Living Color - Season 1
The In Living Color TV series' complete first season was undoubtedly ready for prime time, unlike the original Saturday Night Live cast. However, the question remained whether prime time was ready for In Living Color. This subversively funny 1990 sketch-comedy series boldly ventured where SNL feared to tread, particularly in matters of race relations and cultural stereotypes.
Series creator Keenen Ivory Wayans, fresh off his hilarious blaxploitation spoof I'm Gonna Git Ya Sucka, was hot. But In Living Color was even hotter. According to a "Looking Back" segment included in this three-disc set, it took him a year to sell the pilot. He fronted a young, gifted, and mostly black cast, including David Alan Grier, Tommy Davidson, Damon Wayans, Kim Wayans, and T'Keyah "Crystal" Keyman. "James" Carrey and Kelly Coffield were the white Garret Morrises.
Like the first season of SNL, In Living Color played provocateur, with such politically incorrect sketches as "Homeboy Shopping Network," "This Old Box," and "Ted Turner's Very Colorized Classics." Other sketches, such as "Riding Miss Daisy," have a stick-it-to-the-man brazenness. Don King, Mike Tyson, Milli Vanilli, and Arsenio Hall were easy targets, but In Living Color did not spare such icons as Richard Pryor. There is the inevitable Oprah roasting, but also a brilliant Star Trek spoof, "The Wrath of Farrakhan."
Among the first season's breakout characters are Damon Wayans and David Alan Grier's finger-snapping "Men on Film," and Damon's Homey D. Clown. Carrey struts his stuff as "female" bodybuilder Vera DeMilo, while Coffey is a scream as Samantha Kinison and Andrea Dice Clay. While much of the topical humor has dated, sketches such as "Michael Jackson Potato Head" are timeless.
The fun of revisiting this groundbreaking series is watching these fearless and talented performers go for broke and make the most of their unlikely opportunity. The complete first season of In Living Color is a testament to the show's bold, unapologetic, and often hilarious examination of race, culture, and the human experience.
