Because we are the most stereotyped people. Black women generally don't act like this they just take our behaviors and make them over the top for the humour. If that makes any sense....
Tyler Perry does the same thing. SMH
It's a Sitcom Comedy, Sitcom doesn't have to be 100% accurate in real life
Stay mad
I've often wondered that myself. Like why is being a black woman the entire joke?
Because that's how ignorant black women acted. It's funny because it's true
It's an excuse to put on a minstrel show by saying it's just a satire and exaggeration of culture. Which was the same justification for minstrel shows 50 years ago (they started fading from popularity in the 70s).
I always thought it was because they wanted to go all out and be as extra as they could. Just like the Ask Ashley skit parodying how a spoiled brat acts and Kel playing a dumb teenage fast food worker.
I know many black women who don't act or look like this. It'd funny because they're low class with giant fingernails
The characterization is🥴😮💨😬THIS was a children's show at that! Imagine this was a talking point in someone's playground🥴
I honestly don’t care but I thought this sketch was so HILARIOUS 😂😂😂😂, black or white you gotta laugh at yourself every now and then
Exactly, people are too uptight in this comment section.
Unfortunately, it is sad but they’re going to continue to do this because you have people like Madea, and other characters of men playing black women, and the funny thing is whenever you call them out about it they always try to turn it around and make it seem like black women are or will forever be the butt of the joke when in reality if we play them like they portray us, it would definitely be a problem for them, smh
no the problem is who you're trying to blame for it.. who you think comes up with these ideas??? *other than tyler perry* these are *scripts given* to these sellouts. by who exactly? but who you wanna focus on?
@@50centricher9 DUH 🙄 I know that they’re sellouts but at the end of the day I said what I said and you don’t understand because you’re not a back woman. So you won’t understand.
@@vanessaknight2862but would u have the same energy once black men said the same thing about how WE are portrayed in media? Genuine question. Cause BW always come with their selective outrage when the jokes on them
But have nothing to say when it’s black men being the joke. And we are the butt of joke just as much as you. You don’t think we are hurt by this too? Especially because it is increasingly coming from BW. Very post on Twitter is bm this and bm that. You don’t think the everyday black man is tired of being shit on by his own women, racists, police, other bm, etc? We get ridiculed and lectured when we speak on our shit and are expected to man up and take it in stride. But BW? Always the victim of something and Bam are always the east target to take it out on.
It's funny because it's true. Everyone in the world knows at least 2 black women who act like that. They act wild and out of pocket so we make fun of it. And it's easy.
It's funny that people are complaining about them dressing this way but it was probably funny to people back then. No one made a peep.
Thank you for watching 🙏🏾 please subscribe
Well times were different back then. I was about 12 when this aired and yea I was laughing my ass off but back then I didn’t understand the ramifications this had on Black women. I’m in my 30s now and have a new perspective of what is right in media and what is wrong. I’ve think we’ve all come to better understanding of how we should be represented in media. Think of what the minstrel era did to the Black community, people learned over time that portraying Black people as caricatures was inappropriate and so they stopped even though it was a long haul before it was eventually wiped from Hollywood. This portrayal of Black women still happened today and is just as offensive as the minstrel era but the sad part is it’s our own people doing it which makes it in the eyes of YT people seem like it’s OK.
Hell this ish is still Hilarious After all this time... Regardless to what.... Real talk 💯.... One of the funniest scenes ever. Back then when this aired, my generation was a lil different 😂
Probably one of the cringiest things I've ever seen. Couldn't even finish watching it. And you KNOW there were white writers and producers behind this.
It's a DAMN skit.
@@corysmith4361 And? So it can't be cringy because it's a DAMN skit?
@@christopherdieudonne relax
@@corysmith4361 yupp. Relax, says the person who used all caps first.
@@christopherdieudonne 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It has literally become like a right of passage for black male actors (ESP. Comedians)🤦🏾♀️ Now they’re up here letting white men portray us in this derogatory way🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️
This is black people not understanding white culture. THEY think it’s funny. And they are trying to market shows/movies to THEM. I remember in high school we had cross dress day. Where girls dress like guys and vice versa. NO black men dressed like a girl but like 10 white kids (the small few we had) dressed up and was dying laughing because they thought it was a joke. Have you ever heard of white boy fun? Where they slap each others penises, or say gay things to eachother or do gay things to as a joke. It’s just what they find funny. So the dress thing isn’t funny to black people but a lot of white people find it hilarious and since white people are the bigger MARKET (66%) they will keep doing it because that will make more money. White comedians (Robin Williams, Jim Carey, etc.) do it too.
