This is Richard Pryor. Serious comedy. For all of you who feel this is not up to standards you're used to. You must be too young or you forgot what the 70's were like. This is real 'push the envelope' comedy. Sometimes you laugh and you realize, there is a real sad message behind what you've just witness. And sometimes it's just downright bellyaching funny. The problem was, television was not ready for Richard Pryor. The few places television allowed him to take us, he had to fight, scratch and kick just to get his point made. Does Dave Chappelle come to mind? You can't look at this as just a comedy show. You've got to look at it as a documentary. Be glad we've got this little taste of Richard.
