Well,
y’all have been loving (loving!) Nerve and IFC’s “50
Greatest Comedy Sketches of All Time.” But, as with any “best of” list,
there’s been some contention. Some comments. Some “how the hell did you miss
this YouTube clip, you cheeky bastards?!” sorts of things. In the interest of
love, peace, and comedy everywhere, we here at the Nerve Insider will do our
best to fill in the gaps, find the clips you demand, and spread more comedy
love.
Today, we’re responding to “TF”
who wanted more “In Living Color,” as well as a little “Word Association” with
Richard Pryor and Chevy Chase…
“TF” said:
"This is a great list. Of
course, all critical lists are subjective. So with that being said, you guys
missed several great comedy sketches. In Living Color has several great comedy
skits. Homey D. Clown, The Buttmans, Men on Films. Any of these skits should
have been on the list. Your Ernie Kovacs pick was horrible. Ernie is the father
of comedy skits. Surely, you could have found a better clip. And the best
comedy sketch of all time is the classic 1975 SNL skit -- "Word Association"
starring Richard Pryor and Chevy
Chase. You guys missed the boat." --TF, 04/12
Here you go, TF! Enjoy…
