[stingfan74]

[tuckertwo]

[tejaswoman]

"Wookin' Pa Nub" really IS "eternally his" for me ... I think of it absolutely every time that "Lookin' for Love" crosses my path in any way, shape, or form.

[Anfmethodjor]

Is the character supposed to be mentally challenged or a non-English speaker?

[altratronic]

@Anfmethodjor Dude, it's Buckwheat.

[clivusx2]

@Anfmethodjor your a dope!

[tejaswoman]

@Anfmethodjor If you're unfamiliar with the '30s movie character Eddie's spoofing, search YouTube for "Buckwheat" and click on results that show pieces of film footage (black-and-white) of little children. You could also go to Wikipedia and look up "Little Rascals."

[Anfmethodjor]

@tejaswoman THX, I'm not American, so I won't pick up on every cultural reference,

[Sadden4o]

Eddy Murphy has been and always be painfully unfunny.

[ralphyization]

I absolutely LOVED Eddie Murphy on SNL! H e was the BEST, in my opinion... just mine, of course.. hehe ...

[zodiak650]

What about my legs Eddie Murphy?!?!?!? You can always buy another couch!

[Truthiness231]

Ah, back when SNL was the greatest show on TV and not just another crappy sketch show...

[railcar123]

This along with "The 5th Beatle", "Jazz Riffs" and "Black Talk" are great moments in American comedy.

[lob287]

Eddie Murphy is the best SNl alum

[lester5192]

many people do not realize that the original buckwheat actor almost became vice president for carter.

[dawonplace]

I haven't seen this in years too!! Hilarious. I used to always watch these Eddie Murphy SNL Tapes in my dorm room.  Funniest stuff I have seen in my life. %

[tryandlisten]

Damn I posted all this old stuff years ago and the pricks closed my account.

[obatron1]

Hahaha....I was at my lady's house and this song came on and it finally hit me like a slap to the face. Hahaha...."?????" = Betty Davis Eyes....ey but what up with "Una Panuna Bancaaaaaa hiiiiiyyy" Hahaha.

[chretiendutroyes]

@obatron1

Can you give the line from Betty Davis Eyes that he's singing? I'm not seeing it yet and my dad once said he was doing a Bob Dylan song.

[XLFcasper]

@chretiendutroyes The line he's singing is

"She got Greta Garbo standoff sighs,

She's got Bette Davis eyes."

[ralphyization]

@XLFcasper I LOVE Buckwheat's version, though!! Eddie Murphy was the best!! How about Gumby? haha!! My Fav!

[ralphyization]

@chretiendutroyes He was "messing around"! He was screwing up the lyrics to Betty Davis eyes...hahahah

[rockdontrun]

Dang, wish it had Una Panuna Banca.

[CainmosniMirrored]

Only Murray and Belushi were any good, Chevy is too ridiculous.

[Anaksunamen999]

[TheJoeBraxton92]

[killiang1695]

A list of my favorites: Buckwheat, Mr.Robinson's Neighborhood, James Brown's Celebrity Hot Tub.

[backwardsrecord]

She's got Gretta Garbo, standoff sighs, she's got, Bette Davis Eyes

That's the song he's singing at 0:32

[PhydeWice]

0:32 sounds like Bob Dylan to me.

[crysta2k2]

Damn, now I can't get "Una Pahnoona Banka ahhh aaaaaa...."out of my head! Great, now I'm going to be singing it all damn day; that & "wookin pa nub"

Damn it Eddie, you shouldn't be so frigging hilarious. Buckwheat's greatest hits, LOL - genius.

[kingrob29]

???? Is Betty Davis eyes unless im mistaken.

[jrenae75]

How sad am I to know the ???? is Bette Davis Eyes.

[BenjaminT16]

???????????? LMAO

[ElConquistadorNo1]

@BenjaminT16 I always thought the mystery song was the funniest part of the bit; when interviewed on "The Actors Studio", Eddie said it was his favorite of the skit. "Once Buckwheat sings a song, it's eternally his" was also a brilliant line.

[Hellion1]

Whats the last song hes singing is it Betty Davis eyes?

[dontoedon57]

O Tay....Just great!!! And very funny....

