  • this was one of the craziest shows i ever saw and i am grateful for the gutsy person for posting this

  • also huntress and black canary OWWW!

  • why wasn't he in the superfriends line up? my childhood was cheated!

  • Who is that horrible black comic; and what happened to him?

  • I cringed while watching this..

  • Calling this lame would be a compliment.

  • the george washington carver joke was great

  • Well, he *is* a horribly racist caricature...

    ...but on the other hand, that is some catchy-ass entrance music...hmm...

  • Wow...

  • wtf

  • Ign told me about this. MASSIVE dc fan and I had no idea

  • 0:00-3:09 And this Kids, is why Marvel>DC.

  • Oi, Ghetto Man! John Stewart, Black Lightning, Static, Steel, Black Panther, Luke Cage, etc. called. They said FUCK YOU!!!

  • @SuperWolsey A couple of those are Marvel heros (Black Panther and Luke Cage), and a couple of those hadn't yet been created in 1979 (Static and Steel).

    Just nitpicking! ;-)

  • Lol. Thanks for this.

  • HAHA it's so racist oh my god.

  • I actually remember this on either Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays NBC channel 5 in Chicago waaaay back in the day!

  • this was the high point in African American Culture 

  • WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT THING THAT FLOATS IN AT THE END <

  • hancock?

  • Not one of television and Ed McMahon's notable achievements.

  • Oh shit, he just flips it on them.

  • "Ghet-toe Man!":)

  • Batman approves

  • KAREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEM

  • that's why i love the 70s. :D <3

  • This is like some rejected SNL sketch.

  • I feel so young, I don't understand half of these jokes

  • I feel so young knowing that ICANN onl

  • The actor who played Ghetto Man is very brave, he brings the world together by making both blacks and whites want to kick his ass for being so offensive.

  • The days when everyone in tv was high on coke :)

  • The cracked editors are too uptight about this one... this is actually pretty damn funny, especially for 1979.

  • haha racism....-_-

    

  • XD

  • KAREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEMMMMMMMM

  • MOTHER OF GOD

  • You know, I just have a little question?

    WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHY

  • Cracked!!!

  • So wrong in so many ways ... I love it

  • eu adorei eles responde perguntas

  • @leila12223 was? Ich verstehen Sie nicht.

  • this is funy

  • WOW!?!

  • KAREEEEEEEEM!

  • one of the most hilarious overtly racist things ever. And yes I'm a black dude

  • good ole 1970's black people werent so sensitive racism at its best...ahh the good ole days...sigh

  • @CapesandCloaks yeah you could call a nigger a nigger and he'd just grin and agree,riiiiiiight....

  • @CapesandCloaks You're joking right?

  • I like his shoes...

  • on 34s... BATMAN JUST CONFIRM GAY HE ISSSSSSSS!!!!!!!! HUAHAUHAUHAUAHAHA

  • Oh brother

  • 70's television. It'll never happen again...because no one knows how it happened the first time.

  • COULD IT BE ANYONE ELSE OTHER THAN JIMMY WALKER?!

  • Ah fuck, I laughed at the Chicago winter joke. Because its true. And may Ed McMahon burn in hell for this.

  • Television: America's Pride and Shame

  • ................cannot be unseen

    

  • That's some good old fashioned racism.

  • D:

  • why did this happen?

  • No wonder john Steward was chosen to be the Green Lanturn.

  • "Green Lantern don't count as no coloured person."

    Oh, just you wait, GhettoMan.

  • So....wrong

  • D:

  • What the hell am I watching?

  • Im going to go back in time and KILL THE JUSTICE LEAGUE

  • O.O

  • Ghetto Man FTW

    

  • But I was watching a preview of the Avengers, how the hell did I get here?

  • I don't know what the problem is. There are more black people in ghettos than white people. They need someone -- called Ghetto Man -- to represent the majority there. Hence, a black dude.

