He is not!!

Kramer is a character who is nervous, if you've ever been around a nervous person who never really "gets it", you can laugh at Kramer because that character reminds you of someone you know. But, Dave C. reminds me of nobody, and I don't find him funny at all.

I liked both. Kramer was very funny in Seinfeld. And Dave Chappelle is very funny on his show or even as an actor (at least I enjoyed Half Baked quite a bit).

oh man, i havent thought about half baked in a long time. funny as hell!!!

richards was at his best in uhf.

Richard's best performance was in Transelvania 6-5000. Hilarious cult movie, he was great in that.

been a looooong time since i saw that...i dont even remember what part he played

He played a silly butler, basically Kramer but in Transelvania.

oh yeah, he was the butler that kept screaming "N*****R!!!!!!!! HE'S A N*****R!!!!!!!!"

Hahaha

No, that was the director's cut.

You mean a psycho? The problem is in the footage, you don't get to hear everything said before he exploded. I'm not advocating his behavior of "going off" on the audience, but he's not the first comedian that has lashed out on the audience, his was racial, but so was the first comment made to him.

HAHAHA! Yes, I mean PSYCHO. HaHa...sorry, you served me. I'm pwned.

Watched Seinfeld last night and laughed my ass off and didnt even think about all the fuss goin on with Richards.
I dont care anymore.

Though I must wonder - he is a seasoned comedian, and one of the first rules for being a comedian is about having a thick skin and dealing with hecklers. Loosing it like that seems a bit out of character.

Not entirely, Richards is a Method actor, he's not quite a "seasoned" comedian, so when the guys started heckling him, he didn't know how to react. Which is why he freaked out at them and said things he didn't really mean.

That is every celebrity's defense these days. You cannot hold me responsible for the words coming out of my mouth. then the celebrity is quietly carted off to rehab or counseling. This is crap. If you say something then you have to take credit for it.

I don't think he's using it as a defense. I think Schmedi is using it to explain what happened. It's a different thing entirely.

Of course. He apologized didn't he? The point is that he isn't necessarily racist just because he insulted black hecklers as niggers.

Yeah i heard he loves the chinese
