I loved Saturday Night Live when Eddie Murphy was a regular. He was HILARIOUS!!!

[vbb148]

eddie! please come back to snl!

[Sudiegirl1969]

I LOVE this skit! I think it's my favorite Eddie skit next to the performance at the VFW hall by Tyrone Green and his reggae band..."Kill de white people, but buy my record first!"

[bmxf1]

BETCHA BOTTOM DOLLA DON'T SHINE!!!

[MrFoote55]

Eddie Murphy is truly one of the greatest of all time!!!

[thetman102771]

[ballamafia]

FUNNY AS HELL!!! LMBOOOOOOOOOOOO

[msdazja]

I love this..lmao

[Revmostrite]

hilarious!

[TjonesPoc]

@viktorhat Sadly he wore a dress in Men in Tights when they snuck to the archery contest. But at least it was only once.

[dlastqueen]

ROFLOL!!!

[Tyler12236]

Lol

[iisweet]

lol



[kalimaganeshshivan]

@viktorhat She probably didn't know or forgot about it, I mean that crap film was pretty forgettable!

[kalimaganeshshivan]

@viktorhat Actually early in Dave's career he did wear a dress in that retarded Mel Brooks movie, "Robin Hood, Men in Tights".

[79crystalcrazy]

nice legs lol

[bkthin]

@viktorhat NNNNNNOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bkthin]

@viktorhat what about steve harvey?

[gvillebound]

I been looking for this so long...thank you

[PRHousequake]

This is my all time FAVORITE SNL skit!!!!!

[vette57]

I remember this. I liked it so much and was so happy with the cape thing just like JB did.

[kalimaganeshshivan]

@viktorhat Even Wesley "The Blade" Snipes dressed in drag for "To Wong Fu". Now that's hilarious and fucked up!

[zeelove8]

dave C wont do the dress bit cause he claims its a hollywood conspiracy type sht to subliminally keep the black man down- like some what less of a whole man,, to the masses-people who watch tv, an mo cow-robots/ the people who are easily manipulated by the media which btw is more then most, the people who watch tv/movies,,, the tv is a very powerful tool at governing the ones who watch it,, an Dave C,, is highly aware of these sort of conspiracies in our media, he's smarter then u think

[epics7]

@viktorhat Are you fucking serious? Talk about homophobic. He is a fucking comedian actor. As if Dave/Eddie is going to turn into a fag. Some paranoid ass people on here. If you're confident in yourself, you don't have those hang up and fears. I seriously doubt that Murphy had anxieties when he wore that dress. It's a fucking parody. Put two and two together and you'll understand the concept behind the joke.

[kalimaganeshshivan]

@epics7 Eddie Murphy is a fucking hypocrite! He talked about how much he despises homosexuals in both "Delirious" and "Raw", and yet he traverses Sunset Boulevard to solicit transvestite and/or transsexual hookers for sex. Then he lies to the police and media that he was there to give them a ride home because they looked like they needed a "helping hand"! BULLSHIT!

[janetenn]

@kalimaganeshshivan it's called being in the closet



[kalimaganeshshivan]

@epics7 And Eddie KNEW that they were hookers in drag and trannies.!

[inspire11slt]

CLASSIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Rudie29]

I have NEVER seen this! And I thought that I watched all of the SNL seasons that Eddie Murphy was on!

[justamy55]

This was a classic!! Eddie Murphy is sooo freakin funny!

[dalton4life1]

Most male SNL cast members put on a dress at some point. It comes with the territory. Of course Eddie Murphy did it in the movies too.

[heirtoruin]

Curious what skin color has to do with the whole dress thing... :/

[mikedav9O]

@viktorhat

david chapelle? no!

[treystyles01]

funny shit!! luv tha leg work!!!!

[robinkom]

This is hilarious... I have the "Best of of Eddie Murphy" VHS with this and those few other skits that were left off the DVD. What happened, man...?! Eddie used to be hi-fucking-larious!

[kojokenyatta]

I can watch this over and over not matter how old this is...eddie murphy had me crying when i first saw this as a young kid and it is still funny as hell...I'm just mad that they didn't put this on the BEST OF EDDIE MURPHY SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE DVD.

