#15 - Comic View

Being Black can be stressful sometimes. After a hard days work at a mediocre dead-end job the Black individual deserves some respite. So whats a Black person to do to rid themselves of this stress. Laugh. They say laughter is the best medicine, this is where Comic View comes into play.
For those of you who do not know what Comic View is let me explain. Comic View is a Black-oriented stand-up comedy show, which gave many Black comedians their start. Think, D.L Hughley and Cedric the Entertainer. The best thing about Comic View is the absence of Larry the Cable Guy, Dane Cook, and lame white jokes. Comic View is keepin’ it real in full effect.
An enjoyable part of Comic View is the introduction/theme song. Many a times you will hear Black folk’ singing along. If you are white or have not watched an episode of Comic View I’ll provide the lyrics for you. This may come in handy when trying to befriend a Black person. Lyrics-
Comic View on B.E.T.,
Coming to you six nights a week,
Get ya laugh on, hey!
Everybody get ya laugh on.
For white people: If you are engaged in conversation with a Black person, and an awkward silence occurs, spontaneously bust out in the Comic View theme song. This will show that you have culture and also watch Comic View at every possible occasion. To further reinforce that you watch B.E.T, mention Bruce Bruce and how you love the way he makes fun of his own obesity. Also, claim that Comic View was “oh so much” better before it went to New Orleans.