[CharlieOchs]

Bill English (the once and forever REAL Buckwheat) is bagging groceries in Tempe, Arizona. That's de facto in Mexico.

[redhot916spd]

bad fucking ass,  Hardy laughs found here

[icemanphotography8]

Fee times a mayday ... stinkin hilarious!

[robynkellycole]

Have always and will always love this!

[EvilShadow76]

I haven't seen this in years! Do you have the other parts where they announce that Buckwheat has been shot or James Brown's Celebrity Hot Tub? or even better...Mr. Robinson's Neighborhood!

I wish Eddie Murphy would go back to this type of comedy. He truly shines at it.

[pukkalovesya]

@EvilShadow76 I still haven't been able to get my hands on any of those, but I'm working on it :)

[deemunny2]

@pukkalovesya There is a DVD of "Eddie Murphy - Best of SNL" that has the hot tub, Mr Robinson, Stevie Wonder with Frank Sinatra (Joe Piscopo), and these buckwheat vids - plus his SNL host speech after he did "Best Defense"... all are hilarious.

[budgiebottom69]

@pukkalovesya

i found those on eddiie murphys SNL dvd, there is a series of them for many of the superstars who began on SNL have a look for the series!

[warrengonline]

@EvilShadow76 Same here. Now his comedy is so, mediocre. It is no where as hilarious as it used to be.

[schizlor]

@EvilShadow76 Don't forget his stirring rendition of "Kill the White People"

[jamjar1314]

@EvilShadow76 Totally mate....I forgot all about this to. the one where get shot is mint....."A nub you..A nub you" hahahahahaha

[usernametoo2]

@EvilShadow76 i have all of those on saurday night live's best of eddie murphy

[usernametoo2]

@EvilShadow76 i could try to send you a copy or put it on youtube

[floatersrus]

John David Stutts...voted most likely to kill Buckwheat! ......"Do you think that John David Stutts killed Buckwheat?" ..... "Oh yes definately, it's all he ever talked about!" tee hee

[WilliamDRowlett]

@floatersrus What about the insurance company they had? "Liberty Mutual. Because you could die tomorrow. (Like Buckwheat just did)". Joe Piscopo as Ted Koppel. The "Buckwheat has been shot" was a spoof on the TV news coverage of President Reagan being shot. The news kept re-playing over and over and over the shooting of Reagan and they did the same thing here.

[floatersrus]

@WilliamDRowlett Right on brother! I remember and love it all!



[RazrHack]

I think ????? was a Bob Dylan song.

[honitsten]

@RazrHack I believe it was Bette Davis Eyes by Kim Carnes

[HEBisreal]

what  the Fuck ? LOL

[TheRenaissancePen]

Hey he reminds me of Darryl/Roger. +JVA+

[MervynCruddy]

When I put "Lookin' for Love" on my iPod a few years ago, I titled it "Wookin Pa Nub"

[stevieplez2]

Wookin pa nub in all da wong paces, wookin pa nub... LOL

[joeshlatbonk]

I can't hear "Three Times a Lady" and "Looking for Love" without cracking up thinking about this sketch.

[MiamiPush2theLimit]

[HillbillyMash]

Buh-weet needs to find his soulmate! BNQLmHKlmiE

[stylesclash101]

this is crazy..its like blackface all over again..that character sucks

[stableshadow]

@stylesclash101 Ah, you're an idiot. He's black so it can't be blackface. But if he were imitating white trash that would be OK, right? What are you, some white liberal elitist or plain third-rate college educated pseudo-intellectual pent-up with white guilt. Get a life.

[stylesclash101]

@stableshadow How am I an idiot? I said that because the "Buckwheat" character from the original "Little Rascals" was demeaning the my race. He was dumb, illiterate, and had nappy ass hair. Thats how black characters were back in the 1930s-40s. That is where my comparison to "blackface" comes in. So before you insult, try to get the bigger picture..Just watch this link /watch?v=7LMrdcs4ucc&feature=f­vw

[stableshadow]

@stylesclash101 Fair enough -- I thought you were referring to Murphy's parody. That's why I thought you were a white liberal elitist, the type who would totally misconstrue the MURPHY's parody of the character. As to Buckwheat, I can totally see how black people would find that offensive. However, he was my favorite when I was little and I always imagined that of all the Rascals he would be the one that I would want to be friends with the most.