    Besides he was a funny dude. And it was the fucking 70s, no one -- not even Ghetto Man had a fucking problem with this,.

  • Fuck...me...wow. This actually happened?

  • We need to start a 10,000 signature petition and send it to Spike Lee asking him to direct a "Ghetto Man" movie.

  • @Srmhomer Hancock?

  • It's funny because the Green Lantern is black now.

  • @IndianaWalsh Correction: one of the Green Lanterns (John Stewart) is black. Actually, the character was created/debuted in the early 70's.

  • @IndianaWalsh what's fucked up is that the black green lantern was introduced 7 years before this show ever aired

  • @IndianaWalsh ONE of them and just for your information he was all ghetto at the begining. AND he was a SUBSTITUTE lantern. (yeah, I kind of hate the guy, I prefer Steel all the way, the best black superhero ever from DC)

  • @IndianaWalsh Oh God, another person who only knows the Justice League series.

  • @Brittonsp I'm aware of the other Lanterns, I'm just pointing out that the new-ish Green Lantern is black.

  • @IndianaWalsh That black Green Lantern has been around since 1972, and his is one of 4 Earth Green Lanterns. Two are white, one black, and one is half-Latino (he has been around for 15 years now).

  • @IndianaWalsh the white ones are still around too

  • That joke about George Washington Carver is friggin' brilliant.

  • That was the 70's. Ghetto Man said it in a way that no one was pissed off but that people would take note.

  • How in hell could this have gone out on the airwaves!?!

  • Oh, the 70's....

  • I remember seeing this when I was nine. THE CHALLENGE was cool enough for a kid, but THE ROAST I though was so boring. No fighting, no chasing, just sitting around to borschet-belt jokes. This stuck in my head for so long I thought I dreamed it up. Nice to know I wasn't the only one that rememberd this cheesefest.

  • This is so so fucking racist,its just downright atrocious. Its even worse than Cracked described. This was made in 1979 for Christ's sake.

  • dude, calm down...its only a comedy...but hey, this is Affirmative Action at work here...

  • OMG.. I watched this in 1979 when I was 6 years old, and it has stuck out in my memory all these years. Probably because it is the most BIZARRE thing ever to air on national TV. I mean, who the hell came up with this s***??!!

    I remember being totally confused because the only "roast" I knew of was the kind you eat. LOL

  • This is some racist s*** yo.

  • Holy shit... this is real?

  • "And his mama cries.."

  • I just peed my pants. This is so goddamn racist, it's not funny..

  • Comment removed

  • @ReservoirDog1026, Chappelle would have been about 10 when this was on the air. I remember when this originally aired and was totally appalled. Liked the costumes and make-up, story and acting stank.

  • WTF!!

  • it would've been better if Dave Chappelle played Ghetto Man

  • Oh my...

  • HOLY SUPER ROAST, BATMAN! What in the world was they thinking! Letting a non hero in the secret hide out of the Superfriends.

  • Good lord...

  • Well...at least batman's down with em' !

  • OMFG I WANT SOME MY OWN HUMAN SIZED JLA

  • Holy shiiiiiiiiiiit

  • OMG O_O ! and I thought black vulcan was incredibly offensive cause they had to add the black into the name of an African American superhero. but this...this is 1400 different levels of racism . if you look backstage you'll find political correctness just hanged himself

  • this is fucking great

  • Oh my fucking god... Cracked you did it again.

  • Racism was funny in the 70's

  • hilarious

  • This hurts.

  • In a fight, 1970's black guys would be no match for 1990's black guys.

  • Cocaine was all the rage in the 1970's. 

  • hillarious!

  • SO AMAZING

  • Oh......My........God..... (slits own throat)

  • 0:29 makes me think of the present-day Batman and how he'd respond...

  • OH. MY. GOD.

  • anyone else find it funny that green lantern became black?

  • @TheElementalrocker1 He never "became black", dude. There's more than one Green Lantern.

