The 90s was littered with his comedy brand and he gets no credit for it from the start In Living Color and then Kenan and Kel borrowed Martin borrowed Will Smith borrowed his brand of Comedy is gestures is mannerism all borrowed during the 90s by other comedians
For real, hahaha, he knew his entire bit was so funny, it’s kind of like when you’re telling a joke and you can’t help but to laugh as you’re telling it
DAG is a good friend of my sister in NYC. I went with her to meet him once & embarrassed myself because I kept thinking he was being funny when he was being serious. I wish I could say that I was a kid but....definitely was a grown ass man. Had to apologize to him bcuz dude is so damn funny to me
I am going to bet this took several takes to get in the can. This is probably the best they were going to get (when even David can barely contain his laughter, just imagine the takes before this one).
The fact that this is almost 20 years old and still as funny as the first time I saw is a true testament to the genius of "Martin". Kind of a shame the way shows like Seinfield and Friends get all this acclaim but Martin doesn't. It's held up better than many shows from the same era of television. Thanks so much for posting!!!
Wouldn't say underrated since Martin is still super popular thanks to reruns\dvd etc. also got over 100 episodes and is still one of the pillars of black television of the 90s and in general at least, most black shows don't even get that lol. I wish more underrated comedies like Becker, Roc, George Lopez, The Parkers, All of Us, The Steve Harvey Show etc would get more attention because they were GREAT shows and hold up better damn more than Friends or some others.
That part when he went back and dip down started whispering 😂😂😂😂😂 saying “the Holy Ghost told me” I loose it every time 🤣🤣😭if you listen closely he started laughing too at first I thought it was someone from the audience it’s him🤣🤣🤣
I need to write into my will that this clip gets played at my funeral intro and as I’m being wheeled out... #GetItPoppin 😁 🎤I’hi... gotta feelin... everythang gonna be alright 🎶 😂😂😂
Grier is so funny; a money-hungry, woman-lusting preacher. It hits me as funny when he hits that high note: "I I I got a feeling...." Grier has several education degrees under his belt, don't cha know.
Watching stuff like this have lifted my spirit because i be depressed and suicidal im so thankful for comedy and god i dont know what i would do honestly
Oooooo, y'all when DAG hit them big money notes on the part when he say, "🎶🎤 I !!! I !!!🎤🎶" and "🎶🎤THE HOLY GHOST WHISPUHH!!!🎤🎶"🤣! He always have me laughin so hard that I feel like I can't breeeeath on them parts! Then he turn right around and hit dat Moonwalk towards the end of the song! Chiiillle, comedy gold!😂
I remember watching this the night it first ran! I was 17-18 and I was in absolute tears! DAG is one of the most underrated comedians out there! He killed this role!
The Reverend Leon Lonnie Love deserves his own spin off show. David Alan Grier is so hilarious. He plays him to perfection. I'd low-key go to his church fully knowing he's a scammer. What a showman.
I just watched this episode last night for like the 300th time and I swear I laugh like I've never seen it before. Martin is hands down one of the best shows off all time.
It's so many hidden hilarious things in this scene it's crazy, the choir, the organ, the congregation and ofcourse David Alan Grier. It's easily one of the funniest scenes I've ever seen on a TV show.
David Alan Grier...so underated as a talent.😂
angelinajoanie I AGREE!

I agree!!!!
FrFr mo credit always found him funny as shit.
That little chuckle David Alan Grier made before whispering down the aisle was priceless. I know it was hard for him not to laugh.
He a damn fool
When he got down
I could not stop laughing

Rita So Sweet We don’t have comedy like this anymore y’all . This man is hilarious 🤣🤣#cephus&reesie
Thank God I grew up during this era of TV shows 😂
Shows like this and Married with Children would never be made today. They're so good.
I’m grateful too it was a blessed era!
Yeah a time, when funny was actually funny and *NOT FORCED*
Exactly
Facts without this reality TV crap
Still one of the greatest entrances of all time 😂
Right up there with Dame Dash in State Property!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Doing the fkn most !!!!😂😅
Yoo I know David kept his family laughing growing up.. Probably stayed in Trouble in school.
Don't forget when BelBivDevoe was on Fresh Prince...lol
David Allen Grier is a phenomenal comedian... He has been slept on for years very talented Man
He definitely needs more respect a real legend

