    This is a spin off series of SNL called The New Show airing on February 3rd, 1984. (Penny Marshall also made her only appearance on Letterman the same week.) This is Season 1 episode 4 (the only season, it was cancelled in March of the same year with only 9 unique episodes airing.)

      @ We brought the dancers to so what are you yapping about. Hollywood picked Puerto Ricans to feature in their movies over black dancers because they wanted it to cross over to a white audience. Black people invented modern dance , jazz, blues, rock and roll, rap and pop

      @@myronsmith2114 You're the one yapping! "Hollywood" picked Puerto Ricans for Wild Style and Beat Street(a Harrry Belafonte film)? Westernized Africans invented "modern dance"? Jazz is a repackaging of Western music with western instruments. 'Rock n Roll' is a generalized term, the same as 'Pop'. In order to build you need components. There are no african components in anything you use.
