Any skit with Homey D. Clown, Fire Marshall Bill, Calhoun Tibbs or Benita Butrell was a favorite of mine.
The aerobic one, 😂
Wha....?? No Vancomb Lady !!??
@@captainarcher2 that’s mad tv not in living color.
Not enough balls to add HandiMan..I get it..
‘In Living Color’ is one of the funniest shows in the ‘90s. Ah, good memories.
It's on DVD now.
😅❤
Not just in the '90's, of all time.
And Married with children.
And most of their skits wouldn’t fly today due to over sensitive PC baby culture. Shame.
Jim Carrey as Vanilla Ice = HILARIOUS.
😂
better as snow the imposter
His Michael Bolton was a scream ! Jim was absolutely hilarious
@@thecunninlynguist i yam what i yam and that's all that i yam a skeedily de be bop de bop de bo
ABSOLUTELY!!! I I would damn neaar piss myself when that came on!!! Also Tommy Davison as MC Hammer!!!
Whoop whoop whoop whoop Heyo
Saddest part is that this show will never get the love and respect that it rightfully deserves. It beat SNL all to hell and was a hit with a few buddies I grew up with.
Definitely one of the best TV shows of the '90s! The Wayans family humor is truly timeless. Thanks also for bringing us Jim Carrey! ❤
And J Lo (Jennifer Lopez) who was one of the Fly Girls.
And Jamie Foxx.
@@andrewschliewe6392 who?
@@travisbracken1260
Nobody
Yeah the show was packed with talent but thanks for bringing up the only white guy though! How about Jamie Foxx, all of the Wayans family, honestly probably the funniest guy on ILC Tommy Davidson, David Allan Greer as well as JLo, for the most part put or at least helped put Rosie Perez out there! But it’s ok.
Damon Wayans was so freaking hilarious as Homey D. Clown in all several sketches. LOL
These skits are almost 20 years old and they are funnier than what’s on snl today
You mean 30 years old? 90's 00's 10' 20's
My husband and I still quote "wrote a song about it, wanna hear it? here it go" 😁😁
"Homey don't play that" is still my go-to phrase at work.
Comedian Jamie Foxx did a great job playing Wanda Wayne in several good sketches. 😂
Comedy hasn't changed, only some people have.
Wanda's backrub skit with Tommy Davidson was a masterpiece. Hard to believe Wanda would soon be a legit Academy Award winner.
He probably look back at that and went
oh god🤦
The Dating Game was incredible.
@@ericsmith8373I read that skit was the first time the cast had seen Wanda as it was her first appearance. That’s why Jim, Shawn, & David had those reactions, it was authentic 😂
One of many things that would not be on tv in this day but In Living Color was a great sketch comedy show. Keenan Ivory Wayans is a comedic genius
Same as MWC
No doubt. In Living Color would't even get out of the proposal phase now and yet it was so far ahead of its time as to be out of sight of the competitors.
Yeah when Keenan left, I stopped watching. I tried to continue, but to me, it felt like the magic was gone
"Dated by today's standards"? It was hilarious, not the PC crap you get on SNL now. And the actors were all friends, as well. They weren't trying to push some political agenda. It was TRULY funny.
@@darkangel_1978 by 1992 it was a slap in the face
This show is much better than SNL.
"Wrote a song bout it, like to hear it, hear it go." 🤣🤣🤣 Calhoun Tubbs was the top 10 funniest to me "Aaah haaa"🤣🤣🤣
yes lol,
Thank you very much!
The skit he did with Jim Carrey I died I thought I broke a rib a laugh so hard 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
They really slept on Calhoun he was funny asf😂😂
@@kathys1285me too I was on the floor 😂😭😭
I loved this show!! Homey the clown and fire marshal Bill and of course Wanda. So hilarious 😂😂
Fire marshal Bill always cracked me up
Homey D. Clown was the biggest highlight for Damon Wayans during the days of In Living Color. But his catchphrase truly lives on. "Homey don't play that."
My 72 year old white grandma LOVED, LOVED Homie the Clown.....it was one of the rare things that made her laugh hysterically
why the emphasis on her beige skin for
Aww adorable
why add 'white', for? racist are we?