david allen grier wanted to laugh when he saw martin hide his face ...crazy funny
I think he was laughing at the song
Lol he never could hold it in he was usually the first to break, when he was on in living color he would lose it a lot on the Wanda skits
@@TheTCMfan That is so so true. I remember this. I loved this about his personality. It seemed like he really enjoyed his own comedy.
IamVickie Sur me too he just seems like somebody who loves what he does and finds it just as funny as we do
True, true! When he looked at Martin he almost lost it. 😂😂 P. S. I know I am replying 5 years later to your post, but the scene is classic!!
"The Holy Ghost Whisper!!" THAT....never gets old.
He is a whole mess. I immediately started crying. That entrance is crazy!
SCREAMIN!
Omfg the funniest ever. The way she just starting playing the piano literally killed me.
The “done told me” kills me EVERY TIME
This was like Martin and In Living Color all wrapped up in one scene. Hilarious
If Ressie had popped in, I'd a died!!! 😆
That holy backpedal was crucial though! 😂
That ish was fiyah!! 🔥🔥🔥
Not the Holy Backpedal🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣That is my favorite part🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂🤣
This has to be one of the funniest skits ever on TV
This NEVER stops being funny, at all.
RIP Tommy! 😇👼🙌
I wish he sang this a little longer. Definitely one of my favorite songs in church and his voice was perfect for it too!
I end up hitting the replay over and over. I love this song and it takes me back
@@jerondahamblin3120 This song will get anyone through if they let it. I feel you good sister!
He was about to bust out laughing
Hell I downloaded this just so I can listen
@waltermitchell768 word. Definitely one of my favorites!
Tommy was clapping FOR REAL!!! LOL
😂😂😂Yes he was 😂😂😂😂
Nathaniel Williams he got started immediately too he received the Holy Ghost 😂
Yes! 😂 Because Tommy was at "home" in that church scene. You can tell he foreal was a church goer. Lol
Yes he was!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I’d be at church every Sunday just to see this fool. 😂
How in the world did everyone not fall out the chair laughing is beyond me😂😂
I am going to bet this took several takes to get in the can. This is probably the best they were going to get (when even David can barely contain his laughter, just imagine the takes before this one).
They probably had rehearsed it. But it still was funny. It sound like he was laughing a bit while he was singing low. Too funny!
I'm pretty sure they had to do more than just one take! I laugh at David's face every time I see him.
Allen is goofy asf in person
I'm sure they laughed 😄plenty of times before they finally got it together
That cabbage patch into moonwalk combo was filthy 🔥🔥🔥
The fact that this is almost 20 years old and still as funny as the first time I saw is a true testament to the genius of "Martin".
Kind of a shame the way shows like Seinfield and Friends get all this acclaim but Martin doesn't. It's held up better than many shows from the same era of television.
Thanks so much for posting!!!

On the recommendation of a friend from NYC I watched Seinfield once or twice yrs. ago. Did absolutely nothing for me.

He had to hit the rewind.
David Allen Grier is such an underrated comedian lol omg 😂😂😂
Remember him and Martin worked together in Boomerang with Eddie Murphy. #Chemistry
*Martin does not get enough credit, most of his show he brought people he worked with, even from his What's Happening Now Days.*
Damn thats right
You literally just reminded me of this 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Martin was trying so hard not to laugh 😆
One of my FAVORITE episodes!! THAT SCENE IS HILARIOUS!!!
Happy 60th Birthday David Alan Grier!
"Holy ghost !WHISPER! done told me" I cain't 😂😂😂This never gets old..💯
"WHISPA!!!" 😂🤣🤣🤣 I HOLLERED!!😂🤣🤣
David Alan Grier makes comedy look so easy! He is a genius! This is straight out of an old fashioned traveling tent revival meeting.
I fell out when he backed it up, got low with it, and did the holy ghost whisper 🏥🚑

I think all the actors were told to motion like they are clapping but not hard enough to make a sound
The holy ghost part had me in tears ha ha.
This scene is STILL funny, no matter how many times I watch it. Got me crackin up like it's the first time.
Lol
This destroy's me every time I see it, absolutely hilarious!
When he back pedaled then got down low and started whispering the Holy Ghost done told me. 😂😂😂😂
Omg! This is still funny ass hell after all these years! Love that David Alan Grier was holding back that laugh.... 😄😂

David Alan Grier is SO unsung! Always found him effortlessly hilarious😂
Grier is so funny; a money-hungry, woman-lusting preacher. It hits me as funny when he hits that high note: "I I I got a feeling...." Grier has several education degrees under his belt, don't cha know.
That backslide into the crouching whisper is WILD!😂😩🤣

Better question is how many takes it took to get it this smooth
Watching stuff like this have lifted my spirit because i be depressed and suicidal im so thankful for comedy and god i dont know what i would do honestly
