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 are 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. 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. --Donald Liebenson

Customer Reviews of In Living Color - Season 1
The Real Kings of Comedy are Back! It has been 14 long years, but it has finally returned. The first season of In Living Color is packed with 13 episodes of pure comedy. Featuring funny comics such as Kenan Ivory Wayans, Damon Wayans, Tommy Davidson, Jim Carrey, and many more. You'll not only see hilarious sketches based on characters like Homey the Clown, The Brother's Brothers, Vera DeMilo, and the Homeboy Shopping Network, you'll hear some of the best beats of that time played by DJ SW1 and danced to by the beautiful Fly Girls. This DVD set not only deserves 5 stars, but two snaps in a circle.
The series that made The Wayans Brothers and Jim Carrey!
Jim Carrey, Keenan Ivory Wayans, Damon Wayan, Shawn Wayans, Marlon Wayans, David Alan Grier, and Jamie Foxx. These are some of the names who have lived In Living Color. This DVD is a perfect centerpiece for people who wish to reminisce of the days of Homey the Clown and Men on Film. And for those who never saw it, check it out. The commentaries are good, the comedy is in its original form without commercials (although the breaks with SW1 and the Fly Girls are in tact). But who can complain about watching Fly Girls sans J-Lo. The show was meant to be an over the top version of SNL, while showcasing the brightest stars in stand-up comedy, and with a cast like this (including a cameo by Chris Rock in Season 5) In Living Color is as fresh now, as it was when it premiered. If Fox is listening, bring the rest out very soon.

NOT AS FUNNY AS I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE<

I bought this dvd set being a fan of the show when it was on tv years ago.I was really looking forward to watching this set as soon as I recieved it, and was very dissapointed,it was not very funny at all! a few sketches were kinda funny but otherwise I was not very happy with this set at all. I would reccomend saving your money and get season 2 or wait for a season 3 when the show was alot funnier!