@@Redpillrebel-ks8wewhy do you care so much? You seem like the race baiter here
If only we had shows as brilliant as this today
This generation is too sensitive for something like this , back when we could laugh at each other 😂😅
Every comedian on this show went into movies and other successful ventures. David Allen Grier is one of the most underrated comedians today, however, the Wayans brothers saw his talent and he was one of the funniest on this show right along with Damon, Jim, and Jaime. To be able to hold your own with that bunch says a lot about your talent
Back when comedy is still funny and people didn't get offended easily
Right
Homey D Clown was the creation of the late Paul Mooney. Damon Sr. Played the part to perfection.
I can see that. That’s def Paul’s personality.
I would honestly love to see a one-off reunion special of sorts for In Living Color
Yes Please 🙏 Please 🙏 Please
💯💯❤️
So would I but there isn't a network that would touch that particular brand of humor these days. Even if it was streamed, there would be some groups who were up in arms about it and that's a shame because most of those skits were laugh-till-you-can't-breathe funny.
@slactweak Agreed. However Kids In The Hall falls into the same boat and they came back. I’m sure it’s doable. I’d imagine $ and egos would make it more difficult given the star power involved.
They are currently working on getting everyone on the right schedule to do a reunion episode. Who knows if it will, but I do remember them speaking on it
Jim carrey's vanilla ice impression is hilarious 😂. Also homie d clown was funny too
I grew up on this show. Hilarious and ahead of its time. This was an awesome trip down memory lane!
Comedy gold then and now. Pure genius.
Seriously, when they would parody music videos, they were so damn funny! Jim Carrey mocking Snow's Informer and Kim Wayans mocking Crystal Waters Gypsy Woman was absolutely hilarious.
Everything with Wanda ( Jamie Foxx )
🤮🤮
Handi-man was hilarious. Seeing Jim Carey as the villain flattening braille in books made me laugh.
Yes! Handi-Man was awesome! One of the top 10 sketch characters for sure. Crazy hijinks, cool inventions to fight crime, and endearing with a can-do attitude! 😊
I thought it was hilarious yeah. dude's flying through the air fk'd up looking. the episode i remember seeing was when some fat fk was hogging the handicap bathroom stall, and handi-man ripped the door off ja ja ja. tff.
'In Living Colour' was a 90s incubator for the next 20 years of major league comedic talent. Much like SNL was the same in the 70s and 80s. It was must-watch TV in the early 90s and the Wayans held the angle on 'comedy' at the time. The show will live in TV history as does SCTV, SNL and the Carol Burnett Show.
One of the funniest sketches too me was. "I'm Milli and I'm Vanili" and we're Millivanilli. "Remember it takes two jerks to be Millivanilli! I died laughing at that skit
The wrath of Farrakhan was priceless....
"Men On" was hilarious, because these were "over the top" performances, and not intended to degrade anyone, or throw any sort of hatred at those of that persuasion. THAT is why pretty much everything on that show worked, there was no malice of intent.
,!!!
The late 80s/early 90s were AWESOME for sketch comedy. You had "In Living Color", "Mad TV", "Kids in the Hall", and "SNL" hit a resurgence around that time, too!
What a good time to be alive!
You know something is good when it’s own generation still remembers it so fondly, but there are generations like mine that found this about 10-15 years after it aired, and now look back at it with my own fondness.
This show was one of the greatest shows ever. Comedic genius. Handy Man , Fire Marshall Bill all genius!
Let me tell ya something!
Jim Carey as Vera De Milo and Damon Wayans as Handyman were by far some of the funniest skits ever on tv.
When Jamie Foxx as Wanda was chasing Tommy and pulled his swim trunks down 😂😂😂❤😂❤
*Their parody of the MC Hammer - **_Can't Touch This_** music video was lethal! You could die laughing from watching it!*
This, Handi-Man, and Funky Finger Productions I would’ve put on this list
Try Lock You Up in tthe closett by MJ
"the fact that he was cross dressing makes it dated by today's standards"
No it doesn't, it's still hilarious
😁😅
No it is not
@@lexkanyima2195 I beg to differ, sir.
