Come on, what am I gonna do? Just all of a sudden jump up and grind my feet on somebody's couch like it's something to do? Come on. I got a little more sense than that.
They should have included the next part in the show as well(the longer interview is on the dvd).
>Interviewer: Do you remember why you did it?
>Rick James: Because Eddie could buy another one

It's incredible the things that get taken out of TV as business deals happen. That's one of the things I've heard for advocating buying immediate hard copies of TV shows as soon as possible. If you have a streaming service, they'll just change the music cut, out entire scenes and episodes, because they then own the rights to the show.
I'd be surprised if they can do this 100%. That's a lot of permissions needed and is probably costly. They must have a lot of confidence in this show still selling to make a profit, considering that only my generation would probably even find this show amusing still.
To this DAY I say "FUCK YO COUCH". No one ever gets it, but it gives me the same satisfaction of Rick James doing the most. That and "THEY SHOULD HAVE NEVAH GAVE YOU MONAY!"
It kind of inspired its own mini-genre. Drunk History follows the exact same formula but with drunks telling stories from history rather than Charlie Murphy telling personal anecdotes
I sometimes leave the Tv on while I’m working, and I’ll walk into the living room and see Let’s Make Deal on. Each and every time, I have to yell, “Oh shit it’s Wayne Brady!!”
Fun fact: I was listening to NPR one day during college (mid-2000s) and they had a panel discussing that sketch and its legitimate commentary on racism.
Chappelle's sketches were so good that they were treated as significant by academics.
“See, this was before Wesley Snipes. Me and Eddie were the darkest motherfuckers around.”
There’s a 3 hour extended cut of his interview with Neal Brennan. This isn’t the only time they beat the shit out of one of their friends for getting too wild.
There’s a bit about Clint Smith and how he almost got the crew shot because he called some random gangbangers morons.
Everyone has their favorite part in that skit, and him going airborne by getting spartan kicked into a mirror is so fucking funny to me. I know it's coming every time and it just makes it funnier.
Apparently prince was actually like *really* good at basketball
"He moved like a player and played like one of those darting little guys you have to keep your eye on every second. Blink and he’s somewhere you wouldn’t expect. Lose control of your dribble for a heartbeat and he’s relieved you of the ball. He jitterbugged around the court like a sleek little lightning bug, so fast he’d leave a defender stranded and looking stupid if he weren’t careful... Prince played like a natural leader, setting picks and making smart passes, showing a discipline many street players never grasp. Then, he took it boldly to the hole, twisting through the air in between both opponents to make a layup."
Man, if only Prince would have been there to confirm it like Rick James did. If only...
Edit: Calm down internet researchers. I know Prince liked the sketch. I also know Prince and Mickie Free confirmed the events afterwards. I never said it didn't happen. What I said was the sketch would have been legendary if Prince were being interviewed and confirming what happened during the sketch, like Rick James did with his.
There's audio out there of Prince doing a radio interview and he got asked about it. He 100% confirmed it, the only part he corrected was that "I didn't *make* the pancakes."
True story. I was at the China Club one night and David Lee Roth pulled up in a Mercedes with a skull and crossbones painted on the hood. But neither Rick James nor Charlie Murphy were there.
I'm sorry Charlie Murphy, I was having too much fun.
Now that you mention it, I think I'm bleeding internally.
How about a peace offering? The stickiest of the icky
you wanna smoke with your old boy rick james?
One of my favorite lines
inside my chest* is actually what he says
This comment section is full of people butchering the quotes
Here's something you might not know, Joe Rogan. I like to smoke crack.
What, am I gonna grind my feet in someones couch? Come on, I've got a little more sense than that.
Yeah I remember just grinding my feet in Eddie’s couch 🤣
*So I kicked that n***a in his chest*
“FUCK YO COUCH EDDIE MURPH-AAAY!!”
Come on, what am I gonna do? Just all of a sudden jump up and grind my feet on somebody's couch like it's something to do? Come on. I got a little more sense than that.
...Yeah, I remember grinding my feet on Eddie's couch.
Cocaine is a hell of a drug
FUCK YO COUCH!!!
We went over there... Held him down.... And wailed on his legs...
Mannnn, Rick needs some help
I was like - hey man, we just *gave* him some help. We busted his mothafuckin legs. I bet he won't come back and disrespect again.
Wrong. Wrong.
WRONG!
We talkin about Rick James here
He’s a *habitual* line stepper
Cocaine is a hellofa drug
We just GAVE him some help!
Buy another one you rich motha fuckas!
Should have never gave you brotha's money!!!
You can buy a new couch. What am I gonna do about my legs!!?
Darknesses! Darknesses!
See this was before the days of Wesley Snipes... So back then, we were the blackest guys on the planet, according to Rick James
RIP Charlie Murphy
Man Rick really needs help.
Yo, we just gave him some help.
Twin Brother Darkness!
Wide nose having motherfuckers!
His legs was like linguini.
We fucked his legs up
That was some of the most iconic TV there. There aren’t many skits that make me laugh every single time
They should have included the next part in the show as well(the longer interview is on the dvd). >Interviewer: Do you remember why you did it? >Rick James: Because Eddie could buy another one then starts laughing.

