THOMAS F. WILSON on "COMICS ONLY with PAUL PROVENZA" (Ep 55 – 1990)

Tom Wilson is perhaps most recognized as ‘Biff’ from the “Back To The Future” movies – but he started out in show business as a standup comedian, and continues to do standup to this day in addition to his acting career. Provenza met Tom way back in the early ’80’s when he was starting out at the legendary ‘Comedy Works’ in Philaldelphia, where he often performed with late Judy Toll – who was the other guest on this particular episode. The taping was actually a kind of ‘comedy high school’ reunion day.
Tom had great stories about shooting the Back To The Future movies, Crispin Glover’s contract negotiations, and traveling around the world trying not to be the ugly American, while being called “Meester Beeeff!” in Hong Kong.

    Today poor Tom would have post Marxist loons hating him calling him a evil white racist. But this was long before the sjw, antiwhite kosher freak show .

    This guy should be in the limelight and deservedly because he has so much to offer the younger generation, I genuinely think he could have player the Walter Kawolski character in Grand TARINO if Clint had not played it.

    Wow! He is Biff in real life! Nice hair

  32. Pamela Soto on February 3, 2023 at 4:45 am

    What a Hollywood gem

  33. Hector Lopez on February 3, 2023 at 4:46 am

    He worked with Eric stolz in bttf.

  34. peter papadimitriou on February 3, 2023 at 4:47 am

    Tom was great as biff and especially in the sequels where he had to go in and out of make up probably a million times to which characters

  35. La Delicia De Linda on February 3, 2023 at 4:47 am

    Wow he makes great impersonations. Super talented. My dad is from Hong Kong and I thought this was pretty funny though I imagine some people might find it offensive. The eyeballs on the fish though is the most nutritious part, parents give them to their children. So they must have really liked him

  36. Ray Izard on February 3, 2023 at 4:48 am

    I had such a huge crush on him back in the late 80s and 90s

  37. M. T. on February 3, 2023 at 4:50 am

    That was a pretty racist impression of Asian people.

  38. Anarchy on February 3, 2023 at 4:50 am

    He has the same energy as fucking Jim Carey 😂

  39. Dr. Wolfgang, Ph.D. on February 3, 2023 at 4:50 am

    This guy is so underrated! Holywood is such a leftist crap place, that they are missing him

  40. bnascargify on February 3, 2023 at 4:51 am

    Such a sweetheart

  41. mpd mpd on February 3, 2023 at 4:53 am

    he just in the wrong time.

  42. Jon Jones on February 3, 2023 at 4:58 am

    Dear lord he is so fucking genuinely hilarious.

  43. King Serious Wrestling Archive on February 3, 2023 at 4:59 am

    Thanks for everything! Here’s a little something for fun: https://youtu.be/Y7ggw365lYI

  44. Kevin Eagle on February 3, 2023 at 5:00 am

    Tom Wilson reminds me of a cross between Gary Busey and Jim Carey.

  45. Mikel Hawk on February 3, 2023 at 5:01 am

    Tom’s a little grayer now but he’s still around and just as animated and funny as he ever was. I don’t know why Hollywood never made him a leading man in the biz because Tom demonstrated early-on he can do it all.

  46. wewoka kid on February 3, 2023 at 5:02 am

    No doubt about.it…stand up comics make the most memorable &. entertaining talk show guests… Thomas Wilson never fails to entertain…!!!

  47. Rahim Mitha on February 3, 2023 at 5:03 am