This was really bad. I don’t remember seeing this back in the day. We didn’t need another Shenaynay and Wanda. They were teenagers emulating what they saw adult comedians doing during that era. Not taking up for them. There was nothing innocent about this clip at all. So they were basically making fun of black women who they knew. Maybe even their family members. 😢 Funny how neither of them have children with black women. (Correct me if I’m wrong). I believe all of Nick’s children are with biracial women. (Yes, black but light skinned).
@@DrRaeLoveCoachI'm guessing you're not into Sitcom Comedy
@@DrRaeLoveCoach He has ONE brown skinned baby momma (but baby mommas is a whole nother thing - is he overcompensating got the emasculation and degradation he went through as a young man?)
That’s how we are portrayed and viewed
I miss this episode so much
they had is watching this as kids we use to laugh but now i look back like wtf
This is far less funny after you realize that the writers room for this show was all white men. Not to mention the negative stereotypes it must’ve instilled in the minds of young impressionable children of all races, some of whom had little to no interactions with black people outside of these television shows. Its very much giving minstrel show for kids. However you choose to look at it, this undeniably hurtful and dangerous imagery.
Yeah, on this show and Amanda Show, the characters they wrote for Black actors were plain caricaturish and problematic. Not to mention they often used the Black actors for the slapstick gags some of which involved being spit on. It's really tough having to see this through adult eyes.
I think it’s sad that this is a teen show which makes it worse.
Exactly 🤦🏾♀️
It wasn’t a teen show. It was a kid show. This is “All that.”
@@aderam648 I’m familiar with the show however it’s marketed towards teenagers or tweens.
This y’all community and y’all ain’t stop til this day 😒😒
I gotta admit, as a young Black teen at the time I found this hilarious. As an adult it’s super cringe. The biggest problem I really have with this is that it was probably pitched and written by YT ppl based on their views of Black women.
Shaneyney would never 😂 This did not age well. Where the fuck is Wonda??
Lol at all of the comments.
I actually found this funny back then (and I still do). Newsflash, parodies come from real-life situations, and if you look around you, there were black women that acted like this, and they still exist to this day. Get over it. Comedy doesn't care about your feelings.
And no I'm not PC.
Thanks you for saying it.
Comedy is comedy, I honestly think if you’re offended by this then maybe you’re just not a fan of comedy because not all Black people act like this
This is my cognitive dissonance, tbh. The comedic act is fine if it is truly done with honest and innocent intent to poke fun at literally anyone regardless of demographic. If so, then _that_ is comedy, indeed. So the question is if the writers, directors, and producers were disingenuously motivated behind the skit. And if they were, now the question is if the actors were or weren’t actually aware of that disingenuity as well. There are so many different areas that come into play that it’s important not to pigeon hole one’s agreement or disagreement so quickly or so early.
this definitely needs to be an SNL skit haha
As much as it was funny back then being a child, I’m so glad that the comment section actually taking the time to see the stereotypical black woman tropes can be harmful.
Terrible. They are playing themselves.
i understand being mad at them for agreeing to this, but i love how you and others are *more* mad at the actors than the people behind it. you got nothing to say about them (the producers, directors, script writers etc), but for the actors you got venom right?
I have someone arguing with me on a shade room post about Kenan and the person is saying that what they had these young actors do is completely ok and part of the culture. Sick.
Not a fan of it, tho making fun of Black (and ww, but they're not the focus here) women it has deep roots in comedy. I can recall comedian Flip Wilson doing this in the 70s and can recall old tv shows where white men did similar (Milton Berle, that movie Some like it hot).
if thats nick cannon then kell's wife may not be lying.
Funny how y’all were laughing right alongside us and now it’s a problem. Not to say it isn’t but let’s stop with the selective outage and backtracking.
Oh ok
No growth
So what R Kelly was doing in the 90s and early 2000s to young girls was overlooked many times. Should people have ignored it todays time because it was “acceptable” decades ago? Or did we realize how wrong it was
This is hilarious!!
It is, and who cares ! People getting so bent over it ! Laugh a little people ok ! Dramatic entitled white women are made fun of just as much !
Man this ish is hilarious. Tf i look like complaining about this now.
The fact that there was a time this wasn't seen as racist. This sh*t is so derogatory and insensitive.
Will you do a full video?
yes
They could have gotten actual funny females to play this , all the funny female comedians we had in the 80s & 90s 😒
Man these skits are still hilarious I remember when they brought the hood to All That back then and the comedy went UP! A lot of y’all looking to deep and yal kno damn well there STILL are people who really act like this they just exaggerated it a tad for the comedy.
Do people realize this is 1999? Its not recent at all.
