not know. I don't remember ever seeing an episode of Fantasy Island where Ricardo Montalban ever revealed how much people paid to stay on Fantasy Island.

Sounds like one of those trivial persuit questions someone would ask.

[curtisjones400]

It is very sad that in real life TATTOO commited sucide

[MultiKimmyKimKim]

@curtisjones400 Even sadder, and odder, that he was a wife beater. He seemed like he would have been a nice guy, but you can never tell from tv.

[Psychology]

@curtisjones400 Are you serious?

[curtisjones400]

@Psychology Yes-Tattoo's real name was Herve Villechaize he had a medical condition where is internal organs were to large for his body and he was always in pain-He would have bouts of depression as his condition got worst-Unable to take it anymore he pulled out his gun and killed himself

[Psychology]

@curtisjones400 wow that sucks big time

[viera1963]

@Psychology Yeah-it's true. Many people thought he killed himself over depression about his size but that wasn't it. He did it because of the constant, unbearable pain he was in. If they had strong stuff like oxycontin back then, I'm sure he would have been fine. Very sad.

[tubefluid]

By the time that little runt climbs up in the tower to ring his little bell, everyone already knows that the frikken plane is there.

[mysticaltraveler1111]

Smiles everyone!....SMILES!!

[ClassicTVful]

I can't help but say "the plane the plane" every once in a while when I see an airplane soaring in the sky.

[gamerfreak48]

i come here becase of george lopez

[ilovesexilovenaked]

was Ricardo Montalban in this meant to be God himself?

[idgarad]

@ilovesexilovenaked It is never really explained. We do know he is on the "good" side such that he has gone toe-to-toe with the devil himself but he doesn't seem to be an angel either. He's more like an agnostic 'force' that helps people resolve their issues.

[ilovesexilovenaked]

@idgarad and what about the god remarke at one point "work of god?? Indeed !" i hate to think of it as a sneer !

[cosmotcat]

It's awesome to see these old opening themes, but what the hell dude, that loud BLOOP sound at the beginning makes me want to punch a baby.

[CheetoSantana]

anytime I see a plane fly over I say Da plane Da plane!!!

[Nighthawke70]

And Bill Bixby was on that ep too. I hope he got what he wanted, they sure didn't want him to go hulk on them...

[tribeofgaul]

my fantasy would be to live a BOGART free life with REAL FRIENDS.

[rhyanwood1]

50k a day. Roarke don't like poor people. Must have been a Repub Tea bagger.

[vaportrails44]

@rhyanwood1 Typical liberal...you don't listen. He said 50k for 3 days...clean the shit out of your ears.

[GekkoKamen]

So, after all these years I realise the plane was a Grumman Goose. Am I right, fellow pilots? Or was it a Catalina?

[streetcarjay]

KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAN!!!



[CATHERINEDAVIES123]

I loved this programme.......

[CATHERINEDAVIES123]

the plen the plen lol

[Lisajo1960]

Smiles everyone....SMILES!!!

[Kharys100]

@strident212 oh..really? i did'nt know he had made a beer comercial for radio...i thing this is a proof of his versality as an artist..and yes he has a very cosmopolitan style ;)

[Kharys100]

how to forget Ricardo Montalban??..a proud for the latin comunity!!!

[MrWackypackages]

Hey asian chucky!

[luis3826]

george lopez sent me here lol

[NickChaseMe]

@shadster73 That doesn't really make sense. You shouldn't comment anymore on anything. Whether vocally or in text form. Also fuck you very much.

[shadster73]

Tattoo really personifies a tattoo - a little prick that never goes away!

[SunnyValeTP1]

Mr. Roarke was a madman!

[TheBaconEggAndCheese]

Does anyone know where I can watch 'Fantasy Island' episodes online?

[petertownend]

@TheBaconEggAndCheese grow up you silly bastard,tattoo was shagging your mother i bet

[Ewhelden]

@TheBaconEggAndCheese Try searching for it on Cracledotcom

[Ewhelden]

@TheBaconEggAndCheese Sorry about the reply I posted...Seems Crackle only has Minisodes of Fantasy Island

[kxmode]

S.S. Botany Island

[VulcanMassageIsBad]

@kxmode KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN! :)

[pdchr]

After that show was cancelled - the midget was caught raping a turtle.

[PlanTonto]

I had fantasies if sniffing tattoos anus when I was younger

[monkeynuts76]

$50,000 FOR THREE DAYS?

THERE BETTER BE A LOT OF BOOZE AND BITCHES ON THAT ISLAND!

[foolsbetrippin]

my dear tattoo, you will earn a real human name when you are thiiisss tall.