I absolutely loved In Living Color. Fire Marshall Bill is my favorite character. Also, Jim Carrey's impersonation of Vanilla Ice is so convincing, I couldn't tell whether or not he was the real thing.
So many good ones that are missing from this list too... Vera De Milo, Funky Finger productions, the Snackin Shack diner, Ceephus and Reesie, Lashawn, The Dysfunctional home show
Jaime Fox as Wanda, David Allen Grier and Damon Wayans being critics, Tommy Davidson was hilarious. My kids watched it with me and we laughed so hard every week. This was when Fox would air whatever they could get to compete with the three big networks back then. I loved this show
Born in 1958, SNL was the SHOW. When I first saw ILC, it was c,ear we had a NEW SHOW....the bar was raised to a level in my view that will never be duplicated. Without exception, the greatest talent pool, including the fly girl troope and music to date in the industry. Grateful, much love, thanks for sharing. Great channel, ❤
Omg I loved this show! This was real comedy kids!! Back when we could all laugh at ourselves and nobody got offended; we all got a turn the barrel w ILC!
Y’all totally missed Vera de Milo. That character was hilarious!
I almost forgot where the phrase “Homey don’t play that” came from! Loved this show ❤ freaking hilarious 😂
The Greatest Sketch Comedy Show, ever!! 🔥💯🔥💯🔥
I so miss that show. They stretched all the boundries and I loved them for it!
There is a lot of Jim in that list... but his Vera the steroids lady was hysterical too.
As a kid, I always felt Kel channeled “Fire Marshall Bill” when he did “Repair man” 🤣🤣
Hands down, one of the funniest shows EVER!😊😂
This might be an unpopular opinion but one of my favorite sketches is when Jamie Foxx was Bill Cosby trying to sell condoms
I remember when this show first aired, it became an instant success, it was a great memory for me because it was the one time every night that my entire family would be together for an hour, my mom would make popcorn from a skillet and butter it up and me and my twin brother would have our sleeping bags in the front room with everyone on the couch and love seat and we'd eat popcorn and watch the show together and laugh out loud 😂
The Jheri Curl is like the Mullet. Tommy was SO funny and what a good sport. In a bloopers video I just watched, they confessed that Tommy always got the worst of it.
Greatest tv skit show ever. Legends on this show ❤
Agreed, Mad TV was alright too but no where near as funny as in living color
@@thedude1982 I didn’t find madtv funny at all 😂
I had a crush on Jim Carey when I was a girl in the 90s and use to run straight to the TV as soon as I got home from school so I could watch him on In Living Color. The fact that he had such a successful career after ILC and is the most talked about actor on this list says a lot about him and his comedic talent
Most talked about, I don't know about that. I think Jamie Foxx is just as famous if not more . Hes incredibly talented as well. And the Wayne's bros have made so many classic movies and have been part of great comedy shows .
@@punkeroc I was talking about how he was the most brought up on this list
@@Hippielove90 oh ok , I guess I misinterpreted that. Since you mentioned his career followed by him being the most talked about , I thought you were insinuating that he's the most successful artist out of the whole cast . Mybad.
You can almost miss it because he's always making those goofy faces but Jim Carrey is an objectively handsome man. Shawn was my crush when I was a little girl, though.
The show aired at 8:30 PM most or all of its run. What school kept you in that late? Lots of detention?
Homey has been my favorite television character of all time since I was a young child in the 90s watching ILC. His anger has always been funny af 😂
Carreys Fire Marshall Bill Has Me Cracking Up Laughing 😂😂😂😂😂 "Let Me Show U Something "
Loved this show! Oh, how we miss it.❤ ( Remember Jim as the Buff Chick!!! It was a favorite)
Vera DeMilo.
Once seen, just
can’t be unseen.
@ltmundy1164 Brilliant ! Going to find our old DVD set and rewatch it!
I couldn’t breathe watching this show. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I never realized how many In Living Color sketches could NEVER be played today. I just thought they were funny as Hell! It helps to have a sense of humor. 😂
They poked fun at nearly every offensive trope that we dealt with back then. It really was refreshing to be able to actually LAUGH at what caused us so much angst and anguish. We could use a heaping helping of that now but there are too many sensitive snow flakes for a show like that to EVER be as generally accepted, (and loved), as ILC was back then.
