The Racist $25,000 Pyramid!

If you appear on the $25,000 Pyramid, and Dick Clark gives you the category “Famous names that begin with the letter ‘C’”, what’s going through your mind? Is it the mantra “Don’t be racist…don’t be racist…don’t be racist…“? If it is, you probably should run off the set before this happens to you.

You’re going to have to excuse the following video, because I’m in it and not the most comfortable or likable person in front of a camera. But dear lord…just watch.


THE KICKER:

“Things that are douchebags, ummm… things that reveal their true nature…ummm…Things the audience suddenly turns on with low-ambiance boos…PASS PASS!”

I did a little research on the “celebrity” trying to get the NAACP Image Award here, and guess who he is? He’s actor Henry Polic II. And if that still doesn’t mean anything, consider that the show he was known for at the time was….

WEBSTER. FUCKING WEBSTER.

So I wonder if he considers Webster “that old black show?” Hell, I wonder if he considers Webster a “black show” at all. Does anyone? He must, because The Cosby Show would be “that NEW Black show.” The one he subconsciously knows is about to unseat his show. “Ruin his neighborhood,” if you will. One thing’s for sure, when George Papadapolis catches wind of this, it’s bang, zoom to the moon with this guy in a very special episode of Kicking Henry Polic’s Ass!

Henry Polic II went on to appear in one episode of Saved By The Bell, and Bill Cosby…well, Bill Cosby went on to have the number one Black show in America, until the number one Yellow show came along. Wait, I mean The Simpsons! I’m talking about The Simpsons!!! It was just a slip! Oh god, my career is over!!!

    Good stuff! I’ve got something just as good on the Price is Right from 1973, where Bob Barker tells a black lady that she might win a “colored television.” That makes me laugh to this day.

    And Webster isn’t a “black show”, it’s a white liberal guilt show, alongside Diff’rent Strokes, whose theme song suggests that adopting black midgets might be wrong for you, but there are some white people living in high rises that collect exotic pets.

    Webster was even worse, because even though Emmanuel Lewis looked three years old, he was actually 35. I wonder why Michael Jackson befriended him?
