krawhitham Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I think the guy in the crowd was funnier than Richardslike that was a challenge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaeljjt Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Andrew Dice Clay Howard Stern And yet with these 4 mentioned....everyone knows its part of the act. I think the difference was, Michael Richards wasn't trying to be funny...It sort of looked like he went off the deep end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AstroEric Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Anybody see the extremely awkward apology on Letterman? http://www.defamer.com/hollywood/michael-r...ixes-216375.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rig99 Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I don't see what the big deal is. He didn't look like he was trying to be hateful. To me it looked like he was trying to be funny with a racist character like so many other comedians do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleMo Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I thought about that and thought that was a possibility, but then he kept going and going. Even the crowd thought that could be the case, as you can tell by the continued laughter but then he just would not stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HardcoreLegend Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 He said in his apology that he was trying to be funny, tried to reel it back in but couldn't do it. Walked off, then came back out and apologized to whoever was left. Who knows, what a nutjob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronicMan Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 The N word is bad enough, but what is really disgusting about it is the way he talks about lynching. No matter how he twisted it, a joke about lynching due to racism is definitely not funny at all. Michael Richards' attempt to save his career on Letterman Edit: Damn CBS! removed the link.

kinghernandez Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 As far as I'm concerned, the "N" word means nothing now. That's true, if Chris Rock says the same thing it's a good bit. But it was still stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jogar84 Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Wow, after hearing it again, I didn't realize Richards said those words in anger. And who is he trying to fool by saying he's not a racist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
