    Been watching these reruns on SiTV and laughing my ass off. I cannot believe how many popular comedians/actors came from this show. Would love to see them come back for a season or two.

    Here's a few of my favs from Carl "The Tooth" Williams...

    I used to watch this -- very funny stuff. The homeless bum that carried around the pickle jar was disgusting, but hilarious

    I actually couldn't stand Jim Carrey's role on there, though. I found him really annoying

    More often than not, he's still annoying.

    Damon was awesome!

    I remember him in Colors but how about Beverly Hills Cop? Has anybody actually seen his skit that got him fired and banned from SNL?

    A year or so ago a watched an old rerun of the first episode of one of their seasons. In the beginning, Keenan came out to introduce two of their new people. "Fly Girl" Jennifer Lopez and "young comedian" Jamie Foxx. That was crazy. I knew both went through, but just to see them introduced at the same time as nobodies was crazy.

    This is one of the greatest comedy shows ever. I know everybody has their favorites, but I don't think Tommy Davidson gets enough credit for his roles on that show. Some of the most hilarious moments on that show came with his characters :

    Around 0:50, this clip gets. so. wrong. I'm surprised censors let it through back then :

    <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="480" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/yW0G1CxyvWA" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

    Even in a scene where he's with Tupac and Jamie Foxx and really doesn't say much, he's hilarious :

    <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="480" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/LH9TCzmhlt4" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

    "I would suck until your forehead caved the hell in..." This is one of my favorite ones. Rapid-fire hilarity one after the other - don't fast forward. :grin:

    Not Tommy, but so wrong...

    I loved this show growing up, but I bought one of the seasons on DVD a few years ago and barely laughed.

    Tommy Davidson's "Sweet Tooth Jones: Karate Instructor" always had me rollin' when I was young. The way he demonstrates on his assistants is HILARIOUS. When he gets his ass beat in the end and exits the scene with a series of dance moves is too funny for words.
