Richard Pryor

[Ronnie Rep]

For Richard Pryor fans, must see! Omit the Logic Biopic on Showtime! 6-10 8:30p.m.eastern time!

Saw it. Lot of bio-pic stuff; light on the stand-up stuff.

My dad had one of his albums, when I was a child.  I would steal it at night, and listen to the story about the man putting his feet in the bucket of piss and how they would swell up.   

[Voice of Doom]

Genius.

[Ronnie Rep]

Crazy Genius! Gotta see it if you have Showtime!

[Mr Nobody]

During Busting Loose burnt himself doing coke, but a funny mofo he was.

Grew up with this 'drug' type humor albums. Ex: carlin, cheech and chong etc. but I never really got Pryor. Maybe I was too young

He was an important writer for "Blazing Saddles".  He was going to play "Sheriff Bart" in "Blazing Saddles"...but his reputation of being a coke head was such that Mel was afraid to trust him.  

[Purge_WTF]

The films he did with Gene Wilder are some of my faves.

Or the part about the Polar Bear with the "Tiny Feet"
