This generation will never realize how funny urban comedies were with their raw energy. Most of the "urban comedies" now are written &/or directed by people who never spent a weekend in the hood.
@notimportant can't say I grew up in the "hood", but I was told to carry a knife and always be ready to duck behind something for cover if you heard a sharp "popping" sound.
@@kjohnson9306 .....violence is not the only thing that goes on in the hood. Whoever told you that shit is most likely not from the hood themselves, they just listen to rappers talk about being in the hood. Most rappers didn't live that life themselves. They are telling stories of individuals who experienced it or just being creative with their stories. Everyone claims they came from the gutter, when truthfully most of them mfers came from households with a hardworking parent or 2 with a family who's only crime was not having endless finances to do all they wanted for their family but was able to keep their roof over their head and the lights on. Yea, there are dark parts of the neighborhoods, but most people are just individuals trying to make it day by day. For every ignorant ass mfer trying to gang bang, there's 100 civilians that are tired of the violence and ignorance. Moral of the story, don't be so dumb to think everyone in the hood are criminals or looking to do someone harm.... Only ignorant as mfers push that notion and they make you seem just as ignorant repeating it.
I was lucky enough to watch the episodes when they originally aired. Laughed so hard at each one that it hurt. I still say ILC is the funniest show ever made, and it was stuff like this that made it golden. And no one got offended because they were equal-opportunity offensive. They savaged everyone: it didn't matter who you were because sooner or later they'd tear you apart too. It was a combination of good writing, a fantastic cast, and a willingness to go for the jugular. I miss it. Yeah, TV shows have way more swear words and dirty jokes now than they did back then, but that's not the same thing. They no longer have that edge.
Me too. I could't wait for Sunday Evening 7 pm , and that's all we talked about Monday at work . Just wish it had been longer than 30 minutes . The comedy was unmatched and the Fly Girls wereso sexy.and included Jennifer Lopez in the 3rd season .
Nick Bakay, voice of Salem on the 90s Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Norbert on The Angry Beavers, writer for ILC and much much more as well as producer on many shows. He is one of those guys where you don't realize how often you have seen or heard his work until you really look into it.
Remembered every part of this excellent skit. Jamie Foxx’s mannerisms were hilarious. A ton of interaction from the audience and those great “Yo Mama” jokes.
I swear I was laughing my head off watching this. Jamie Foxx versus Ed O'Neil for the Dirty Dozen Grandmaster title. When Ed said, "Who is this loser"? Oh, hell no! It was on!! They could had used other ways to insult each other instead of dishing their mothers!! Lol. It was still funny as hell. 😄
Jamie Foxx said this effected him because he didn't think Ed O'Neill was that damn good at the dozens he also said that this was the best skit he ever did they had to do 3x because they were laughing at each other 😂😂😂
This is the Single Best skit of the entire show IMO. With In Living Color and Married with Children both on Fox, it was awesome to see a cross promotion for 2 of the 3 good shows ( X-Files) on the Channel. The F'n 90's rocked!
I justice noticed something. Background on the non-PC days black and whites America were more accepting of each other and mixed well in pop-culture. After P.C., victim , and villin culture kicked it, we list the ability today mix it up again after Chappelle went off the air.
