Silence! Silence! #MartinMondays

Posted on by LOL

There’s a lot of moments from Martin that made us cry, but an easy favorite is this particular Dragon Fly Jones sketch. The forward insults (“Had you’d been practicing on your art, you’d know your way in the dark….), the over-the-top stretching and the dice roll (!!!) were lob passes to the alley-oop that was our laughs. Then Dragon Fly lunged at m’man and it was a wrap.

The 2:20 mark is gold when phase one of the the ass whupping commences and Dragon Fly gets down on all four and mocks a dog pissing on a fire hydrant (Why, son?!). Then he dials 9-1-1 on the ATM…. R.I.P. us.

 

The Kennedy Center Thinks They Can Honor Eddie Murphy Better Than Spike TV

Posted on by LOL

Back in 2012 it looked like it could be Comeback Season for The Laugh. We now know that he excited as host of the Oscars and there was his Spike TV special One Night Only that had more Z’s than a polish family reunion. The show had some fringe moments, but Eddie avoided the microphone that night like it was a transvestite woman he wouldn’t pull over for.

Despite Arsenio’s begging, Murphy passed and the night was sort of a wash.

Now, The Kennedy Center is getting in on the act by honoring the comedian with their Mark Twain Prize for American Humor. The event takes place October 18th in D.C. and is sure to be a good time.

Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle, Trevor Noah and Jay Pharoah will all be in the house, in addition to Arsenio.

We just hope the mute act Eddie pulled off at Spike and SNL doesn’t apply here. We get it, your bar is higher than Snoop on a Saturday night. But we’re getting tired of Rock telling everyone how funny you still are. Prove it.