  • @VsxFedora See Justice Legue/Justice Legue Unlimated the animated series plus several variations of the Green Lantern series. PS i know theres an army of green lanterns, also theres black lanterns, yellow lanterns, ect.

  • @TheElementalrocker1 I am well aware of that... John Stewart. Hal Jordan. Four different main Earth-based GLs.

  • @VsxFedora if i say your right will that make you feel better? im more of a marvel/ Mark Miller comics buff anyway...

  • As Rick James said, "Cocaine is a hell of a drug."

  • ALL GLORY TO THE CRACKED

  • What in the blue hell is this??? AND What the hell is Cracked???

  • CRACKED IS GOD.

  • I'm black and what is this?

  • I saw this because of Cracked. Oh God.

  • CHRIS ROCK AWAAAAAAY!!!!!!!

  • CRACKED!

  • oh my god... what the FUCK did i just watch? i don't think i;ll be able to sleep tonight.

  • I also came from Cracked!

  • We watched this in class. Hilarious!

  • Yep, cracked sent me also.........and this is just some racist BS!

  • Cracked = retarded

    People spamming video comments with messages about how they found video = even more retarded

  • I have this feeling that fewer people would have called this horrible if Chris Rock had been involved, instead of Ed McMahon. N-word privileges, anyone?

  • Crackd <3

  • cracked is so great

  • cracked!

  • omfg....absolutely horrid.

  • Cracked is fukin amazing...and I'm so glad it led all of us to this classic bit of hardcore racism! GO CRACKED!...I mean KAREEEEEM!

  • I am simply going to start screaming "Kareeeeem" and fly around the office everytime someone asks me to do something.

  • Unbelievable.

  • I too am from Cracked. This is awful,

  • Karem!

  • dear god that was offensive!

  • That was a pretty solid number actually

  • CRACKED!!!!!!

  • O_O wow...just, wow...

  • cracked.com

  • THIS HAPPENED.

  • Greetings from Cracked.com

  • That Flash joke was actually pretty good.

  • laughed so hard i gots to get me some watermelon

  • I don't know, sounds like the same stuff you hear on Comedy Central today--jokes performed based on the demographic of the comedian because it's what that comedian works best with. It's unclassy, uncreative, and unfunny, but I wonder if it was the comedian's idea, or if the writers came up with it, because that makes the difference.

  • what in the name of jehovah

  • Oh my god..what did i just see....

  • Holy crap... what did I just watch?

  • It's amazing that the "only black superhero" was some guy who actually shucked-and-jived like a good home boy. They actually dressed him in ghetto rags! Things have changed. A little.

  • Oh... Oh my God...

    You just don't sink much lower than this.

  • This. Is. So. AWKWARD.

  • Have you ever wondered why the earth is going subtly faster right now? It's because in 1979, Martin Luther King Jr. was spinning in the right direction.

  • not funny and racist. the guy looks like a crackhead.

  • That's good old fashioned family racism.

  • This was painful in so many ways, like how it was painfully unfunny...

  • oops

    

  • the racism burns so much

  • it's funny .. i find this less racist than the shit we live in today .. if you think about it back then everyone knew black people were descriminated .. hell even tv shows were openly racist .. you can openly insult black people and they can openly ask you kindly to fuck off and get bent

    now we can't talk about it, it's like it never even existed ... you know there are even more racism than before ... and you can't even dare say something ... the result is it only gets worse

  • that's really stereotypical reminds me of undercover brother

  • 3:00...Did....did he just pelvic thrust his way off the stage?

  • lol niggers==this video also black people love chicken to the point of cannibalism

  • @Jaistar2k22 Your sentence was barely intelligible.

  • Man, to think that these days we're still regurgitating the same shit.

    When it's from this era, it's funnier to me, cause it's authentic.

    Wicked funny segment! Thanks for sharing!

  • WTF?!!!

    Also:  Cracked!

  • lol guys this is from an old time, lighten up. It's too terrible to be taken seriously rofl
