I found his on an old VHS tape and it is loaded with stars and it is awesomely funny! Hosted by Uncle Ray, it features Chris Rock, Arsenio Hall, Robert Townsend, Barry Sobel, and Marsha Warfield. I think it was produced by Eddie Murphy and was shown on HBO. Look for a lot of cameos in the audience... I do not own the copyright for this show, but wanted to share the great laughs with others.... The video quality does get better with time....This is Part 1 of 2 so watch Part 2 later....after checking out my "channel" and "uploads", and maybe subscribing....I am working hard for my 12 Great Subscribers...

I remember this....good stuff.

The short waiter with the mustache (at the 23:20 mark)? That's Clint Smith, he played the other "old man" in the barbershop in "Coming to America".

Marsha Warfield was hilarious back in the day, before "Night Court".

And you KNOW Eddie Murphy produced it, cause them damn Busboys were the musical act. :russ:
