I remember Shawn & Marlon were supposed to have an HBO special at one point in the late 90s, but it never made it to the air. It probably sucked dikk.

Damon had some gems as far as stand-ups go. He had a comedy special stand-up like 08 or 09, maybe 10 but I remember it was funny. His last joke was about if ever got divorced he'd just marry an ugly chick and treat her like :trash: because she should be happy to be with anyone. Damon Jr. is decent at stand-up to never seen any of the other wayans other than Keenan's monologues when he had the Keenan Ivory Wayans Show back in the late 90's

In early 2010, American television network NBC and two of its late-night talk show hosts, Conan O'Brien and Jay Leno, engaged in a media and public relations conflict over the host and airtime of The Tonight Show, the network's long-running late night program. On January 7, 2010, NBC announced that effective March 1, 2010, Leno's program The Jay Leno Show would be moved from the 10:00 pm weeknight time slot to 11:35 pm and O'Brien's program The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien would be moved from 11:35 pm to 12:05 am. The scheduling change was attributed to poor ratings of both shows and resultant pressure from NBC affiliates and NBC Universal chief Jeff Zucker. Though not a breach of either host's contract, the change resulted in a public outcry and public demonstrations largely in support of O'Brien.

Shortly after NBC made the schedule change proposal, O'Brien indicated that he would quit his show and leave the network if NBC were to implement it, citing the "destruction" of the venerable franchise which had aired at or around 11:30 pm for over 60 years.The controversy surrounding the scheduling move, described by media outlets as "embarrassing" for the network and a "public relations disaster", led to public support for O'Brien from fellow late-night talk-show hostsand other celebritiesalong with protests on social networking sites such as Twitter and Facebook.

O'Brien's departure was officially confirmed by NBC on January 21, 2010, after nearly two weeks of negotiations. His final show aired Friday, January 22, and he along with his staff received a total of $45 million to walk away from the network ($33 million for O'Brien, $12 million for the staff, with the exception of Andy Richter and Max Weinberg).

That cowboy nikka would have me dying. He was on Wayans Bros once too

Eddie Murphy said Damon had him shook.

.

Yeah, when Arsenio asked him about making a return to stand-up on his show.
Who remembers when Damon hosted the BET awards? I was surprised he flopped like he did. nikka did his opening monologue and was like "Ya'll are a great audience :shaq2:". Then came back the next segments drunk and had Shawn and Marlon backing him up :russ:
