Damn, Nothing like a Rerun Montage- check it at 1:56, it looks like Lady Miss Kier from Dee-light picked up a few Rerun moves too! Right hand, left hand shoulder pop drop!
Rerun came to my high school around 1991 to give a speech about Drug Abuse. Came out from behind the auditorium curtins doing the dance, wearing the suspenders. Those of us who witnessed that witnessed history that day.
man love this. you have alot of his best stuff. except the episode where he is getting married he dances for his soon to be wife. also would have been dope to see some of his soul train get downs. but thanks i watch this clips all the time for inspiration
@respectourwomen I think this the 2nd contest between the two for this episode. First contest, Disco Danny took Rerun's heart and sent him home with his tail between his legs.
ReRun ends up getting the spot, instead of the kids. But, ReRun has a change of heart when the show airs and fakes an injury, to let the kids have the spot, instead. Roger, Dwayne, and Dee catch on, when ReRun's allegedly twisted ankle doesn't bother him, as he's cheering along with them, when those kids do a great job.
I remember that Gong Show episode, from 2:15 onward. Roger and Dwayne were trying to get a spot for a local singing group, comprised of a bunch of kids from their neighborhood (all brothers and sisters). But, Rerun (unbeknownst to the rest) was planning to book himself on the show. That's why they (see Dwayne's face, for example) were so shocked, when ReRun broke a 45 and had the producers play it, while he auditioned for the show himself.
@TheGreenEyedLeo me to little teary eyed man i love this so much nice to see people appreciate this wonderful show and rerun was killing this dance wasn't he
@sw1zzie ..i love the look on his fellow actors' faces when rerun dances...they look so amazed that a big person can move like that..so clean and so fresh..lol..rest in peace, rerun!
@sw1zzie Of course your body type matters. Otherwise we would see more fat guys dance like this. The fact that almost every profesional dancer is fit means nothing to you? But sure, this guy is really awesome for being big.
@sw1zzie Well, "Rerun" wasn't OBESE. Overweight, yes, but not really really fat. I think a 300, 400, or 500 lb person woul SEVERELY injur him or herself if motions like this were tried, not to mention, kind of like an "abaya" (aka the black tentlike dress Saudi women wear outside), that much excess weight would tend to "hide" any smooth moves.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Growing up all I seen on TV was Black people. "Whats Happening" , "The Jeffersons", "Goodtimes", "Sanford and Son", "Fat Albert", "Different Strokes". I thought all black people lived like the black folks on those TV shows. Man was I wrong! One common theme through out them all was that they attempted to brain wash America and harm white children by attempting to implant "white guilt" in their heads. As soon as I got out and had to deal with blacks on a personal level my illusions where gone.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@mrsimon. you got that right. colored people are blame us for getting up late in the morning. we still have the "black history month", there history is colorful clothing and grass huts. lol
If you don't like it, get off your do-nothing ass and do something about it, that's what all you morons claimed to be doing back then, but what'd you do instead? That's right, you morons went to prison for meth and molesting children. If you want to 'deal' with something, be a fucking man about it you eternal pussy. Now go back to fryin' yer squirell Jeb, LOL!
@MrSimonGirty. You should've just changed the channel if you didnt like it....btw, now that your 'illusions' have disappeared, what good did you gain?
I never said it was a style tho... And how do you figure its a commercialized term? I would say the commercialization is people identifying poppers as bboys or those type of generalizations.. poplocking is more of an oldschool term used by the community I would say, and even some dancers.... My point is, if you say poplock people will do all styles that fall under popping... u cant expect everyone to be up to date on terminology..
what do you mean? If you ask people to pop lock they will most likely do waves and robotic movements, some locking moves, and maybe some hitting.. all styles that fall under the more technical term popping... lets say for instance if you had asked michael jackson to do a "back slide" but he only knew it as a moonwalk... would that make him any less good at it? It doesnt matter what you call it, its how you do it...