[bbeards4]

smiles everyone ... smiles...

smiles is code for... Im really Khan and im gunna F you up like captain kirk

[bbeards4]

i think they prefer more height

[Bieberluver8763]

Hehe!!! The plane the plane!!!!!

[MrManny7426]

why did that lil dude shoot himself?

[ghostrepublic]

@MrManny7426 As I understand it, long time medical problems that had him in pain for many years. He could no longer stand it.

[TheRocketSilo]

love boat and fantasy island were back to back ... classic times

[smallz2k]

great channel..great memories thankyou.

[mkworkman]

1:36 video: Fantasy Island TV Show, Opening Theme; with Francesca Hamilton in TV movie played by guest star Sandra Dee (April 23, 1942 – February 20, 2005); Tattoo played by Hervé Villechaize (April 23, 1942 – September 4, 1993).

[LeonJMusic]

little boy looks a bit like Roel Van Velzen,

a great ( little ) dutch singer

[hcvang]

Is the midget a mix between french and hispanic or something? lol "Mee-rrr-acle"

[frigginfreddy]

@hcvang French and Filipino.

[MrPoopoobreath]

@hcvang LOL at the ''MIDGET'' reference,i think they prefer "little person"

[hcvang]

50 grand for 3 days on Fantasy Island? Jesus... that's 6 months of work for me...

[jackburtonfan]

@hcvang 6 months! ONLY 6 months he said!!! Jesus dude, I want to do what YOU do. I worked my ass off for 2 years straight and I only managed to pull in just over 40,000. It's people like you that make me realize that im worthless and pathetic...thanks mom and dad for not instilling the work ethic and responsibility that most kids get.

[ilovetruffles99]

@jackburtonfan um, sarcasm right? 

[jackburtonfan]

@ilovetruffles99 absolutely not! im lazy and I dont ever get off my ass...I hate working and I mooch off my GF...

[ilovetruffles99]

@jackburtonfan oh. well you might want to get that checked out...I doubt publicly humiliating yourself is a good thing...

[SROMrPink]

I had nightmares because of tattoo...

[missamberrlynn]

they always do and THE PLANE hahahaha second-how do the people on the plane not see the house I mean how HOW???? =? third-Tatto lol cool name lol can't stop laughing =D

[Ange1Lina]

I used to love watching this show, even though I was too young to really understand it all :)

[HoboHunter28]

God DAMN, when I was little, Tattoo scared the SHIT out of me.

[Krahpula]

show openings used to be like a mini movie

[LaurenMinutes]

soo weird to see the arboetum being used as an island getaway....i live right near there and go often so its soo uncoanny to see basically my "backyard" in this film :P

[SCE2AUX]

Wouldn't the passengers hurt themselves if they deplaned when he orders them to??

[massagesteve]

Q. What kind of M&M's does Tatoo like?

A. The Plain! The Plain!

[dragonmanahan]

@massagesteve LOL



[ieatbroccoliforlunch]

Mini-me!

[BootyClapn]

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!



[TheAggiefan21]

just keep pressing 4 and all of your troubles will be washed away.

[Nueroactive]

Joseph Mengele's island of mind trips. So2011 they ought to have a tv series of Dr. Moreau's island to keep up with the advancements of human animals spirit splicing. Book 1960's "Communications with Dolphins". Old news, it would probably be not permitted on regular tv as the perversions that spiritual warpers apply are abominable!

[frasershellie]

da plain da plane!

[onroute93]

oh my god they all dead :(

[windstorm1000]

A trashy show with terrible writing, acting. Only Ricardo Montalban sort of saved it occasionally with his grace and dignity. The 70's at its decadent worst. I did like the palm trees though and pictured myself out of the gray WI snow drifts in the blue Bahamas....so THAT part was good.

[Truimphful]

What you don't remember is that double pronunciation of his was his natural way. It became a theme. Even when he died, he whispered: it hurts it hurts. Just show him respect a little. He was bullied to the extent of shooting himself.

[grettagrids]

@Truimphful tatoo was my favorite character. I can identify with him.

[Truimphful]

@grettagrids Great! Btw you have spelt business wrongly (typo) on your profile. My ex has a supply company too and lives in USA. You sound very much like her and a good person. Just a coincidence that it hurts me reading your profile. memories ,(cryy). Animals are the keystone to my life.

[grettagrids]

@Truimphful I identify with tatoo becuase neither of us are perfect medically speaking and both thought of as freaks:( I have alot of anger people just don't get and they bully me to no end even on youtube:( I too have tried to end it a few times. animals love us no matter what:). I do have a BF that loves me even though I will soon be only half a woman(hysterectomy soon). people can be sooo cruel.