[ElConquistadorNo1]

@stylesclash101 He was around 5 years old, so the character is naturally limited. And you should hope to achieve idiocy; you are nothing more than a divisive, mindless drone.

[stylesclash101]

@ElConquistadorNo1 You are a very small minded person to step so low to insult someone on the internet. What the fuck am I supposed to do? Get angry? Why don't do some research on 1930s-40s television and the agenda that Hollywood had to demean African-Americans. Thats what I was talking about. Apparently you didn't understand or you didn't get it? I'm not sure. And I don't care. But I do think you should know what you're talking about before you make such a ignorant comment again.

[ElConquistadorNo1]

@stylesclash101 How do you justify your ad hominem remarks? I thoroughly understand Hollywood's degrading portrayal of blacks before the civil rights movement; I know about what I write. It is an unfair comparison you've drawn between minstrel shows and The Little Rascals; if you take your own advice, you know the difference. This is my piece of advisement to consider: if you wish to engage in an intellectual mode of discourse, be prepared to back your words with substantive examples of fact.

[stylesclash101]

@ElConquistadorNo1 You think my remarks are ad hominem? You honestly don't see how the Buckwheat character could be offensive? Even though The Little Rascals was a children's show and the scenes were not done maliciously and seemed innocent; you don't remember any stereotypical watermelon jokes or anything like that? Please dude..you don't want it.

[ElConquistadorNo1]

@stylesclash101 Your opening was classically ad hominem, as you utilized a denigrating term in taking issue with my assessment, considered by you to be an insult. And no, I do not perceive the Buckwheat character by any means to be offensive. You also incongruously state that it "was a children's show and the scenes were not done maliciously", then proceed to ask me if I "remember any...watermelon jokes or anything like that?" I know what I am doing; you should plead only for further schooling.

[stylesclash101]

@ElConquistadorNo1 Take your own advise my friend.

[stylesclash101]

@ElConquistadorNo1 I seriously wish you'd do more research. No matter how many long words you use; you are still not saying anything. But as I stated earlier I don't care if you are on the same page as me or not. Good day.

[ElConquistadorNo1]

@stylesclash101 What research needs to be done? You have assumed an ever-weakening position. In the absence of rationale, you are grasping at straws, and coming off desperate. You have failed to back your argument, and are now lashing out. If I am not on the same page as you, perhaps it is because I have turned that page long ago.

[guerillapie]

@ElConquistadorNo1 no one cares

[ElConquistadorNo1]

@guerillapie Then dummy up and beat it.

[granitepeaks1]

I wish this would have been the whole bit...it's one of the classics.

[alltrouble2]

If you don't like what color he is, then why come here & watch it!??

[lorireece1]

I think Eddie Murphy is THE funniest person ever to appear on SNL. Mr. Robinson's Neighborhood was killer funny! Oh, those were the days!

[stableshadow]

@lorireece1 This and Mister Robinson's Neighborhood used to floor me and my parents. So funny.

[CainmosniMirrored]

@lorireece1 The seasons with Adam Sandler, Chris Farley, David Spade, Mike Myers, Dana Carvey, Kevin Nealon, Norm McDonald, Dennis Miller and Phil Hartman are the best seasons.

[iChesus]

@CainmosniMirrored

hm what about bill murray, belushi, gilda, chevy, danny?// i mean i love the 90's casts too but the original cast was amazing...

[ladybuggs17]

back when SNL was funny....

[Jemfan37]

@ladybuggs17 yes today's comedian are not that funny. I stop watching SNL about 10 years ago.

[fatalgrace79]

@ladybuggs17 damn straight. I gave up on snl during the 90's

[warrengonline]

@ladybuggs17 Ha ha.. I think they ought to throw jello on the stage AT RANDOM and see what happens. Then later let a wild pig run lose on stage. Then Put up a photo of Beyonce, smack it, then Bring up Kanye West for the close speech every time. That'll rule for a month.