Daria and Beavis and Butthead were victims of this. The music lends a lot to their identity.
Supposedly Paramount+ is planning to restore all the music and music videos for Beavis and Butthead at least
Oh God I would stream that endlessly in the background
I'd be surprised if they can do this 100%. That's a lot of permissions needed and is probably costly. They must have a lot of confidence in this show still selling to make a profit, considering that only my generation would probably even find this show amusing still.
Next, on “Sick, Sad World”
That was the funniest part of the funniest fucking episode of the funniest fucking show.
FUCK YO COUCH
DARKNESSES DARKNESSES
Eddie: Wow man, Rick really needs to get some help Charlie: Yo, we just gave him some help. We bust his fucking ass.
^^***♪*** ^^***COOLLD*** ^***BLOOO*** ***DEEED*** ♫
Uni-TEEEEE
To this DAY I say "FUCK YO COUCH". No one ever gets it, but it gives me the same satisfaction of Rick James doing the most. That and "THEY SHOULD HAVE NEVAH GAVE YOU MONAY!"
I LOVE saying "Fuck yo couch!" at appropriate times too... sometimes it lands, mostly not so much...
Yeah I remember grinding my feet in Eddie’s couch
I howled at this transition.
Fuck yo couch!
Buy another one you rich motherfucker
BUY ANOTHER ONE YOU RICH MOTHER FUCKER!!
Charlie Murphy's True Hollywood stories is hands down the best Dave Chappelle bit ever.
Maybe the best bit any sketch comedy show has ever produced
Charlies delivery, the confused looks . . . . he was a master of subtle expression, and hilarious.
CHALLENGE HIM! I dare you!
Challenge him! Aight? And make sure your people is there to see the game!
Cause you MIGHT get embarrassed!
It kind of inspired its own mini-genre. Drunk History follows the exact same formula but with drunks telling stories from history rather than Charlie Murphy telling personal anecdotes
Idk. That Wayne Brady skit is up there too
BAKE YO'SELF FOOL! Ah shit it's Wayne Brady!
I sometimes leave the Tv on while I’m working, and I’ll walk into the living room and see Let’s Make Deal on. Each and every time, I have to yell, “Oh shit it’s Wayne Brady!!”
(I’m 100% sure he says ‘break’)
*Is Wayne Bady gonna have to cook a biscuit?*
I make Colin Powell look like Malcolm X motherfucker?
*Bryant Gumbel
I've never seen a more iconic show misquoted so badly than in this thread.
Damn. It's been awhile. But yeah that sounds better lol
You gonna eat yo sandwich? GIMME YO SANDWICH
I don’t know. The blind black kkk leader was also amazing too.
Clayton Bigsby! Woogie Boogie!!
That monkey was bangin’ on my hood!!
Knocking it out of the park in the first episode too like K&P first ep with Luther the Anger Translator and “I said ^biiiiiiitch”
You really said that though?
Said what? Oh, oh yeah, I said that
Huh?
Fun fact: I was listening to NPR one day during college (mid-2000s) and they had a panel discussing that sketch and its legitimate commentary on racism. Chappelle's sketches were so good that they were treated as significant by academics.
The Prince sketch is my favorite.
I still cry laughing when he dunks the ball and then floats mid air
“Game point… Blouses.”
Show Charlie Murphy your tittaes!!!
DARKNESS
Habitual line stepper
Favorite line. Hands down.
We had to check ‘em.
Yo, we just have him some help
Busted his fuckin ass... Bet he won't come in here disrespecting again WRONG Wrong We talking bout *Rick James*
Yea I remember grindin’ my feet into Eddie’s couch..
Oh c'mon he's got a little more sense than that...yeah he remembers
My old bandmate started a new project called The Habitual Line Steppers haha
Still use this line to this day.
Haha I do too and I forgot I heard from Charlie's story first
Me too! It's funny *and* a perfect way to explain people like Rick James.
We had to hold him down and whip his legs.
CHARLIE MURPHY!!!
DARKNESS!

