Keenen Ivory Wayans should really consider producing his own MasterClass. He seems to have a great balance between humor, Intelligence and wisdom -- Not necessarily in that order. He has a generous ability to recognize talent of others with a willingness to put them in the forefront, while he seems to find gratification in supporting their talent from the sidelines.
He really does seem a rarity among all races and genders. And he seems to be very patient and well considered in everything he does. It's very impressive.
@@Deception975 yoooo, his 'Airplane', 'Naked Gun' movies and the parody movie he did about 'The Fugitive' called 'Wronfully Accused' was hysterical. I can watch them over and over 🤣😂🤣😂
When it came out, I was thinking, Yo'. The Wayans family are the Jackson (5) Family of Comedy, no doubt about it. Everyone of them is funny, even Shawn (SW1) and Marlon. (You can't forget about "Tito" too.)
Loved his facial expressions and his acting. David you a legend bro. You brothers will never know how much I appreciate your show in sunny south Africa. Bring back memories thanks again Keenan and the whole team.
There was an interview years ago with Damon and he broke down crying talking about Kenan. He said he loves his brother and what he did for the entire family for generations is mind blowing.
But he made sure they earned their keep though. That entire family is so talented and working with each other, I feel, helped them all step up to new levels. In Living Color is what made me want to watch the show that Shawn and Marlon had for a few years, it drew me to Jamie Foxx and his show/movies, as well as the original Scary Movie and Scary Movie 2.
Kim Wayans playin Crystal Waters was my top 5 skit pick. Kim was such a strong presence on that roster, and is still one of my favorite people of all time
I never had a comfortable or affectionate relationship with my parents, but sitting down and watching In Living Color with them was one of the few times I felt like we were a family. Thank you, Keenan.
@@Rah-know Yes, it's all good. I always look at it as he loves her and appreciates her. She got a lot of slack for her looks from the black community for a while. There were jokes. She is strong apparently and beautiful
A few months ago I watched that sketch of the two gay movie critics doing the football part and it turned my stomach to watch it as a grown man. It was funny as a teen. hard to watch. Turned it off.
True because it was "ROTFLMBO!" even if it offended people of ALL cultures, religion and politics. They were free to laugh, joke, be silly and present a platform for my generation to partake of their hilarious creativity as they saw and felt it. With the nature of today's communication means and social media outlets creative artists, producers, and entertainment executives are more self-conscious about their image and worried about how any backlash can affect their financial bottom line. This results in the stifling of the freedom of artistic creativity
That was one of the best fucking skit ever on that show.....it still cracks me the fuck up till this day....🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣......even the real shabba had to laugh at himself
*Fireman Marshal Bill *Man on Film *The Head Detective *The Jamaican family wth all them Damn jobs *Homey the Clown *Ms. Bonita the gossiper *Wanda *The Man ( Damon Wayans in the prison sketch) * Duke (dead dog) w/ Jamie Foxx *Calhoun Tubbs wrote a song about this wanna here it *The restaurant with Tommy Davidson as the cook *Funky Finger Production There were so many. They kept me in stitches #A Classic
Im definitely feeling this. I would pre order tickets for that movie or I'd subscribe to whatever network for a trial period for it. That needs to happen.
Considering he was in two movies before In Living Color(one of which, had fellow co-star, Damon Wayans) came out, I'd say his roots were already planted. In Living Color just helped put him into more peoples homes.
"Senator Hemsley gave me my first job, wrote a song bout it like to hear it here it go" I shine Senator Hemsley shoes fo a penny!!! Neva got paid!!! AHHHHHHHAAAAA thank u very much!!! Now that Senator Hemsley is my landlord...Seen em throw ol Ladies' out n da gutta.... AHHHHHHHAAAAA thank u very much!!!!

Even though I and others didn't get on, Keenan helped open doors for all of us and helped us get gigs and opportunities that we might not have had.

