RIP Joe Flaherty aka Count Floyd

[OneZeroZero]

His intro to the live version of "The Weapon" was a classic.

RIP , Joe!  You and the "Blood Sucking Monkeys from West Mifflin" will be missed! He was a Pittsburgher!   (Count Floyd was supposedly based on a 1971 low rent UHF Pittsburgh movie host on Channel 53.)

I love SCTV.  More than SNL. Damn. Miss ya, Joe.

Guy Cabellero and Count Floyd were my faves and his excellent Floyd Robertson

At some point they revealed that Count Floyd was a character that Floyd Robertson was playing on the network.  He came onto the news broadcast drunk with the widow's peak still drawn on his forehead.  I thought that was so brilliant.
