@@ninja51ify Not a lot of people knew that Damon was on SNL . At the time , he was a featured played...and fired after the 85-86 . Remember , at that time.....they only had one cast member..Danitra Vance . She was the 2nd woman of color on the show , and just like Yvonne Hudson....never got a contract to be on the show full time . That's why it was so easy to discard most of the black actors/actresses during the 80's (except Eddie Murphy)

[@davidtyler6708]

@Dickum N Lickum the V: Emperor Of KZbin. Look, I'm just saying, many of the skits and characters that they are famous for would not be able to get any play due to how "problematic" that they would be considered nowadays. Look at MADtv. They tried to reboot it a few years ago, and it FAILED miserably. The two shows you mentioned are cartoons, not live skit shows. Ratings expectations and salaries are going to be different for them compared to a live skit TV show.

[@davidtyler6708]

@Dickum N Lickum the V: Emperor Of KZbin. Not making up anything. Keenan Wayans gave an interview a couple of years ago saying that he was considering rebooting In Living Color. He said how difficult it was trying to bring his brand of comedy to this current generation, and how it would not go over to well.

[@williamshaw9047]

More crazy that Michaels had him back considering what got DW fired. He had a minor part in a silly skit where Jon Lovitz played a criminal defense lawyer named Mr. Monopoly, who always got his clients off because he had Get Out of Jail Free cards. Damon was supposed to have a bit part as a cop but he played the cop as his Blaine Edwards character from "Men on Film"" and completely derailed the sketch.