The career trajectory that branched off this show alone. And all are icons in their own right. True _ILC_ fans know that seasons 1 to 4, was the show at its height. The final season produced some good moments like "Cheap Pete" by Chris Rock, "The Dirty Dozens" and "East Hollywood Squares", but that was pretty much it. You can't honestly do a show like _ILC_ in 2019 for reasons that way too obvious. What made the show what it was, not only seeing people in color, but the embracement of hip hop on a major level similar to what Arsenio Hall's late night talk show did when hip hop began to dominate on a mainstream level. Timeless and iconic. All of them have gracefully aged too. Long live _ILC_ #ILC
Yes, out of everything they had discussed on the panel - that stuck out to me the most. I remember studying in college that T.V. was intentionally used to program and control the American citizen in every way possible.
Love me some Kim Wayans! Who remembers her sketch w/ David Alan Grier “Lil Magic”? She played the lil girl that would audition for roles and David was her mom 😂

“We stillll together!” Thank you Kim Wayne, my husband and I have just celebrated 30 years of marriage and this is what we say to each other each year! Though times are rough and we have grown into very different people since being married in 1990 at age, 17 and 18, this saying makes us smile every time! Thank you for the smiles!
You mean the current era where i just watched a show where a little kids imaginary friend told him to "fuck her face" as dating advice? Remember the days when you couldnt say pregnant on tv? 75% of tv nowadays wouldnt have stood a chance in the 90's.
Thanks for the the show and uplift. I was 20 years old in the Army. Deployed for combat in Panama. We found a VCR had family record you show and shipped us VHS to watch In Living Color in Panama. From the soldiers of 5 battalion 21st infantry Fort Ord, California 1990. "Cold Steel"
I think Kim really opened and held that foundation for black female comedy sketch artist..Ellen Cleghorne was doing her thing very shortly after on SNL, then later Debra on MadTv
*Thank you Keenan Wayans & Robert Townsend for your visionary genius and to all of the legendary comics for their brilliant contributions and to the whole **#InLivingColor** staff team. And much respect to Bruno Mars paying homage to the show in his **#Finesse** video with Cardi B.*
"I knew something good was gonna happen because when I woke up my big toe was swollen and my uterus has been doin' flips all day!!!!!!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Kim Wayans...."Low Down Dirty Shame" will never get old to me! I love all of them on stage, we lived for In Living Color!!!
David Allen Greer is one of the funniest comedians I've ever seen,....Living Color to Martin with Reverend Leon Lonnie Love, hahahaha,..boy you are a master of Black neighborhood characters,...that is your true comedic calling !!! Plus Tommy Davidson with Varnell Hill was also a masterpiece,..man In Living Color was Trial By Fire for the greatest black comedians there ever was,...and let's not forget the Fabulous Jim Carrey,..who to me was a complete master that could hang with any, if not dominate any stage in the world,..not to short change the rest of the cast,..but those were my top picks !!!
@@mikekillagreen9432 No,..I just commented out the blue !! Gtfoh !! He said he wanted to be a serious actor and not a comedian,..but guess what,..that's what he turned out to be !!! ( lol) ( Wikipedia)--David Alan Grier (born June 30, 1956)[1] is an American actor and comedian. He is best known for his work on the sketch comedy television show In Living Color. (Can you read) ?
@@mikekillagreen9432 Look geek,..find you somebody else to troll,..He's a comedian,..and yes he was trained to be a serious actor,..but then other opportunities arose !! I think you're the one that isn't too bright !!
I like that because respect is respect and it is very much needed in this day and time. You have to demand respect because if you don't do that then you won't get any.
WOW!!!! Keenen has not aged one bit!!! He looks fantastic!! I have to thank him for the amazing shows he has created. Especially In living color!! He is a genius!! Thank you sir!!!
I loved watching [LIVING COLOR] back in the day.😊 Robert Townsend and Keenan Wayans These brothers are true [LEGENDS] And a salute to the other cast members on the show as well for making the show great. 😏