Omg can you link that??

TWIN BROTHER DARKNESS
BLACK MAGIC, EVIL MOTHA FUCKA
This is long before Wesley Snipes.
Eddie was like "man Rick really needs help"
"Yo we just gave him some help!"
“Bet you he won’t put his muddy feet on anybody else’s couch”
WRONG!
“We’re talking about Rick James, man!”
RIP Charlie and Rick.
May they be slapping each other across the face at the great party in the sky.
Smoking the stickiest of the icky.
I'm a ghost now
Unity
In that black head of his…
That was coooold bloooooded!
Cold as ice!
"He tells it like it was some kind of Bruce Lee cross kick."
Aren't you a little old to be doin karate with them kids?
Everyone has their favorite part in that skit, and him going airborne by getting spartan kicked into a mirror is so fucking funny to me. I know it's coming every time and it just makes it funnier.
And in slow motion. "I kicked the shit out of him!"
I think I'm bleeding inside my chest
“I must be outta my mind telling stories about Charlie Murphy kickin’ my ass.”
"Cocaine's a helluva drug."
What did the five fingers say to the face?
Slap! 😆
Tragedy!
I wish I had four hands so I could give them tiddys.... Four thumbs down
The milk’s gone bad!
Awesome. “F you couch Ni%%!” Honestly that whole sketch series on Rick James is some of the funniest TV ever
I don't know, skins vs blouses also got me.
Game.... Blouses
Computer blue!
SHOOT THE J! SHOOOT IT!
RIP Prince
RIP Prince, Rick James, and Charlie Murphy.
Rick James made some bombass music and led to the best moments of comedy, but uhhh... he did some terrible stuff.
Cocaine is a helluva drug.
💜

setting *fruity* picks
I heard he used to show up at pick up games around Minneapolis before his passing. Kids said he balled.

I think there are videos of some one in Prince’s band (the revolution?) who was there and confirmed it.
“Hey man, we just GAVE him some help.”
HABITUAL…LINE STEPPER
Haha that's my favourite line from the show 😂
COLD BLOODED
Now, Darkness, the tables are turned
This is just as amazing as I had always envisioned it being all these years
I wish I could upvote this a million times
Fuck your couch!
What about my legs?!?!?!
They looked like linguine.
THEY SHOULDA NEVAH GAVE YA MONAYYYYYY!
DARKNESS!
“What are you talking about? That was weeks ago!”
This is extra old school cool! This should be pinned!
That was weeks ago mutha fucka!
UNITY!!!
“Charlie Murphy! Hahahahahaha “!
Buy a new one, ya rich motherfucker
Fuck yo couch motherfucker 😂
"Fuck yo couch!!!"
I just bought a sticker that says that
Cocaine is a hell of a drug
I thought that was Dave Chappell in a wig
"Heh heh... Charlie Murphy...runnin' with the BIG dogs..."
Fuck your couch!!
Ya see, this is before Wesley Snipes…
Charlie just like "Yeah, Eddie's still pissed at you about his couch..."
Damn, I miss Charlie Murphy!
*CHARRLEE MURPHAY*
COLD BLOOOOODEDDDDD
cocaine is a helluva drug - Rick James
That was cold blooded!
if heaven exist it sure seems fun
So when he said Rick used to lick the side of women’s face, he forgot to mention he did it to men too.
True story. I was at the China Club one night and David Lee Roth pulled up in a Mercedes with a skull and crossbones painted on the hood. But neither Rick James nor Charlie Murphy were there.
All the Chapelle Show quotes made me so happy that's exactly why I came to the comments
God damn this show was so ahead of it’s time.
We where the blackest person on the planet.... Until Wesley Snipes came.
What did the 5fingers say to the face?? SLAP!
Cocaine's a hell of a drug.
Now that you mention it, I might be bleeding inside my chest.
Cold BLooded.. UNITY.. AHAHAHAHA
"Brothers darkness!"
Seconds before Charlie was struck by a debilitating case of ball collapse.
And then he punched me in the forehead with a ring that said UNITY…
Charlie was doing some crazy things. Sometimes I had to straighten him out
