Re: What is your favorite Story or Joke as told by Richard Pryor

<t>Reg_Man_98,<br/> <br/> Way too many to choose from. But here's some that put me on the floor:<br/> <br/> "The motor fell out of the car, right.

The Partridge Family

<t>I was just watching an old re-run of THE PARTIDGE FAMILY and, HOLY FUCK, Richard guest starred on the show with Lou Gossett jr. (with a full head of hair I might add).<br/> <br/> In the episode, Richard and Lou own a "soul" club and borrow money from a loan shark to keep the club afloat.<br/> The...

Re: Live in Concert-England

<t>Jennifer,<br/> <br/> In Leonard Maltin's book, there is a movie listed RICHARD PRYOR IS BACK LIVE IN CONCERT (1979). It says it is the same material from LIVE IN CONCERT. I also saw BACK LIVE IN CONCERT mentioned in one or two biographies of Richard (not his autobiography). Did these "outlaw" pro...

Re: Live in Concert-England

reelblack,

The Lily Tomlin Special (and other shit on my mind)

<t>I just finished watching one of the Lily Tomlin Specials from 1973. Richard was in it and co-wrote the show. <br/> <br/> It seems to me that variety/skit shows back then started to go to greater lengths to be as realistic as possible. This is probably almost as important as the comedy itself. Wit...

George Carlin

<t>Do Richard and George Carlin know each other very well? I know they were both in the movie CAR WASH, but did they REALLY know each other?<br/> <br/> I think his comedy has changed over the years since the '70s. He went from a goofy, insightful comic to a very bitter man. He went from "Who got the...

Re: John Belushi and a Bass

Visitor,

I noticed the same thing. Maybe it's a skit that was never used and has been lost ever since. Any other thoughts...Rich...Jenn?

Re: Richard Pryor 2-hour documentary on tonight!!!

smjmcomic,

The doc aired on my local cable on STAR. I thought it was a very good documentary on the comic legend. It was very informative and had alot of pictures and footage of Rich I had never seen before.
