Rodney Dangerfield Introduces the World to the Diceman (1987) 

The world is lesser without Rodney. Always my favorite comedian

In the 80's every guy did lines from Dice 🤣🤣🤣

I saw this the night it aired. Dice Clay was a phenomenon back in the 80s. He packed stadiums...not clubs, stadiums.

I was 13 when this came on TV. My dad left iHBO on and i saw this. My mind was blown….classic! Long Live Diceman

I saw Rodney Dangerfield live back in the 80's. He told jokes non-stop for 3 straight hours. My sides ached for 2 days from laughter. There will never be another like him. True legend!

The 80s were an awesome time to grow up in

I have seen this 100 times never gets old.

Haven't seen this since I was a kid. Laughed so hard like it was yesterday. God I miss the 80s!

Rodney helped Dice, Jim Carrey, Tim Allen and many more. Thanks Rodney, you have my respect.

Rodney Dangerfield is easily one of the best comedians in history! RIP

Banned from MTV. Brilliant and talented comedian. Great actor and writer as well.

I was in my mid 20’s when Dice first became a star,he was so different from other comedians and became a huge mega star, and me and my friends loved him.

I love his whole demeanor. He’s a great character actor.

I remember seeing this for the first time.. Him and Sam kinison.. Those were good days

Such a wonderful and beautifully wholesome man.

ADC is still and forever be “The King of Comedy”!! 🎭🙏🏻

Saw him live in 1988, he tore the audience up, we loved it! 🤣😂

Wow, I remember classmates in high school quoting Diceman back in the 80's while at our lockers. Memories....

The younger generation wouldn't understand. But we love this guy.

I actually watched this when it originally aired on HBO. I was 10 or 11 at the time. I watched these comedy specials on HBO constantly. Rodney's specials like this were amazing. I was introduced to Dice, Steven Wright, Bob Nelson, Rita Rudner, Robert Townsend, the late, great Bob Saget, the late, great Sam Kinison, so many of the legendary comedians of the era. Between Rodney's specials and the Def Comedy Jam, it was a golden age of stand-up.

This ladies and gentlemen is the one and only time you will see this act without the crowd finishing the lines.

You gotta give him one thing... he had the room in his hand

Man these were the days!!! The days of Cheers, the Goonies (when child actors could act), Police Academy, Delirious, The Burbs. The 80s was beyond brilliant 💯

The day the laughter died part 2 is one of the best pieces of comedy of all time! I still listen to it regularly! ❤️🙌🏻

I remember watching this the first time it aired. Me and my friends nearly fell off the sofa we laughed so hard. I miss the Dice Man.

Greatest comedic debut ever. Never will forget the night this special aired and the Diceman came on. Could not stop laughing. Star is born.

I remember watching this when it was on tv. Love Rodney and The Dice man!

Proud to have grown up seeing these specials.

“After ten minutes it gets boring ya know? That’s why I wear a Walkman” 😅😅

As someone born in 1990, I never really listened to The Dice Man, but my parents loved him, but sent me to bed when he was on TV. This was in my recommended and is my first time truly sitting down and listening and I am hysterical!!! I envy those who got to enjoy him when he was big, but also when you could make jokes about anything and anyone and people laughed...because it was a joke. Wow.

I agree comedy back then was the greatest. I got a chance to see him years later. And he was so hilarious live.

What made Dice Dice was his playing off the crowd. Dude is a master improviser.

Miss him and Sam Kinison so much. Both unforgettable masters of degradation humor. Fantastic!

Imagine if ADC had hosted the Oscars this year?! The whole audience would have been in a bar fight.

The Dice MAN! In HS we used to watch the VHS all the time. LOL Always hilarious. Wish he was still doing what we STILL love.

ADC was a character comedian. He was personally the exact opposite in real life. From what ive found out, he was a genuine man and a good person. He filled a spot in comedy history that will NEVER be filled again, just like Dr Dirty. Enjoy it for its perspective and humor, and dont take it personally. Be well my friends😁

I loved Dennis Miller’s assessment of Dice: “He’s Fonzi with Terrets”

I watched this the night it premiered. We laughed our asses off. We had watch parties for Rodney's Young Comedians and the Mike Tyson fights.

You're getting ALL the respect and more now Mr Dangerfield 🙏🏽

I first heard Dice in 88 or 89 thanks to my older brother. I was 12 or 13. He killed it then, still killing it in 2023!

The 80's was a helluva drug... know what I'm sayin'?

Glad i was alive then. 1980's. The best.

This what I miss about America. We never used to get offended by things and everything is fair game when it comes to Comedy. I remember seeing this live, I was stoned, loved it then Still Do. Thank You Mr. Dangerfield, love your stuff please keep up the great work.

He's definitely old-time hysterical I miss those days

I actually recorded this on a VHS tape back the eighties one of the best comedian shows ever That's an understatement

Rodney helped a lot of young comedians out. The Dice Man and Tim Allen funny as hell in different ways. There will never be another Rodney Dangerfield I'd start laughing when he walked on stage and still be laughin at something he said the next day.

I saw that Rodney special, man it was great. So many big names nowadays they were just starting then.

Dice owes a lot to Rodney.RIP Rodney.

I love how he comes in hot with nursery rhymes. 😂

Had the great fun of going to 'Dangerfields' back in the mid 80's. Even the warm up guys were good. Jackie Mason performed as the headliner that night. So good.