[bkthin]

@kojokenyatta they did on vhs not dvd. they also forgot opie cunnihgham

[roscoegino]

@bkthin and his dig on bill cosby. the VHS must b worth alot

[bkthin]

@roscoegino $2.81 on amazon

[roscoegino]

@bkthin well its cheap but its worth alot

[bkthin]

@roscoegino the sad thing is you can't convert it to dvd. they put on a protect that you can't copy it

[roscoegino]

@bkthin must be a last pressing. the earliest pressing of the vhs is unlikely to have protect.

[DrDmoney82]

@kojokenyatta the sad part is they did have it on his best of. there was a vhs version of it and it had it on there. i hate that i lost the tape

[ReeseMac]

@kojokenyatta ....Are there any musical numbers like this on the DVD version?

[josymon]

This is great. Now where the hell is James Brown Celebrity Hot Tub Party?!

[trebleboostboy]

[0pine0tron6000]

When I was a kid watching this shit I used to be in TEARS. I remember crying so hard I couldn't breathe. SNL really used to be funny.

...that or I really used to be young.

[jaybizzile]

some one needs to upload the vhs version of best of eddie murphy

[Zoltzmen]

Could never find this bit on the best of Eddie Murphy releases. I saw this when it originally aired; to this day, I still think it's the funniest, most creative skit he ever performed on SNL.

[DontezOfficial]

This is one of the greatest skits I have ever seen in my life!!!! Eddie was in his prime:) One of the funniest men to ever do it....

[dad2ujunior]

@DontezOfficial So is that kill the white people rasta skit.They should have that one from snl with eddie murphy.funny stuff.Eddie murphy was the best when he was on snl.classic.

[kookoo78]

@dad2ujunior I think he was best before he went into the children's films. Raw was an masterpiece

[mibear45]

thumbs up if you think you just lost some IQ points

[TheSassiee]

I remember watching this prime time on SNL when I was still in high school.

[gianofer]

I'm pretty sure I just peed my pants a little!

[rabba54321]

he almost looses it @1:03

[piketyl000]

don't get lippy with me lol

[DeusImperium]

I have the dvd and its missing from it. That sucks.

[wrldtvlr2]

Thanks so much for uploading. I had it on VHS growing up and LOVED it...I have been waiting (seemingly in vain) for the DVD...

[pandoraintokyo]

Eddie Murphy + Little Orphan Annie + James Brown = WIN!

[MizMostLikelyToFail]

I love Eddie Murphy. He's so funny

[SoulBlisterN9]

Found this searching for his "Little Richard Simmons. I found part of the Buckwheat's Greatest Hits.

[tastyfreeze111]

still funny til this day....wheres the kill the white people skit and buckwheats greatest hits?.....(wookenpanub...lol)

[jidase]

The only musical I will go and see if it ever comes to the stage!

[bigsmoove2000]

This a rare clip and one of Eddie's funniest in my opinion. I had to order an old VHS tape to get this skit as it was not on any SNL DVDs I could find.

[cmh522]

@bigsmoove2000

The DVD is missing footage that is on the original VHS releases. There are 2 different versions of Eddie Murphy's Best of SNL. One VHS tape has Tyrone Green and his reggae band singing " Kill The White People", along with James Brown is Annie on the 1989 unedited version. The 1998 VHS version that was released removed these 2 skits. The DVD is missing a lot of footage from both VHS tapes and does not include either of these 2 classic SNL skits. I have both VHS tapes & DVD.

[kookoo78]

@bigsmoove2000 It's not and I think that sucks ass because this is comedy perfection right down to the audacity that the GodFather of Soul would portray little Orphan Annie dress and all, but add his funk to the music...one word Genius and that's why Eddie is a legend!!!

[Snef1971]

This was one of my favorite SNL skits.  Can you find the one where he did the James Brown Hot Tub skit?

[cdyami316]

@Snef1971  You have to go to NBC's website to watch it. That video isn't aywhere on Youtube