Tommy Davidson and Davin Alan Grier, two of **THE MOST UNDERRATED** comics of all time.
The shaq an kobe of comedy
Agree
@@chomar97 huh
Agreed! They were both hilarious! So many all starts from in living color
David is a great storyteller as well, love when he's been on with Howard Stern.
Who misses in living color.. Meeeeeeee....
You just answered for everybody like literally who don't miss that show it was the funniest shit to ever come out
Me shit
Me too
Yeah I miss that show In LIVING COLOR
Denise Abrams i wish they reboot in living color & bring everybody back
I would never believe David was not a comedian he’s sooo funny.
It's like that with Leslie Neilson too. He did decades of serious acting, even playing a few villains. Before he started doing comedy.
Omg I know right. I always thought he was a comedian. He always made me laugh hysterically. Men on films was my favorite to watch.
I know right. He is hilarious without even trying.
@@Deception975 yoooo, his 'Airplane', 'Naked Gun' movies and the parody movie he did about 'The Fugitive' called 'Wronfully Accused' was hysterical. I can watch them over and over 🤣😂🤣😂
He could also be a Shakespearean actor at the same time
The Wayans family legacy is incredible. The vision to launch so many careers, and be involved in iconic content. In Living Colour forever.

@@kshinokevin Indeed they got an incredible legacy. New generation of their children are also funny👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿💯
Robert Townsend did so much for our people and w class!!!! He employed Hundreds of Black actors and comedians. Hollywood Shuffle is STILL hilarious 😂
I just watch Hollywood Shuffle last week man I miss the black movies from back then.
JHERI CURL!
He was on Black Lightning recently
Hollywood Shuffle is a freaking classic!!!!
Bring #PartnersInCrime back I retweeted that to @RobertTownsend
All I want to say is thank you Robert Townsend and Keenan Wayans.
Amen... Without them comedy wouldn't be as good as it was or as good as it is now
Aaron Lester man yeah Black Excellence
Snl the Richard Pryor show paved the way for in living color and mad tv
@Tiger Dragon shut up
Me too. They really made it happen.
David Allen is one of the funniest people who ever lived.
He has a small but hilarious part in the movie [ Amazon Women on the Moon ]
Loved his facial expressions and his acting. David you a legend bro. You brothers will never know how much I appreciate your show in sunny south Africa. Bring back memories thanks again Keenan and the whole team.
I agree very underrated
Yes! I feel we were robbed of his genius! He deserved to go further.
Keenan put damn near his whole family on lol respect ✊🏿✊🏿💯💯
As well as JLo and rosey perez
There was an interview years ago with Damon and he broke down crying talking about Kenan. He said he loves his brother and what he did for the entire family for generations is mind blowing.

I guess the others got held up in Albuquerque

This is the original cast
LOL
Kim Wayans is a beautiful black Queen👑
I agree. Even if she did marry a caucasian man. 🙋♂️
They all got shiny heads like they smack the whole bunch of oil on a face
@Chris I always thought she was beautiful
@Nickey she married a white man? R they still married?
christopherthevoice Yes she is 👑
They need to do a full reunion. We need Jamie Foxx, Jim Carey, Damon Waynes, Kelly Park as well
Kelly who??
That would be too lit. I'd love to hear some of Jamie and Jim's memories
@@s.j.l.8252 hope they mean Kelly coffeild lol she was awesome as well!!
Kelly Coffield married Steve Park (also from In Living Color), so her name is Kelly Park.
Yes please
In living color was one of the best innovative comedy sketch shows ever created on network television in the 1990s!
This show would blow SNL out of the water.
The Wayans all have aged so well, Keenan is 60 years old. LIKE WOW
Totally! They all look fantastic and in great shape. It's inspiring.

Kim Wayans playin Crystal Waters was my top 5 skit pick. Kim was such a strong presence on that roster, and is still one of my favorite people of all time
She’s a genius
I never had a comfortable or affectionate relationship with my parents, but sitting down and watching In Living Color with them was one of the few times I felt like we were a family.

And sad... I’m sorry sis😔
Wow that was real hey i want to hug you cuzz damn...i kinda felt like i knew them personally as a kid

David Alan Grier #UnderratedComedian is very smart and brilliant he has the best answer for every question....
Stevie Newby I think he started as a classical actor playing Shakespearian characters like Others😘
He's one of my favs!
Yeah the show probably changed hi perspective in life as well...lol
Kim has aged like a fine bottle of wine she's beautiful
I was just saying that! She's amazing!
My applause is because this woman was natural with her hair decades before the movement. She is a pioneering beauty!
She likes white guys though....
I know right I was like damn!!!!

