Goat sketch comedy show and nothing really comes close. It's in its own universe. Too many epic moments and dope characters.

Even the features were classics. When Al bundy showed up on the Dozens show, nikkas lost their minds at school.

Everything I watch pretty gets the "I wonder what In Living Color would have done with this?" treatment.

There will never be another show like it. They went all the way in on EVERYONE and everything.. And nobody did anything but laugh

I think the movie"Bambozzled" by Spike Lee, was really based on the chance the Wayan family took when they created and released "In Living Color". The funny thing is, I never heard anybody say this. Anyway, from what I remember, that movie was about these Black actors taking a chance on releasing a show that featured Black comedy stereotypes that included blackface etc..., and by surprise it became a hit. But the Black actors who created it expected it to flop, and they wounded up very disappointed that this buffoonery was such a hit with Black and White audiences. Damon Wayan and Tommy Davidson even starred in this movie. The movie reminded me very much of the atmosphere when "In Living Color" was first released, and how a lot of Blacks felt the show sold us out. But the half who supported the show would nearly curse you out, because they thought the show was so funny.

When they made Bambozzled, they used the time right before the "Amos and Andy" error, when blackface was prevalent. What I'm trying to say is, I don't think the Wayans expected "In Living Color" to be a smash with as many Black people as it was.

My mom let me stay up to watch in livin color and married with children. That was my shyt.

 

[Absolut da poet ®]

People planned their day around what time the show is going to be on TV

It was the funniest TV show I'd ever seen at that time .

Only thing that comes close was the Chappelle show days

 

[Bboystyle]

Aint no other show like it. Every character shined on there. Not a single bland or tiresome character on there.


Only thing that came close to it was Chappelle Show.


Shows how garbage entertainment has turn into. From music to TV



Aint nothing like the 90s. From saturday morning cartoons, to blassic sitcoms. Evenings with The Simpsons and as i got a little older, Beavis and Butthead. Ren and stimpy another goated cartoon that would be banned today.


Damn this world is miserable now a days..

 

[Majestyx]

the shyt so funny, these dudes are laughin at themselves in 95% of the skits. some of it was adlibs, so the other peson would be tryin to contain their laughter cuz they aint know the what funny shyt was bout to be said.

Yo I still can’t believe this shyt used to air on prime time tv

 

[You Win Perfect]

Old nikkas, how was this received?

Pretending not to be born just so you could say “old nikkas”

 

[RennisDeynolds]

We really need a Wayans documentary series. They changed the game. I would like them to put it out themselves

 

[You Win Perfect]

It was barely allowed on TV back then. It nearly divided the Black community. I was one of those who stopped watching halfway through the first season. I did the same with Martin.

Must be non FBA
