Time to cancel the Eddie Murphy Roast cause that guy can't handle a mild joke from 35 years ago

Yes. Apparently everyone forgot about Pat lol. The first gender-neutral character. Skit after skit making fun of this person.

I was referring to the jokes made towards Eddie after he was caught with one. The best was Pat's reveal of its partner, Chris

I heard David spade made a frick load of “enemies” due to that skit.

As far as this one is concerned, Murphy looks awful. Racist? How?


Did Spade write the skits? I'm assuming he was just the one to deliver them.

Vampire in Brookly was terrible, so, what gives? Actors have to know when they do terrible movies.

Of course, because any time a white person says anything a black doesn't like the first response is always.

"IT"S RACIST"

So if a comedian makes fun of another comedian who happens to be black it’s racist?


I would have thought the guy who brought us “Delirious” would be a little thicker skinned.

It’s become readily apparent celebrities can always dish it but can never take it

go watch Eddie's special when he's in red leather outfit. He keeps talking about "faggots" for quite awhile. If this is the game he wants to play then turn the tables on that idiot.

WHY YOU GOTTA BRING UP OLD shite ?? lmao

Murphy’s sensitive self Streisand effected that joke from the beginning with his reaction. It’s not THAT funny. It would’ve been forgotten but Eddie made it infamous

And it was kind of, I thought — I felt it was racist.

on the face of it, this racism accusation doesnt pass even the most basic logic test. maybe (HUGE maybe) if Spade had just come out of the blue and attacked Eddie Murphy's career without context there MIGHT be some sort of racist angle (i mean not really, but at least by modern standards). but this skit is like six minutes of making fun of white people almost exclusively with a random one liner about Murphy thrown in there.

Shall we revisit Delirious and Raw to see Mr. Murphy’s take on Italians and homosexuals?


And it was some of the funniest stuff ever. Really disappointed to hear Eddie pull the race card. How can you find anything racist in Spade’s joke.

That's very weak for Eddie to be offended over. He's a comedian, he's made jokes and talked shite about plenty of people over the years. If you dish it, you gotta be able to take it as well.

Eddie must've not heard Spade shitting on 30 other white people before he even got to the black fella.
