"Did you eat the government cheese father?" I've been saying that since I was a kid and I see now I was repeating this guy's stuff! My family must have seen it and talked about it. Good stuff.

Dave Chappelle must have been a fan of Robert Townend.

@Tropicaya Год назад

You noticed that too. Nothing new under the sun, I tell ya.

@GuitarGangsta 6 лет назад

Wow total blast from the past I grew up watching Robert Townsend as a kid in the 80s completely forgot about him. Every bit as great as all the greats. Otherwise he would never have been at Dangerfield's

@trevingaffney9187 6 лет назад

“Did you eat the government cheese, father?” Damn, that was a powerful joke! I just love this man.

@jonwmeyer11 11 месяцев назад

Always have loved this stand up. And 4:19 I feel like we have entered those times of commercials

@gspendlove Год назад

I remember seeing this special waaaaay back in '86 when it was first on HBO, and I 100% bought that a black comedian from Chicago might have that accent.

@doubler713 5 лет назад

@4:56. Tell us about when you were a nigga father! Lmao. Hilarious

@wildbill9919 4 года назад

The first time I saw him perform was that The Comedy Store in Hollywood wonderful stage presence performance was magical

@TheSlenderBassist 3 года назад

by far one of the best writers, directors, producers, comedians, and actors I grew up to, his appearance in Black Lightning was actually pretty dope especially when he directed the episode💯

@AndriaaLeoLove Год назад

Indeed. His First Movie, “Hollywood Shuffle” Is Wonderful. And He Does Not Degrade Black Women Or Call Us Names 💜.

@janicemorrow1794 2 года назад

Saw this when it was on originally. Hysterical 🤣😂

@lisaschooler9992 Год назад

Me too!!!! I had that VHS for years and then it somehow disappeared. Sure wish I had it back! Although I don’t have a VHS player anymore though

@antionemartin5698 Год назад

Robert Townsend sounds like Slick Rick doing stage comedy 😆

@Techknowverse Год назад

I remember when this was on HBO and watched it. Also I taped it. It had Rosanne Bar on it, too. The stuff between acts, with Rodney and Rosanne were pretty funny.

@jerseytomato100 8 месяцев назад

They sure were and I wish someone would post them on RU-vid!

@evansmith4330 6 лет назад

Never before seen by me. Great.

@jerseytomato100 8 месяцев назад

Boy he was spot-on about the woke “inclusive” TV commercials of the future, with a black husband Chinese wife and 2 adopted white kids.

@andrewhawkins8349 3 года назад

One day you'll see a commercial with a black man married to a Chinese woman and they have two adopted white kids. 2021: That's what you see.....minus the white kids.

@sandragailgoudelock1531 6 лет назад

@robbyjones7631 6 лет назад

The other day I went to a gas station. The sign on the front door said 'Yes, we're open!' I went in and turned around to close the door. The sign said 'Sorry we're closed'. I tell you one thing, that store sure don't stay open very long!

@bohemianwriter1 Год назад

Got a friend of mine who looks like him and sounds like his opening. He's half English, half Kenyan. Grew up attending some elitist school in England.

@ShakaCthulu 2 года назад

He was on fire then & put together one of funniest movies ever, Hollywood Shuffle. Underrated comic.

Hey I am a white man and I ate government cheese when I was little. Don't pick on the cheese man.

@hartfordsignpost589 2 года назад

No one is picking on anyone. It is comedy.

@speedingatheist 2 года назад

Damn, they followed some shoppers already in 1986. For NO reason. Horrible.

@Michael-jw6et 4 месяца назад

They followed both black and white shoppers if they looked suspicious. I am as white as they come, but in the 80s, I had long hair, listened to heavy metal, and wore black a lot. I was followed all the time in stores. It isn't just black people, even though the democrats want you to think that. And, also, there is nothing wrong with security following or keeping an eye on someone they feel is suspicious. it's their job.

Still waiting for meteorman 2.....that was one of the best superhero movies ever.....either chemicals/energy from the meteor reactivate in any crazy way or the rest of the meteor is draw to him slowly because of his exposure to it in the past and that's why it took so long..... Robert Townsend rules

@hartfordsignpost589 2 года назад

He is one of the best comedians ever. I don't see any new stuff with him. The PC police must be keeping him locked up.

@lanolinlight Год назад

He's been making movies and television for the past ~35 years.

Seinfeld is SOO overrated.We just have a population with a abstract? sense of humor,not based on actual comedy.
