McHale's Navy Full Episodes: Season 1x01 | An Ensign for McHale 

And the jokes are clean jokes.

Boys don't be sad about Ernest and Tim

That's how I first knew of him; as the doorman on the 90s sitcom The Single Guy

Indeed he did, Carter.

Amen, John.

Touché because he was funny without being dirty and disrespectful to women

Exactly my sediments, sir. One of the BEST, hands down. In EVERYTHING he did. Today's comedy stars are funny, maybe if you're 20, and a Facebook cowboy🤠🙄⁉️

Comedy doesn't have to be dirty to be funny.🤣🤣🤣

Unfortunately simple comedy like this doesn't exist anymore. Thanks to the cockheads of society.

+Mick Sydney That's for sure, they were the good old days of T.V., days that we enjoyed a comedy show, not like we have shit comedy rubbish today, all swearing so people can lough, good comedians are gone now. all of McHale crew are all dead only Mr. Tim Conway (Parker) is left and is 82 years old, i wish i can meet him and shake hands with him.

+Vic Avakian me to mate ,clint Eastwood to ,his good ,Kurt Russell ,,,

+Mick Sydney Love this show Mick, but did you know the ratings where not as high as they should have been back then? from what I hear. Couple of reasons, one of which, bad timing. Also, competition. some other reasons too. But I loved this show. The US Navy liked it because at the time, it promoted enlistments. Believe it or not, young men where signing on for the navy because they thought this was how the navy behaved, so they thought it would be kinda fun. Now, these where young kids keep in mind and they where just a little naive, & ignorant. You know how kids in their mid teens are. I think I heard all of this from one of the Ernest Borgnine interviews I saw. In my opinion, I don't think this show would have been as good with out Joe Flyn. I don't see anybody standing in his sted. Borgnine said it himself when they asked him to do another McHale's Navy move. He said "perhaps, but where are you gonna get another Joe Flyn?" and he's right, as good as an actor Borgnine is, he can't carry the whole comedy load himself. I mean really, Flyn was damn good at playing that part. The Best. Even to this day I don't see anybody playing the part of Capt. Binghamton. NOBODY. RIP Joe and Ernest. Yes sir Mick, they were the good days.

+buzz bang yes joe he was also good in the Disney movies ,with kurt Russell ,,now you see him now you dont ,,and all the outhers

+buzz bang ...great comment on joe..i would like to know what happened to joes wife and children..especially after joe drowned in suspicious circumstances...there should be a documentary on joe about what really happened to him..was it foul play..did the hollywood mafia do him in..as he was after class action on residual payments for all actors who appeared on tv..joe knew his lines and could improvise..there was nobody like him..he was the jack benny on a great tv series that stands up well, nearly 54 years later..and ernest borgnine was the straight man..

Same here my dad just loved this show. I was only about 8 or so.

6:52 The Minneapolis was my Dads ship. He was part of of her original crew 1934.

Nice memory, Toni. Thanks for sharing that.

Wow! No kidding, U2mister1!? What a neat thing that is!

I've seen Joe Flynn playing a submarine doctor on an episode of The silent service. Only his voice gave him away. ( No glasses.)

Good. Just in time. And stop yelling at me.

Luckypete 08 DONT FORGET HOGANS HEROES AND THE INFAMOUS COL KLINK

I agree with you

Oh god yes these were ckassic.

Combat was good as well.

Richard Rutledge yes, Sgt Bilko also. The comedy in those days was some of the best

Harvey Korman about hurt himself laughing when him and Tim Conway did that bit!

I just saw that episode, a couple of months ago. It WAS hilarious😂!! And loved that show, also👍!!

ALL our names were once latin.

Semper Fi Gunny

U forgot both Marty and from here to Eternity! He was great in both of these films!

It's sad how they couldn't watch any of the movies...the MASH film was apparently a real shocker with the hemoraging combat patients....it apparently sent a few to the bathrooms and street....sadly we are now so de-sensitized to it all.

I have a friend who served in Vietnam who still won’t watch any type of military program since he came home in ‘72. M*A*S*H being at the top of the list. #MuchLoveForTheVets. 💖💯

A Vietnam Veteran that I used to work on and off for over 30 years finally went to the VA and talked to a couple of other veterans and a counselor. He would never say more then a sentence or two about the war before that, and one day while I was at lunch on my shift and he had just finished his shift, came in and talked to me for over an hour about the war. He really opened up and became himself again. He got a partial disability too and a minor settlement that has really helped in his current retirement. God bless him and all the veterans, may you find peace!

That is so cool. I bet you were the men's favorite commander

LOAD OF BOLLOCKS!!!!

so you granted your men "high spirited times" including bootlegging, racketeering and all ? Do you know this could call for a court marshal, we got a lot of bingies around you know :D

Mr. Parker's first mission

One of the reasons Ernest Borgnine is the man!

This show inspired me to join the US Navy. I was on the USS America V4 division 76 to 80. Shout out to Lt. Smith if you`re out there and hats off to Captain Fuller!

The man was a fucking badass

brad hunt - Ernest Borgnine was granted an honorary promotion to Chief Gunner's Mate in 2004.

@@robertf3479 Well deserved

Garbage called reality shows.

Element of Kindness yes indeed. Those were fine days and still very fondly remembered.

@Element of Kindness Same story here!

Ernest Borgnine was in the Navy in WW2. He served in both Pacific and Atlantic.theaters.

