Like others have said, how is the show colorist when Martin never made a color joke? Plus, every dude other than Martin tried to smash Pam. It’s a gift and a curse that this show is still so popular than now some 20 year old is watching it and coming up with some lame think piece. And it’s always some black person doing this shyt. Leave our GOAT shows alone. Go critique Leave it to Beaver or some shyt.
I remember Martin making only one colorist joke on his show, but it was in one of the episodes he played Mama Payne. But instead, the joke wasn't on dark skin, it was on light skin. As you know, Mama Payne never liked Gina. In that episode, Mama Payne referred to Gina as yellow, or high yellow, or something to that nature, that was an insult to her skin tone. But I don't think anybody lost sleep over it.
But that scene left me with the impression that Martin probably made those kinda light-skin jokes in real life, and used Mama Payne to sound one off. Most cat's in the lighter skin category probably had a least on close friend who use to make light-skin jokes on him...I know I did. My friend being extra dark-skinned, I would retaliate back with dark-skin jokes on him. One day, I retaliated, and went a little far, and he asked me to stop. We haven't made skin tone jokes on one another ever since.