This is the America I wish we where in

This is when the RU-vid algorithm gets it right.

I remember recording this at 15 on VHS ( yeah I'm that old) off of HBO. And after Dice performed my mind was blown. Dude was saying stuff I'd never heard before. Stuff that definitely wouldn't fly today. I still have his whole routine memorized. What a great special. I still remember the other comedians who were on the bill. The late Bill Hicks, Carol Leifer, Lenny Clarke, Barry Sobel and Dom Irrera. Great memories.

Now days that would never fly.I love the dicemans comedy.

The 80s awesome time there will never be a time like the 80s people were real .

Back when America had balls and swagger, and people could take a joke.

The silent mannerisms are the best part of the act.

I love his nursery rhymes!

love it. the dice man was hilarious.

"little boy blue, he needed the money" 😂

This was a revolutionary performance. You can tell there were a few in the audience who were just mortified. Others laughed their asses off because they just thought it was funny and they didn't care that it was crude and offensive. I am part of that crowd!

I had the cassette tape of his, listened to it at least 1000 times

Two funniest guys ever on the same stage. 👍

I never new I would miss this guy. 80s were the glory days.

It was really Redd Foxx who introduced "Dice" on his comedy special. "Dirty Dirty Jokes," in 1983.

I remember my time in those days. Watching this on Mary Jane. I was young, now that I look back at it; it's still funny to me. I just turned 50 yrs old last month, May 26; and loving life as always. Life is beautiful

It gets no better comedically than this !!!

Amazing! The delivery, the act! Love it. It all goes to show, it's not what you say, but how you say it. Great lesson for all comedians

I remember this moment, Andrew Dice Clay's flame burned bright for only a short time but it was great.

Timeless !!!

Now comedy is in the “please don’t cancel me” box😢

Best VHS comedy tape I ever had!.It had this special,Robin Williams live at the met,and a Bob Cat Goldwait stand up all on one 6 hour tape.Amazing!!

"It's a three piece act, bitch" haha Him and Sam Kinison were absolute legends to me as a kid.

Ahhh I love watching the old sets of any great comedian... Makes me see where I get all the little bits of my personality I have now as a married adult when my wife wonders where it all came from. 😅

I'll never forget catching Dice's stand up special on cable when I was a tween. It was REALLY late night and I felt like I was really getting away with watching something dirty. I even convinced my mom to buy me his comedy albums on cassette.

Rodney Dangerfield was an absolute masterpiece/masterclass of a hilarious comedian/comedic actor, and a man amongst men! Comedy awesomeness!

I'm so glad I grew up when I did! My friends and I would always go back and forth with his nursery rhymes all the time.

The Diceman... oh yeah! We need more like this 🙏 👏

Rock-a-bye Baby on the treetop don't look at me kid, I ain't ya pop My personal favorite dice nursery rhyme

"What are we backing a truck in here!?" 🤣 I'm dead

Dice was a truly unique act when he landed on the scene. He’s still the most extreme comedian I know of. It’s a great reminder that a free society means the right to express ourselves even when it’s sure to offend people. Everything will offend someone. Likewise, those people have the right not to listen. I’m worried about the censorship today as it’s a slippery slope with no end to it.

I remember seeing this live and thought it was cutting edge - today it's more like cutting room floor.

Just another reason to love Rodney!!!!

Transport me back to this time. It was so fun and careless. I'll let the medical field know about what's coming up in 2020.

This kid has potential. He should try doing universities. UC Berkeley maybe. I think he’d kill up in Portland too. They would LOVE this type of comedy.

Can we go back to these days please? How did we get to where we ended up

When I first saw this on HBO in 1987 I laughed so hard that I missed a lot of his jokes, it took two more times watching it to hear it all.

And everyone survived. Let's bring back the comedy!

Dice is the king, I just saw him live like 5 hours ago and im still in the afterglow OOOHHH!

I was walking my elderly sick mother in-law up the ramp to the airplane in Reno. Right behind us was Andrew Dice Clay and his entourage. I glanced back at him to see the look of exasperation on his face as we took tiny little steps all the way up the ramp. I chucked to myself seeing this bad ass looking crew all hyped up in black studded leather jackets, pants, and boots, with hair all greased back taking tiny little steps all the way up the long ramp. But they did not utter a word and were quite polite.

Waaay ahead of his time. I can't imagine the balls it takes to try this at this time. 👌 I remember watching this as a small child. My family was real. Repect for the dice man.

35 years later...exactly how we still feel. Nothing changes

Its amazing that this was the night, appearing on HBO, that made him a comedic superstar. I remember my uncle watching this, and I was about 10.

I love every second of this. Dice is King!

I remember watching this when it came out. I was 12 LOL 😂 And all the great comedians, Dice, Rodney, Eddie Murphy, Sam Kennison, George Carlin, Robin Williams, etc. Can you imagine these guys going on stage nowadays? lmao

We need to get back to this place. If we can't make fun of each other, we're screwed. this guy used to fill stadiums.

saw the Diceman last week @ Parx Casino just outside of Philly .... he was awesome ...

Had the honor and pleasure seeing THE DICE MAN live!!! Laughed so much and so hard my ribs hurt for over a week!!!

This was his best performance of his career, done at one of the best comedy clubs.

GREATEST...INTRO....EVER. I remember watching it on HBO at the time...knew this was something special
