  • R.I.P, Joe Flaherty. Here is a full episode of TVO's Mathmakers guest starring Joe from 1978.
    Retrontario’s primary mission is the preservation, research and exhibition of rare videotape recordings (1970s to 1990s) recorded off of any and all Ontario (and surrounding area) TV channels; footage which would likely be lost if not sought out and preserved digitally. We also hope to create an ongoing oral history of this content through comments left below the videos. Please add to this evolving history, if you know more information pertaining to the clips, fondly remember them or have a modern thought all comments are welcome!

      SCTV does not get enough praise for what that special time met!

    A long time ago I was visiting Chicago for work. It was early in my career and it was my first business trip and out of the country for that matter. It was early 1972, before Joe really became famous. He was getting out of his struggling actor phase of his career at that time. I know because he was my cab driver from the airport to my hotel. He was a really good driver, to be honest. I was impressed with his ability to be proactive in traffic and drive without distraction AND he was able to keep up a conversation. I told him I enjoyed the ride and the few small roles he had played before being on SCTV. He was genuinely humble and appreciated my praise. As I got out of the cab, he had already sprung out and pulled my suitcase from the trunk. He handed me his business card and told me to call him directly if I needed a ride anywhere while I was in town. I read the card and under his name, written in italics, was "Flaherty will get you everywhere."
    You'll be missed, Joe.

    R.I.P. Joe Flaherty. You and the SCTV gang was my childhood and the comedy sketch you share and made many laugh will be missed...

    Been watching SCTV for months and over the years.
    Goodbye Joe.
    Please...let there be SCTV in the next life.
    Still incredible work and stands the test of time!
    Brilliant. Raw. Uncensored. Fun. Silly. Serious. Professional. Great characters. Great voices. Great script....
    And so much more.

    Honestly, this looks more like an SCTV sketch than a kids program. Brilliant quirky humor. He was great in any character.

    Sad news! RIP Joe! So many characters so many laughs. In our minds he never grew old because we all aged with him and our memories. To us it was yesterday.😢😢

    Thanks. Joe was one of my favorite comedians, a master of sketch work. He grounded absurdity and brought warmth to darkness, and he always made me laugh. This is a nice showcase for him that I'd never seen before.

    I thought I was watching the least funny SCTV sketch ever until I realized this is from an actual educational show. What a trip.

    Mathmakers was a real television show that aired on daytime educational television on PBS in the early 1980s, but this doesn’t quite look like it, especially because Joe Flaherty is in it. RIP Joe.

    First, I learned Joe Flaherty passed asay on April Fool's Day.
    Then, I learned Canada did Square One TV almost a DECADE before the States did and called it MathMakers.
    whoa.

    I don't think any other man can personify beauty the way he can. The only other is Roger Daltrey.
    I've loved Joe my whole life and enjoyed a brief Facebook friendship with him. But alas my dream of holding him close is now just that...a dream.

    I just now found out. Yes, I typed those names from memory, that's just a small example of how extremely talented he was & he became one of my most favorite -- regardless of venue.