Jim and Damon as the evangelists and also how can you forget Handi-Man????
He would probably be "offended" by it. Lol
Black World was one of my favorites and it was a one-off. The person who included it deserves a promotion. Excellent research.
i miss this show, it needs to come back
I was too young to watch In Living Color at the time. Even if I had, I wouldn't have understood the comedy back then. I had to do some growing up to finally understand why this show was so funny. 😄
I was 7 when I first saw it and immediately that goofy guy “James” Carrey(as he was known then) sold it for me. Damon’s characters stood out too, but yea took until my teenage years to get most of the other skits.
Handy Man has to be in the top 20
Fire Marshall bill was the shit!! He even made a cameo in Liar Liar towards the end. You really gotta look towards the back at the end. The guy next to him can't keep a straight face lol.
About time you guys did something in regards to In Living Color. Was getting tired of the SNL posts and can you guys do Mad TV next. They were funny the first few seasons
But they did shown a couple of it
Yesss Madtv!!
I'm no gatekeeper but having actually watched the show throughout my entire life I think this is more "the most popular sketches" than the funniest sketches ever.
I loved Fire Marshal Bill it was the best.
Let me show you somthen!!!!
It's a crime against humanity that this show isn't available to stream anywhere
Why ?
Calhoun Tubbs my favorite! In Living Color Sketch hands down!
Jim Carrey as ice ice Baby
🎶👀🤣🤣🤣😭😭💀
Hands down, my favorite Sketch Comedy Show!
Half of these were Jim Carey. There were lots of other performers, too. Also, where was the disclaimer for the Jamaican stereotype?
Great list. Jamie Fox's boxing character deserved an honorable mention at least. Same with Damon Wayan's preacher bit with Carrey as his singing counterpart.
You mean "The TOOF"
ACTOR: "I want the TRUTH!"
JAMIE Fox: "YOU can't handle THE TOOF!"
That show was incredible and his time ahead. Loved watching this as a young adult. Still funny AF.
Man!! The nostalgia of it all 😂😂😂😂❤ in living color paved the way for The Chappell Show 🙏🏽😂
Back when people could still take a joke and accept comedy as comedy not pretend that everything is some kind of social commentary. Don't worry though, the narrater swooped in to remind us why we shouldn't laugh. Well played sir.
Man i loved that show and couldn't wait for each episode. So many amazingly talented performers with hilarious writers. Those were the good ol days for me.😊
THE best comedy sketch shows ever. Almost everyone that watched it can quote several fav lines. ❤😂
Living color was the best.
This brought back many happy memories of when we watched this show as a family in the 90s. Thanks for that, WM!
Men on film is definitely the best one😅
Homie don't play that ended up being something my family said often growing up. And we frequently did fire marshal bill all the time. That really was a great show.
Boy, as much as I loved this show, it wouldn't be allowed today!
Got to be one of the best comedy shows EVER!!!
One of the funniest show’s ever.
Mr Uglyman isn't on the list? I don't remember a lot of sketches from In Living Color but that is one I still sing to this day. Mallon Wayans should be given his props for that one.
Fire Marshall Bill was my favorite character.
Wanda Wayne was funny af! I loved Homey the Clown and Fire Marshal Bill too. This is when comedy was still funny and tv shows were good
*Ooh I forgot about Anton Jackson! So funny!
Anton Jackson’s home renovation show “This Old Box” was the best.
Facts.
I was young when this show was on and I loved it. Still funny. I'm a gay woman and I like men on and Wanda Wayne.
Jim Carrey at his best.
Carey doing Vanilla Ice was classic.
David Alan Grier always made me bust my gut 😂
I knew homey was #1 😂😂😂
God I Miss This Show!!! 😂😊
In Living Color was funnier than MadTv 😂
I loved this show back in day! So great ❤
"men on" should be #1 sad no Handi Man skits...and this list was heavy on Jim....and his Snow the Imposter skit was better than Vanilla Ice
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Jim's career may have started with ILC and he did some good stuff on it. Firemarshal Bill is a great character. But he is NOT the funniest part nor the face of ILC. The Wayans are because it was THEIR creation.