[jsilence418]

MRMAXGUY1 and his greatest role as Tattoo check his site and look if you don't believe me!

[NinjaGhostScorpion]

I heard that when Herve Villechaize stubbed his foot, he hopped around, shouting, "De pain! De pain!"

[Portis1Luv]

Goddam Nordics!

[HUSKY57887]

Anyone recall what island was used for this show? $50k=3 days;would'nt spend that for only 3 days,even if i could.

[SCE2AUX]

@HUSKY57887 Especially since today it would be almost $200K.

[movieman3601]

if i remember herve villechaize shot himself

[pedrosbikeiscool]

@movieman3601 You are correct. Early 90's....92 or 93 if im not mistaken.

[Eddie62070]

@pedrosbikeiscool 9/4/93

[jazzyfayy1983]

everytime i watch the old shows of the 70s i think about all the actors and actresses thats no longer with us.

[facebookgiggity67]

george lopez did that he made me spit out my punch LOL

[lawgorhythm]

smiles everyone, smiles

[stevefromPA2]

C-o-r-i-n--t-h-i-a-n Leather.......

[Ozzyrox98]

HAHAHAH 'DE PLANE, DE PLANE'

[seenitdoneit]

[Ayden1224]

[TOC2525]

@Ayden1224 hey i think that is nick nack

[bigbo2700]

@TOC2525 yes thats nick nack..herbe villavchaxczxc

[Boabiegringo]

It's right on time!!

[bs13690]

I get the sudden urge to go out and buy a Chrysler Cordoba.

[DavidM212]

Why is Captain Kirk so pissed off at Mr. Roarke?

[paulpaid]

hard to believe both stars have passed away. where does the time go? R.I.P.

[mrhand18]

tatoo lol boss boss da plane da plane.

[streetcarjay]

KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAN

KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAN

[predlycon]

knick-knack and khan togerther at last.

[voon100]

Holy shit $50,000 for a 3 day stay?? Just hope there are plenty of fine hookers to suck you dry, otherwise it would be a waste.

[gre68]

@voon100 wow, yes...and we are talking a dollar in the late 70s. that $700 an hour. Also for the ones you normaly sleep away. think they have a "checkout" time so it probabely isn't even 3 full days

[BeyondNeptune]

that fucking midget killed himself because he hated being forced to say DA PLANE, DA PLANE!!! every week.

[BeyondNeptune]

i hated that fucking midget.

[pinkandjefflynne]

I want to fuck the dwarf

[cheapcape]

OK, I love this show, but hows about a Fantasy Island joke? What does Tattoo say when Mr. Roarke screws him in the hiney? "The pain, the PAIN!!" OK, that was bad.

[eric777100763]

I love that!! DE PLANE DE PLANE!!!!!

[shiyito]

el avion, el avion!!!! jajaja

[vanhalen515084]

the opening of this show, just brings back memories, my sister and i used to watch this every saturday night, cool show, sure wish they release more of this on dvd, i have the first season, but impatiently waiting for more,

[ObaNarayanShivaji999]

Thank you, for this clip has granted new meaning to my life.

[amcstudio30]

[Idude893]

ZE PLANE, ZE PLANE.

[BarneyBenar]

@Idude893 He doesn't say 'ZE' retard.

[Idude893]

Yes he does, that's how he pronounced it.

[gmacorvick]

Weeeeeirrrrrdddddd show...ewwww

[rickhuck64]

The plane, the plane.

[slader45]

Lol look at daw little man's belly

[3004z]

Does anyone know what island they are showing here? Fiji? In the second season they show scenes from Kauai but this isn't Kauai. There are no reefs like this.

[Thomistica]

This was a fuckin bizarre-ass show.

[SimBe0web]

A Yo! Lol...

[MondoBeno]

Herve had the most insipid role I've ever seen. Every single line he utters is childish and idiotic. It's the kind of role that serious actors should avoid, no matter how much it pays.

[winner502]

50 grand thats nothing you get a drink and a boat trip thats inflation 135 fantasy usa goverment gdp growth today we have bush a war mongrer and obama a facist it will be ruff tatoo these two men and congress destroyed america thier fantasy is not to be traitors like benedict arnold but to be heros its impossible im giving thier worthless dollars back and sending them out of here before they destroy my island with hedge funds bill bixby can stay america is ruled by elite facism

[auntbecky]

@winner502 obama can't be a facist if he's a socialist.

[winner502]

@auntbecky