The full-blooded Dem’s are in control in Hollywood now!

me too!

Your parents were both HEROES !

I love Hogan's Heroes!! Pity Bob Crane was murdered.

Thank your parents for their service!!! My grandfather lost a ling due to Japanese Mustard Gas in WWI. My dad served every branch except the Marines. My nephew served overseas too. He is contracted overseas now.

My dad was a marine and mom was a Rosie the Riveter in WWII.

I just seen his story about the Siamese elephants today, boy was it funny. I love how Vicki Lawrence ask if the a....hole was really done, how Tim and Dick Van Dyke both fall off the ends of the couch and started rolling around on the floor on laughter. A must look up on RU-vid it was great

@@toniwilson1579 A part two is when he and Carol Burnett are on a bench in the park. Shes a crazy street person he's a convalescing business man. She does this bit to him, the look on his face is too rich.

@@wcresponder .. will have to look that on up too. Thanks

@@toniwilson1579 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-f7KpqXLxFck.html Cheers.

Thnork!

+Stephanie Campbell --he had been fired from the joey bishop show for stealing too many lines......,,joey bishop ,,one of the dullest dead pan no-talent actors ever..wouldnt be surprised if he thru his mob connections killed off joe flynn..thru sinatras contacts;...... once in a while a show comes along..joe flynn was perfect,,showed off his range as an comedy actor....those of us still remember when he passed away in 74...

+Stephanie Campbell Well regardless of what anyone says I think this show is really very clever and funny, I enjoy watching it :-)

+Dan NZ -one can learn about tv script writing just by watching the show..mind you these days they have very flimsy scripts..with no talent characterizations..

+Simonoves simon I totally agree with you. I did however get to like that show, "Two Broke Girls" after watching it for a few times.

IMO, 'Leadbottom' Joe made the show.

Yep. RIP, Tim.

May 14, was my Pop's date also..😢😢

I agree the two best. My late father loved Hogans heroes

Daniel Gould

Did they have shows produced in Italy. I believe they did but not sure how to find them.

no lenses for no reflections of cameras and lights

@James Stalcup They're both hilarious, but nothing will top this, no matter HOW much funnier it is :)

Look up the works, if you can find them of Admiral Daniel V Gallery, such as Cap'n Fatso. His fiction relies heavily on McHale types and practical jokers. BTW, in WW II, he was commander of a hunter-killer group based on the escort carrier USS Guadalcanal. He actually planned, practiced for, and ultimately carried out the succesful capture of a German sub on the high seas, the first US Navy capture of an enemy warship by boarding since the War of 1812.. I actually met a guy who was on the third or fourth boat to board. Very much like his fiction, there was a twist. The sub had an Enigma coding machine. We had already broken the German naval code, and if they heard we had captured the sub intact, they would change their codes. They had to tow the sub back to the US through the Bahamas, where the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, considered Nazi sympthizers, were liiving. All of the sailors were sworn to secrecy, the Germans had to be held in a separate camp and, under an exception to the Geneva Convention, the Red Cross was not told of their survival After the war, Gallery got the sub sent to a museum in Chicag where it is still on exhibit.

Jim, you don't know how correct you are!!! Everything went into the toilet!!! And it is never ever coming back!! Sorry to say!

To me, _every_ day is Veterans Day.

So would I . 😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃

+Julie Hastings --he worked very closely along side joe flynn..woudve liked to have asked him(bob) about joe..i wanted to ask bob,what happened to joes wife and the children since he passed away in 1974 under dubious circumstances..and if bob knew anything about joes life...yes it is a great show..if one wants to learn about script writing for television..this is the show to watch.

+Julie Hastings Amen to that, I couldn't agree more. As I have said elsewhere, watching makes me laugh out loud because the shows are so well done and that's rare in this day and age. P.S. A good and wholesome laugh is good for the soul, or so I believe.

I met Bob Hastings at Universal in 1966. Any relation, Julie?

If you watch the whole series you'll see Tim Conway grow from an aspiring comic to comic genius. On another note I had served and my time in service was more McHale's Navy than M*A*S*H*. God bless all vets.

It's got a fair number of writers and a few actors from Bilko, actually.

The Fugitive was hiding out on McHale's island? Wow, he was a slick one alright

+bah humbug lol Whoops...

Thank you. Have fun !

Captain Stubing from the love boat also

Conway was actually on the Steve Allen Show before McHale's Navy.

I have no idea what branch of the service you were in, But in my careeer, in the Corps, we always managed to do both!! We have always excelled in Combat and numerous covert ops. And we always trained hard, prepared continuously in order to complete our missions. SuperSniperSal USMC Disabled Vet

Murphy's Law is whatever can go wrong will go wrong.

I found that few 'inspection ready' naval units actually had their acts together enough to be top performers when GQ sounded for real, but the units that could be depended upon when the shells and missiles were flying had been too busy preparing for combat to be flawless in inspection. I had the honor to served in one of the latter, USS Caron (DD 970.)

Thank you. Have a good time!

Which actor is John Wright?

Willy the radioman

Chris Duke American audience 😮🤭🙄😀🇨🇦

Kevin Chappell Some of us Yanks have been to N.Z. I even married one...

Chris Duke ...I reckon he was pointing at Stewart island, I remember the days when you could fire a shot down the Main Street of Invercargill and not hit anyone!!
