[Charla1606]

[KingHollywood32]

F is for FALCOWN PAWNCH!!!!!!!!!!!! YES!

[yogafan6500]

If i was the ringmaster i would say something like this "Does anyone give a flying F?" Nostalgic and i love it ever since. XDDDDDDDD

[TimelordR]

Anybody give a flying F? Hilarious!

[SMSTERN2]

anybody want to buy a used F?

[AlbieGray]

@d72jjpilc fahahahahaha! I loved that! Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are feuding and refuse to perform!  And so ended the firing of the field cannon on Fort Founter. And again, the parting shot was fabulous, "Anybody wanna buy a used F?!"

[superlurf]

OH FOOEY

[onetwopussies]

Absolutely Fabulous

[jackwolf131]

I'm wearing flip flops while watching this film

[jackwolf131]

Fracturing your foot is not fun

[christytina81]

This is hilarious! :-D

[steventean]

i cant believe no 1's concerned about the flea who fractured his foot

[Smartboy8877]

@steventean

What would use expect people to write about that situation?

[rosario508]

Wow. Those fleas are such divas.

[bigg3469]

"OH-HO-HO! Oh Ho I fractured my foot!!"

LOL funny!!

[soseztheleadr]

That is just too funny! ^^

ROFLOL

[Smartboy8877]

@soseztheleadr

It sure is!

[Bertonator]

Fantastic! Fabulous! Funny! And far out!

[AlbieGray]

I love that finishing shot, "Anybody wanna buy a used f?!"

[BruDiggity]

I love all the flea drama and egos.

Everyone, stop giving that comment any thumbs down! I like that comment!!

[DianaDeLuna]

Freddie and Fannie have fizzled, and are being force-financed by the Feds.

[thelakersforlife]

Flea Circus- my fantasy football name for years

[1337vashfan]

"Freddie and Fannie are feuding..."

Must be a Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac reference for the grownups!

[d72jjpilc]

That's right! In this day and age, they also go hand-in-hand with another 'F' word - 'foreclosure.' Just trying to be funny about a fabulous remark!

[woodrailking]

Fort Fumter? Is that near Fort Sumter?

[jushin246]

F*****g Funny!!!lol

[tvercetti1970]

........I remember me and my friend were

watching this when we were 20 years old,

but I saw this skit and couldn't stop

laughing.Thanks for posting this clip.

[TinyDancer500]

You're more than welcome, no worries!

[jmaxfield]

Pssst! Have you ever watched a SS cartoon with extraneous background music enough times in your childhood to suddenly recognize it, years later, in a different, if not original, context?

Believe it or not, the music used in this cartoon can be heard in a classic 1972 adult film, DEEP THROAT.

[Rodadingdangdoom]

Ah, yes. I fondly remember that particular scene from that fine film. It was the one where Fanny Fellatio fixates that fellow's firmity firmly in her female fur patch. Yes, it's all coming back now.

[TinyDancer500]

LOL! Not quite the family-friendly vibe I'm going for here, but too funny to remove :-)

[DragonLord1975]

Filbert had to say "Fooey!" He couldn't say THAT WORD because of S&P.

[nirrad0791]

ha ha ha. i thought the SAME thing!

[whammer0411]

Fabulous, funny, freaky filmclip from foregone flights of fancy...yep...I did grow up on Sesame Street.

[barringtonbelinda]

And it taste "f"antastic too !

[lovemeg5186]

LOL! I couldnt stop laughing

[mariobros32096]

I remember seeing this one, thanks for posting this!

[yaadiebwoy]

I LOVED THIS

[coconutcritter]

I love their voices!!

[MistressRhea]

Aliteration, FOR THE WIN!!

[NecroticCadaver]

i always used to love that flute song! my sister and i used to mimic it all the time. LOL! thanks for uploading this classic video!

[hoofer1]

"I'M Filbert!!!" Funny, I could relate to the little flea being annoyed that the man couldn't keep the fleas' names straight. Yep, I also thought I'd grow up to see a real flea circus. Mom had to explain it to me.

[ISNorden]

Flea circuses used to be popular about 100 years ago, though they were nowhere near as elaborate as in this cartoon (and of course, the fleas couldn't talk or do so many humanlike stunts).

[LegionPossessed]

Poor Fats probably missed his five o'clock flight due to the fractured foot.

[ISNorden]

I just had to feature this film om my favorites list, and favor my fellow fan with five flattering stars... (Anybody got a letter G in here? ;-) )

[g6c]

I never realized how insanely clever this was. Guess I had to grow up first.

[See918]

Floyd has the flu and Fats has the farts.

[tmgreena]

hahaha! It must have been 10 years since I've seen this. I love it!

[hollyinpa]

"First a flute fan fare!"

[mplsjenn]

Awesome. I was totally convinced that one day I would see a flea circus like this for real.

[glsun02]

that guy's legs freak me out

[pekoe]

lol LOL.. I NOTICED THAT ALSO HAHAH WILD HUH!!

[kscarpetta]

HUGE GULLIBLE MEMORY here...I was sure fleas could really do this when I was about 4 and 5. Thanks for the great flashback! :-)

[janeykinspeen]

yaaay

[helenlovejoy]

"Ohhh! Ohhh! I fractured my foot!" Hahaha, I hadn't seen this in over 20 years and I could still remember every word of it. Thanks so much for posting all these videos. I know it makes all of us children of the 70s and 80s all warm inside :-)

[Blue2Green]

True true... haha... still a classic. Luv 'em fleas!

[faithm]

f is for faith! :)

[LiteracyLabyrinth]

a five o clock flight to Finland LOL

[pekoe]

CUTE AN ARE TH

ERE REALLY fLEA CIRCUSES?? WEIRD THE 70'S ROCK!!!!!!!!

[4a8p9x]

You don't see them much anymore, but yes, flea circuses existed at one point. Fleas can be trained. The simplest way is keeping them in jars so they learn to take smaller and hops. Elongated containers (like a hamster's habit-trail) will teach them to hop in patterns.

[MaureenJ0812]

I loved this video...so cute! "Filbert, you fool!" I haven't seen it in years! Thanks!
