The Business of Hollywood. Is a lot people hook up theirs friends with a job they never show up for. Especially producer who put their names on projects to give it some acclaim.
Lenny Henry, English comedian, actor, and writer, and Michael Jackson, American singer-songwriter, producer, dancer, and actor (The Jackson 5), were both born on this day 66 years ago. Happy Birthday!
I remember seeing this when it first aired on Three of a Kind, and it was absolutely brilliant. Its still really funny, and the sketch from that show I remember the best.

Back in the 1980s and 90s and even until relatively recently, Lenny Henry was a respected public figure. He had some great comedy characters (Theophilus P. Wildebeeste, Delbert Wilkins, Deakus etc.), appeared in other popular comedy productions, and some of his parody music was actually good music in its own right ( ua-cam.com/video/rEijph7t5S8/v-deo.html ). He didn't make it to the top in terms of TV and movie acting, but built up an impressive portfolio. He began his career with the usual embarrassments that all young artists suffer and played a number of questionable racial stereotypes (Zulu warrior, Fu Manchu etc.) that would have killed any career today, but those were less identity obsessed and fake-outraged days. Then, Lenny graduated to classical theatre with his critically acclaimed Othello while continuing to host the Red Nose charity that he had founded. All in all, a career and reputation to be proud of. Lenny was always quite safe and inoffensive. He never risked addressing controversial issues or made me laugh out loud, like Bill Burr. However, he was a much loved British household name. However, then, Lenny got woke, whiney and menopausal. He criticised the charity that he founded and its donors, the industry that made him wealthy, majority white open air concerts, and white British culture in general for being allegedly systemically racist. It seems that when non-white celebrities stop getting the work and public recognition they crave, the race card and victimhood are just too tempting to resist.
#LOL, this parody is earning almost 1,900,000 worldwide views!!!!!!!!! Currently, Lenny Henry and the late Michael Joseph Jackson are approaching their 64th birthdays!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Young Michael has hid his Mother's pride...But he also has a darker side. By Day, He glows with health and fitness...By Night,He's a Jehovah's Witness...This film will shock, Your flesh will creep...It's nasty,but is sure ain't cheap...And Michael will scream higher still...Just wait until he gets the bill.
Interestng fact; Lenny Henry and Michael Jackson born on the same day. August 29th 1958.
Oh I didn't know
Very true! I was flabbergasted when I noticed that
+M@B Interesting fact; Lenny Henry and Michael Jackson knew each other and Michael Jackson was rolling in tears at this parody.

Seriously!?
I saw this once in 1984 and have never forgotten it, I loved everything Lenny did back then.

Me too. Not sure why people say Lenny isn’t funny, I loved all his stuff.

Michael Jackson Watched This Just Before His Death
This is a surprisingly well produced parody. Thriller was the most expensive music video ever made. To parody it must have been expensive too.
Anurania at that time, it WAS the most expensive music video ever
Actually Michael is still at the top his video scream with his sis Janet. scream is the most expensive music video ever made, Still to this day.
Lenny & the BBC spent a fraction of what Jackson & Co. did on the original, but both vids look exactly the same.

OH, man, I remember seeing this WAY back there in the '80s.
Never thought I'd actually find it again, this is COOL!
Looooool! Fantastic, Lenny at his very best back in the 80's. Tune aint bad either!
The end kills me "good night Michael"😂
also killed me!!!!!😂😂😂😂😂

*karate chop* OWWAH! MOMMY 😭😭😭
I can’t believe those undead folks bothered and asking Michael for his autograph.
His mom at the very end looks like Oprah Winfrey does in real life.

I actually remember seeing this when it was first broadcast in the early 80s.... Dam I feel old 😊
I remember watching when it first aired. Bloody fantastic!
Gggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg
That's the legendary Bertice Reading as MJ's Mum at the end
Now _this_ is a parody. Not some unloyal crappy poorly written and sung song about 16-bit squares.
And Michael himself loved it and was launching hysterically at it
The David Bellamy zombie was well funny! Still in stitches😂
Gwapple my gwapenuts
He was born the same day as Michael #Coincidence
Ha - just come back to watch this again after hearing Thriller on the radio. What a great sketch
The song itself is just beyond hilarious, yet it's still low-key groovy hahahaha.
I didn'r realize how funny he is until now. This is my very 1st time watching this one. I like it .

Don't think this was Three of a Kind. It was from "The Lenny Henry Show" in 1984.

“That’s okay, I like weirdos” 😂
love it when he says the Aston Villa get its just so random! 😂
He was running out of things that rhymed with Thriller! :)
@@Alexanderiii He's from the Midlands so using Aston Villa seems apt. Maybe he is a Villa supporter too??
I went to a Halloween party with his red suit and an Aston Villa scarf! ... worked pretty well except I had to explain the joke to everyone under 35!
Aston Villa?!

I knew that the mother was gonna have the cat eyes at the ending
Excellent, yet disturbing: The zombies' faces look more alike to the corpses' real ones you see in forensics exhumations than MJ's ones...
Thank you,I thought of this the other day,and I just searched for it,brilliant memories of being a teen!
4:42 Reaction to The Making Of Michael Jackson's Thriller
If this happened now, people would find a way to be offended. Don't ask me how. People love to complain. It's brilliant though.

Thip C yeah?

Of course, he's dead now. They wouldn't complain about this if he's still alive.
thalee317 the point I'm making is that if someone did something like this now they'd be uproar.
"That's okay... I like weirdos!" Hahaha!
Brilliant sketch Lenny Henry was a genius this guys are really frightening and look like their fans of Aston Villa
ok this is now one of my top 3 parodies ever. funniest ive ever seem
So funny, everyone would love this, even people who weren't born in the 80s, when Thriller was made!
Robbie Coltrane doing the Vincent Price part

"Mommy"! that was so funny... LMAO! :-D
Oh come one Michael grow up

Lenny & BBC spent a fraction of what MJ did for the original, and they look identical.
lmaooooo!!!!! I'm wondering would that be MJ's own personal hell? Constantly being hounded by zombies asking for autographs?
" oh come on Michael grow up" lollolololol very funny
