This character is so cool and funny, why isn't he super famous like all those other people on this show. Hell even J-lo is a superstar. I think this is robbery
calhoun tubbs songs are completely pointless. ...but i made a song about it, like to hear it, here it goes, "Calhoun Tubbs... got-songs-thats-completely-pointless. Ahhhhhhhhhahaha, thank ya ve'y much..." OMG he's so funny.
As a songwriter myself, when I saw him perform this skit live, back in the day, and I had said those same exact words --" I wrote a song about it; like to hear it; here it goes."-- by the time he got around to the third or fourth song--and they all sounded just alike, and they all ended with that same "Ahhahhahh..." This s*it had me laughing so hard that I REALLY was rolling on the floor: Crying; with a stomach ache; about to piss my pants.
I wish someone would put more of this dude on youtube. There's one where he's in a prison, singing to the inmates and it is so funny. Please post more Calhoun Tubbs on YouTube
You mean to tell me that of all the Youtube vids NOBODY has posted Calhoun at the funeral? Does anybody have it, cause I'm dying to see that one. This is classic.
I was pissing in my pants watching that one! 'Fatback's wife was nuttin' but a stank tramp..she had a bastard child....hahaaaaa...thank you very much!' Too funny!
That is too funny, I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that one was hilarious. "Fatback aint have no career in show bidness, ya bout to lose the house and car....ah haa haaa thank you very much..."
Out of all the characters on In Living Color, Calhoun Tubbs is my favorite by miles, and there are a lot of good characters on the show. This is still hilarious years later, thanks for the video.
I would like to see more Calhoun Tubbs. There was one I recall where he was in a prison, singing to the inmates. It was hilarious. I think that David Alan Grier is a genius. Thanks for the laughs.
SOMEONE anybody PLEASE put up the episode of Calhoun playing for the prison inmates. You'll all be in prison no time flat... just like Todd Bridges aaa hhaaaa haaaa...
too funny lol