David Alan Grier is a national treasure. He is truly talented. His "Anton Meriwhther" character on the show still is funny AF to this day.
Kim's character name was Banita Batrell.
Love her I ain't the one to gossip so U ain't heard it from me. Lmfao
I absolutely loved the skit she did of Tracy Chapman😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
"Don't you dare say nothin bad about miss Jenkins!" 😂

She looks better with age
@Natisha Kamara...No u haven’t 😂
David Alan Grier is one of my favorite comedians. He's very underrated.

I love him as an actor in movies.
He still kills me as "Reverend Leon Lonnie Love" on "Martin".
VERY!!!

Men on Film is one of the greatest sketches in any show ever.
How can anyone dislike the greatness this show provided for us and open doors for other shows
Probably just the host... not a fan
Or it's the fact the video is still 360p, lol.
Or maybe other castmates aren't present.. looks like the reunion before the reunion
Haters are gonna hate thats their job.
Sad... But there will always be haters.
Jamie Fox as Lawanda, Jim Carey as Fire Marshall Bill, they were hilarious
My favorite skit is when Marlon Wayne’s imitated the Jamaican rapper “Shaba”
....oh my gawd .....simply hilarious 🤣😂🤣
Mr. Ugly Man...Jabba(shabba)😂😂
🎶 Champion lover, don’t come home tonighttt. Noooo! 🎶 😆😂🤣

Exactly. That was a very good point! 🔥
The “mutants” ☠️☠️☠️😂
They need a "WAYANS MOVIE" I just want to hear and see more of this family! They are amazing!
Im definitely feeling this. I would pre order tickets for that movie or I'd subscribe to whatever network for a trial period for it. That needs to happen.
I would like to know more about their beginnings.
Perhaps a reality show.
With John Witherspoon playing the father, that would've been perfect (like the Wayans Bros show) . But sadly he had passed away recently :(
I was just thinking an in living cokor movie that incorporate some of the funny characters
Tommy Davidson as the cook in the restaurant hollering pick up next! Lol

And now you're part of history in being apart of that... ;) hahaaa
I am in tears watching this. Loved them so much, it's so wonderful to see them all again.
Did the nostalgia make you cry? You are so fortunate.
In Living Color was the root to Jim Careys successful acting career
indeed
Indeed!
Considering he was in two movies before In Living Color(one of which, had fellow co-star, Damon Wayans) came out, I'd say his roots were already planted. In Living Color just helped put him into more peoples homes.
Also no dancing j.lo
And Jamie Foxx
I still remember the lineup for Friday night. Martin, Living Singing and In Living Color. Great Tv and I miss good Tv like that.
Absolute TRUTH!
Martin and living single were Thursday nights. In living color was on Sunday's
@Rudolph Manor when it first aired it was Sunday
How do you remember that... it didn't happen that way
They must've been repeats. Because Martin came on Thursday nights and In Living Color came on Sunday nights.

