This was a funny show with moments of brillance. I thought the skits were so funny and I am not easily amused.
Hands down...this show JTS after the Wayans no longer had anything to do with it. The addition of Alexandra Wenworth, Anne-Marie whats-her-name (Raj's wife from What's Happening Now) the heavy guy, and a couple of others just really turned me off. The show stunk up the place after that.
If you loved this show, you're probably amused by a big turd.
This shitpile was nothing but adolescent humor.

Whenever I see this show, I always wonder whatever happened to fly girl Carla Garrido. She was the pretty Hispanic dancer added halfway through Season 2 when the show was at its creative peak, only to be ostensibly replaced by JLo before the start of Season 3. It’s too bad she left so soon after joining what was then the hottest show on TV. It would be interesting to know where she is now and what she is doing.
Not a fan of this show. The comedy was usally too raunchy/nasty or inappropriate. Glad its off of the air.
How to ruin the show "In Living Color" 3 easy steps: 1: Remove the Wayans 2: Change theme to remixed version of original theme 3: Hire a bunch of unfunny deadbeats and put them in unfunny skits
This show was FREAKIN' HILARIOUS back in the day. And you're all right... If it jumped, it was the "exit... stage left" of all the Wayans'. But specifically, I think it was Damon's departure that hurt the most.
But isn't that the fate of all sketch comedy shows? Eventually, their best performers are gonna get too big to be on a sketch comedy show. Same thing happened to SNL, losing Sandler, Ferrell, etc.

The show definitely jumped the shark when the "real" Wayans (Damon, Keenen, Kim) left. The reruns jumped mainly due to the dramatic increase in political correctness since the show's debut and the reruns' move to BET. BET now censors certain words (mainly the one meaning female dog) which could be considered offensive. For instance, the "Men On Vacation" sketch had the last word of the phrase "Holland, land of dykes" partially muted.

Jumped when Keenan Ivory Wayans left. The show still had it's moments, but the skits started to get less and less clever. And I was never a fan of Jim Carrey. Out of all the people on that show, I never would've expected him to be the one to make it really big. His characters were all one-note and seemed to be geared more towards small children than teenagers and adults.
Show jumped when the Wayans left, no doubt about it!!! The skits that they did were so hilarious, Men on Film, Brother's Brothers, Homey the Clown, Benita Butrell. When they left, the skits just stunk!!!
In Living Color- where to begin? The Wayans ruled this show- all 37 of them. Keenan, Damon (Bulletproof wasn't THAT bad), Kim, Shawn, Marlon, Michael, Tito and the rest- they were all hilarious. (When they left, it just wasn't the same.) Jim Carrey was brilliant (I know all of you Carrey haters were laughing at his scenes; this homey don't play that). David Alan Grier had his best years here (and as Rev. Love on Martin). Tommy Davidson delivered laughs on many occasions. Kim Coles and T'Keyah were fine ladies that kept me cracking up as well, and Jamie was hilarious as Wanda.
How can one show give us so much? Fire Marshall Bill. The Jamaican family (Hey Mon!). Homie the Clown. The Bros. Brothers. Blaine Edwards and Anton Meriweather, the Men on Film. Wanda, Vera, the Dirty Dozens, and Handi-Man.
Not to mention Jennifer Lopez, Rosie Perez, and a little known dancer by the name of Carrie Ann Inaba. This show and Martin might be enough to crown FOX as funniest network of the 90's (no disrespect to NBC). Peace!

I love and loved this show. The Wayan brothers were masters. I felt and still feel that ILC helped so many young actors in their careers regardless of race. J Low complains about how much she was mistreated as a FlyGirl... Well She is doing ok now aint she? Guess ILC did some of that for her. This show broke the bounderies that Saturday Night Live wouldn't. David Alan Griers is a genious. In summary, this program did so much for so many upcoming actors. All the while making us laugh. There is no person on this posting that can say they have never laughed their ass off while watching In Living Color.
