Positively Kanyon 0 Report post Posted September 6, 2004 A spin-off from the Robin Williams thread... Has anybody seen these two shows? I happen think that Raw is the funnier stand-up show that Eddie did, I was in stitches the whole time. Don't get me wrong, Delirious is an excellent show, but I think he outdid it with Raw. Raw is a good quality show overall, but my favourite parts are: Bill Cosby Italians/Rocky The Nightclub Fight Any fans here? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zack Malibu 0 Report post Posted September 6, 2004 I LOVE RAW. I'm a huge Eddie fan, (hell I just bought Metro today on DVD finally) and that is by far his shining moment, IMO. The Bill Cosby/Richard Pryor skit was a classic. Even the slightest shit (like when he impersonates white people dancing, complete with nerdy suburban white guy voice) had me in tears. I wasn't too keen on the show ending skit (the poor family/toy factory bit), but overall RAW wins out, IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Mr. Wrestling Report post Posted September 6, 2004 Raw was better. Eddie Murphy is a great comedian, too bad he started doing kiddy movies. We need the Eddie of old back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"Doc: Mr Johnson you have AIDS Johnson: You see my wife had kissed a fag on the lips and I must have got the AIDS that way. Doc: Suuure you're not a homosexual." "Norton How you would like to fuck me up the ass? I know that you know that I know that you want to fuck me up the ass. So when I bend over, start fucking" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shanghai Kid 0 Report post Posted September 6, 2004 Delirious by a MILE. Raw was good, but Eddie just didn't have the same edge, and their was a couple of dry spots during Raw while Delirious never lets up. Delirious IMO may be the best comedy stand up special ever.

Youth N Asia 0 Report post Posted September 7, 2004 Delirious is the funniest stand up ever. I just watched it a couple weeks ago and it still killed me. RAW starts great and ends great, but once he goes on relationships in the middle it drags. Eddie's drunk dad and Uncle Gus is the best thing ever Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Positively Kanyon 0 Report post Posted September 7, 2004 I thought the relationship stuff was great! I thought it was hilarious when he was talking about "Half" and having to go to the deserts of Africa to find himself a wife, comedy gold! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

teke184 0 Report post Posted September 8, 2004 Raw is available on DVD today. Best Buy has it for $9.99. How come no Delirious on DVD? Don't know for sure, but it hasn't been available on VHS in years. It's the only reason why I still haven't destroyed my old bootleg containing Delerious, RAW, and Eddie Murphy's Best of SNL. Oh, BTW, I voted for Delerious because it had a better flow than RAW. Besides that, the recurring bits between the two tended to be better in it than in RAW. Example- Gay Honeymooners, Mr. T, and Michael Jackson in Delerious vs. the Mr. T Jedi Mind Trick, "I'll moonwalk all up and down your ass!", and "I can't go to San Francisco... they've got a 24-hour homo watch for me at the airport!" The one piece I'm a little divided on is drunken Mr. Murphy at the family barbecue ("Gus, you married a bigfoot, didn't ya?") vs. drunken Mr. Murphy talking about how poor he was ("I used to wear a Twister suit to school! Right hand blue! Left foot red! It was a goddamn game to these kids!"). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eddie walks up to the preacher- "Look man, my daugher is in the TV, all my stuff is at the house, go over there and do what you want, I just didn't want you to think I killed her." "But Mr. Murphy, didn't you try to save your daughter"? "Yeah I tried to save her, I changed the channel and the shit didn't work so I got the fuck out of there". Eddie walks into house- "Baby this house is beautiful, you got a nice neighborhood, kids playing in the street, nice chandalier" Voice- " GET OUT"! "Too bad we can't stay, let's get the fuck out". White guy turns the sink on, blood comes out instead of water. White guy looking at the sink- "Well that's peculiar". Nothing beats Delirious. And let's not forget the greatest quote ever- "And then he said Goony Goo Goo" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