I agree
People would loose their mind....😂😂
You mean the current era where i just watched a show where a little kids imaginary friend told him to "fuck her face" as dating advice? Remember the days when you couldnt say pregnant on tv? 75% of tv nowadays wouldnt have stood a chance in the 90's.
Amen
@@jaybrewster2475 damn right man
Keenan is a good man to put his family on and give them a great opportunity..
Thanks for the the show and uplift. I was 20 years old in the Army. Deployed for combat in Panama. We found a VCR had family record you show and shipped us VHS to watch In Living Color in Panama. From the soldiers of 5 battalion 21st infantry Fort Ord, California 1990. "Cold Steel"
Damn Kim Wayne hasn't aged. Miss in living color.
I said the same thing as soon as I seen her like you look better now 25 plus years later. Get it then!!!
Kim is so crazy sexy cool.
*Kim Wain
Wayans 😉💖
Yeah Sista Kim is looking very Good
“Men on” will forever be funny 3 snaps in a Z formation 😂
men on cooking
" when they are too many men on the field, Refs call it illegal, I call it PARTY TIME...!" - Damon Wayans "Men on... football" ROFL
😂😂😂😂 anything with a woman in it...."hated it" 😂😂
HATED IT!!
Hated it
He said "its called programming for a reason"
MESSAGE!!
Jasper Hill this will fly over some heads
LOL, I get the reference for sure
We need more comedy like this today in 2020. Every character was just too funny.
It'd be cancelled in seconds today lol.
@@kendallrivers1119 I was coming to say this!
I think Kim really opened and held that foundation for black female comedy sketch artist..Ellen Cleghorne was doing her thing very shortly after on SNL, then later Debra on MadTv
Don't forget T'keyah Crystal Kemah (sp), she was hilarious too!
@@f.p.2784 Yes. People overlook her talent.
Wow! Thank you for remembering Ellen Cleghorne!
@@f.p.2784 Without doubt! Funny and very beautiful
@@diva4tv Absolutely..very funny woman.
*Thank you Keenan Wayans & Robert Townsend for your visionary genius and to all of the legendary comics for their brilliant contributions and to the whole **#InLivingColor** staff team. And much respect to Bruno Mars paying homage to the show in his **#Finesse** video with Cardi B.*
Culture vultures they are trynna take are music.and black people just be agreeing with.everything
David Alan Grier should do a serious role with Jordan Peele.
He can be both hilarious and very dark. (Tales From The Crypt)
He just did a serious and scary role on Queen Sugar. He was FABULOUS!!!!
He was scary in the movie but I loved him on the Cool Kids and I'm mad it got canceled.
WILD WUNZ Machine Productions yea tales from the hood he showed a different range
"I knew something good was gonna happen because when I woke up my big toe was swollen and my uterus has been doin' flips all day!!!!!!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Kim Wayans...."Low Down Dirty Shame" will never get old to me! I love all of them on stage, we lived for In Living Color!!!
"It's called programming for a reason" - #1 thing I caught out of this whole interview
Legendary! Kim is so underrated as a comedian. We need more Kim
When she said , "Is that a challenge?" All of them looked like they wanted to roast her at once! Hahahaha
😆
Kim Wayans was ahead of her time I love her!!
David Allen Greer is one of the funniest comedians I've ever seen,....Living Color to Martin with Reverend Leon Lonnie Love, hahahaha,..boy you are a master of Black neighborhood characters,...that is your true comedic calling !!! Plus Tommy Davidson with Varnell Hill was also a masterpiece,..man In Living Color was Trial By Fire for the greatest black comedians there ever was,...and let's not forget the Fabulous Jim Carrey,..who to me was a complete master that could hang with any, if not dominate any stage in the world,..not to short change the rest of the cast,..but those were my top picks !!!
The funny thing is he is not a comedian. Did you watch this video? Lol
@@mikekillagreen9432 No,..I just commented out the blue !! Gtfoh !! He said he wanted to be a serious actor and not a comedian,..but guess what,..that's what he turned out to be !!! ( lol) ( Wikipedia)--David Alan Grier (born June 30, 1956)[1] is an American actor and comedian. He is best known for his work on the sketch comedy television show In Living Color. (Can you read) ?
David has always been one of my favorites! I can just hear him saying, "Now listen here, home skillet" 😂😂😂😂😂
@@4687878 Wikipedia?!!! Really? Now I know you're not terribly bright.
@@mikekillagreen9432 Look geek,..find you somebody else to troll,..He's a comedian,..and yes he was trained to be a serious actor,..but then other opportunities arose !! I think you're the one that isn't too bright !!
Excellent show. Thank you all for such great memories. There will never be another show like it.
Kim hasn’t aged a bit. 😌
My mother used to work with Keenen Ivory Wayans she said white men with stand up and fear him when he came in that room he demanded respect
yet one of the shows greats was a white man!
@@rockiemountin7535 ??? your fucking stupid! dumb ass comment!
I like that because respect is respect and it is very much needed in this day and time. You have to demand respect because if you don't do that then you won't get any.
Mike V Boohooo🖕
I bet
David Allen Grier is AMAZING. If I see his name, I know I’m in for a good time. American treasure right there.
Im.just here to say they all still look great. Very healthy beautiful people. I love you all. 🤗🤗🤗😘😘😘😘😘🤗🤗

I just LOVE Keenan Ivory Wayans. Not only is he a great creator, visionary and Legend, he also has such a wonderful Spirit!
I just feel like Jim Carey and Jamie should've been here...
Yeah - and Marlon & Damon too, that would have been nice
A few of them should have been there... I'm sure jamie and jim are busy cause they both doing movies as well speak
Exactly
The working actors are busy.