Do you not realize that bm are still doing this ?? Tf
@@BooksandLooksTVBM?? This is a wyte TV show, wyte writers, and a wyte network so how tf BM the blame? They probably made them do it
@@ProtectTheBlack-W people get triggered too fast instead of practicing how to pause and think. What you said is true - until we see this being perpetuated by a mostly black or all black creation…many questions have to be asked. Thanks for using the brain that we all have and _can_ choose to use; it’s refreshing!
Josh Server and Danny Tamberelli could have done a very similar sketch as waitresses in a greasy spoon. Katrina Johnson did a whacky impression of Ross Perot. Laurie Beth Denberg portrayed all kinds of crazy white lady stereotypes. The premise of almost all the sketches on All That was of children mocking adults.
It’s humor and since days of old this has been a form of humor, women do it too. Everything is already serious. It was funny then it’s funny now. Jmop
It's interesting because when I was a child in the 90s the styling of the characters in this sketch reminded me of the girls that ran my afterschool program - The very gelled hair and long nails - and they were all so fun and nice so seeing this I was reminded of them for that reason even when they didn't act anything like this. Looking at it critically now as an adult I can see the issues black women would have with this and why it would offend them so much.
As someone who has worked in these stores, this is all too relatable. This and the movie Clerks 🤣
Lmao the 360
It’s crazy we used to watch this in the 90s I remember watching all the episodes now I look at it as adult it’s wild they accepted to be in a dress . & they were in the late teens early 20s making this being emasculated
This is just cringe
Back when minstrel shows were a thing, another element to it was not just having white men made up as black men but also the characters that they played would cross dress as well. Apparently back then it was not only funny to pretend to be a black person, but also pretending to be a black woman as well. I feel like this was kind of the the more contemporary equivalent of a minstrel show, only you have black actors playing black characters
Hilarious 🤣🤣🤣🤣
you bought 3 hotdogs for a quarter and they a little stretchy lol
you had to be there, this shit is hilarious, buck up ppl 😂
This is a classic skit 😂 I’m sorry you can be sensitive but I’m looking at two young black men who made up a skit to smile on people faces. I don’t think they meant any harm. If you haven’t seen BAPS you shouldn’t comment some negatively.
Ok bye
Devilish ritual
This ain't no damn ritual wtf. This skit ain't the reason for their success. Kenan still has to audition for roles
I don't find the stereotype funny. I laugh at the jokes, sarcasm, sass and the fact that Nick Cannon can dance in five inch heels.
They stole the concept from Martin shanaynay
Dressing up as a black woman isn't funny. Nick and Kenan being crazy dressed up as black women was funny.
nick was over the top almost real. wow!
I saw this on facebook, i thought it was kel , but found out it was nick cannon today . The commenrs though were postive and finding it funny from all shorts of people and here is so bitter . I bet if it was white workers and a poc rubbing it will be a problem to. Sadly some ppl add layers to stuff that is not there but when the tables are turn you all laughing right . Comedy is to laugh if you dont want ti laugh go watch news
some person never mind the race part nick cannon did that act way too well. he exuded a lot of feminine energy.
Hmmm, it looks like they were doing a parody of BAPS. All That was the SNL for children and teens, so they do parody’s all the time. Plus, you can see the BAPs influence in the costumes, from the hair to the nails. Not everything is a freaking attack. smh
So it's possibly being a parody of BAPS makes it okay? It's still wrong whether it's a parody or not. Stop acting like you don't understand that.
I’m a black man from Mississippi and this is hilarious to me. Of course you know why.. I love real women like this.. very fun to kick it with
Although BAPS is one of my favorite movies, even them actually being women was still a mockery/portrayal of how black women supposedly look and act from a "certain side of town", so the depiction was still happening regardless, imo-js. 🤷♀️ @@randomuser1105
@@randomuser1105If its wrong then go back all the way into the year 2000 and tell them it is
I always thought that these skits with Kenan and Nick were like BAPS. Glad I was not the only one 😂
Its not funny
This was never funny inwas confused about it when i seen it
Why can’t comedy just be that, comedy. Stop making it about something more then it is.
I think this is funny af lol.
Hey at least it was Nick Cannon that guy has to live with Mariah Carey he’s already created a personal Hell for himself you know it’s a bad match if someone like Eminem didn’t even want Mariah 🤣🤣. Kenan is the man though he’s the longest member of SNL and one of the funniest people he also did the smartest thing you can do which is keep your mouth shut right and keep collecting fat checks since childhood 😁
Fuck all that this shit THIS WAS WHEN AMERICA WAS GREAT😂
This shit funny
It’s not that deep
This is sickening
This is so bad
What’s up with this fake outrage about black men in dresses after Kat interview? I’ve been knew way before the katt interview about the dress thing. People it’s not that serious it’s just comedy. John cena Adam Sandler mark wahlberg all have been put in dresses also 🤦
Here 🍪
😂😂😂I miss this show❤❤❤
