His Larry Wilmore show was so good and smart, I was so disappointed when it was cancelled.

[@janelliot5643]

I was too--it Was the best!!

[@larrymarshall8900]

He's funnier than Trevor Noah no disrespect but The Nightly Show is funnier then The Daily Show with Trevor Noah just my opinion.

[@gratefulone6669]

I wish those that interview him would bring up at least some of his past (producing/writing) resume. He's been around for so many years and has lended his name to many projects. (sorry, I happen to be a reader and have seen his name on numerous credits)

[@lisab9541]

Larry, so sorry for your loss. I'm looking forward to the Jerry and Marge Go Large movie.

[@utter123456789]

Mr. Brown!

[@MiLordRoku]

Ah. Oh, right! OK. First test. I will not call you that.

[@lisab9541]

I didn't know about his affiliation with Bernie Mac Show. That man was taken from us all too soon.

[@MelissaM-lo5hi]

The Bernie Mac days. Good stuff. Was cut off to fast in my opinion.

Love him!

[@MisterRickSinister]

WILMORE IS MY HERO ... I LOVE YOUR PODCAST LARRY

[@charlottestewart5802]

I adore Larry Wilmore, despite his very disrespectful comment to President Obama, and can't wait to enjoy him in this! Loving Annette Benning is a bonus!!

[@Cletus_the_Elder]

I hope Comedy Central has the good sense to have Larry Wilmore come back to host the Daily Show, now that the very unfunny Trevor Noah is moving on.

[@Travis-4U]

Daily show guy

[@OddOneOut665]

Imagine if Jimmy did the Best Friends Challenge with Larry instead...

[@TheBasher-_-]

Larry Wilmore was to intelligent of a black man. He didnt fit Hollywood's stereotype

[@redplanet76]

“Well it’s my name, it’s not a test.”

[@mitcharett2586]

Yeah, his Nightly show was great, with him and Robin Thede, the beautiful, hilarious host of The Black Lady Sketch Show on HBO. Lots of talent on the old Nightly Show. What a loss.☹️

[@janelliot5643]

I remember his political talk show. It was just too good to last

[@janaenae1338]

👼👎

[@dragonfly4484]

Such a talented man

[@hanssolos3699]

i won a pee body award at a gay bar.

[@MPHswayze]

Howie Mandel is looking tan!

[@FUB666]

Wow he didn’t look like a thumb when he was younger.
