Why did y’all cheat us and not make this interview a hour long lol

[@Makumbi]

I am shocked at the length of this thing. So short I bet they used the whole thing in the show this time.

[@ryeezy1642]

"WOOOOOOOOO... *Definitely means you do powder* " 😂 😂 😂

[@Illstrator2]

He shouldve straight up guest cohosted the whole show. I remember when he was on thier mtv2 show..before they wore hats and gold.

[@ejfarino]

This was way too short.

[@x97s]

He is getting older

[@ryeezy1642]

The entire last bit of them all imitating white boy wasted had me HOLLERRRING 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@willsintheair]

We don't talk about the Wayans family enough. In Living Color unapologetically brought black culture right into our living rooms. It opened my eyes to a lot of the nuance of black comedy when I was really young. That show is a crash course for the culture. Comedy, dance, hiphop, social commentary...it had everything.

[@CamazonPrime]

Exactly right!!! So many icons came out of that show and they deserve their flowers 💐

[@therealmegabros]

Bingo

[@Weareroses]

The Wayans family will forever be in the film industry, everyone is so talented.

[@geocyo8835]

I will never forget the last time he was on with them and HE WOULD NOT drink after Taye Diggs from the bottle of rum from the previous episode! That shit was so funny! Legendary!

[@jeremiahbrown953]

I LITERALLY JUST WATCHED THAT AND ITS THE REASON I SEARCHED IF THEY DID A NEW ONE 😆😆. DOG THAT’S CRAZY

[@williamosceola5056]

Why does this extended interview have to be so short??

[@SilverImmortal3633]

You know they're right about them outey bellybuttons

[@DaRealKINGKLIPS]

These guys go back. Can't wait for the stand up . The last one on Netflix was hilarious

[@haysoos7945]

Desus and Mero, best interviewers in the game right now. No questions

I laughed at this one hard AF probably because I remembered when he was on the boys other show, the vibes was real

[@Juicelee777ssj]

I like how this wasn't even really an interview It was just them catching up.

[@maryoaks3228]

This interview went “white boy wasted”. 😂😂😂

[@Shin-Blade]

Requiem For A Dream was insane! Marlon was definitely acting in that picture!

Desus said "what are you a penny loafer"🤣🤣🤣

[@jaygee2289]

Kinda felt low-key shade from Marlon being like "you're still in a Bodega" but I think he acknowledged at the end that its just the brand and how we do. BodegaHive all day. #nofucksgiven #givemebodegaorgivemedeath

[@DrSlipperyFist]

One of the best interviews of all time

[@madgatter1047]

I first watched requiem for a dream after seeing Marlon Wayans on the DVD cover at blockbuster. "Fuck yeah Marlon Wayans is funny as hell, this is gonna be a good time." I was not prepared at all for the type of movie that Requiem actually was.

[@ThaFutureLegend]

What did you think of it after you watched it?

[@marvdatboi]

The Brand is iconic

[@BlackWave54]

Only 8 min ... SMH

[@marctouss1862]

his stand up sucks.. soorry.. but he is dope as a dramatic actor..

[@saturncrush]

I have been waiting for ever for Marlon to do a serious role since he did the Requiem film. He has so much untapped talent in this space beyond comedy.

[@destinyp7767]

gotta keep an eye out for the outie belly buttons

[@jacobthompson1682]

Yerrr

[@boonz47]

🤣🤣🤣 if a grown man is still walking around with a outtie bellybutton he's been walking around with a hernia his whole life 🤦🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️

[@edytking95]

I thought Marlon was just saying “you know what it is”. I had to see the poster to realize “You Know What it is” was the title

Man. I hate Marlon Wayans in comedies... (same sentence) I LOVE Marlon Wayans in dramas...."Marlon Wayans: Real Nigga Fake Gold"

[@luisarevalo5417]

Yuuuuuurrrrrrrrrr

[@jasond721]

Movie Script Idea... * Marlon Movie w/ Wayans siblings supporting cast Title: A Hole Summary: Marlon lives his life being an asshole, not listening to anyone. >> An ends up losing his job & girlfriend ( Taraji ) who wants marriage, becuz of it. >> He comes to the realization that he must humble himself and be kind & considerate to the people around him in order to get it all back. * Staring... Marlon: asshole Taraji: Marlon's gf * Guest staring... Damon > homeless Antwan Keenan > mailman Kim > neighborhood gossiper Shawn > Local Club DJ Damon Jr > Marlon's Boss (( They will appear in several scenes each )) ~ Marlon holla @ me for a cut & cameo
