He's not alive lol. He has a son named Dwayne Wayans who is alive though. In fact, here's a video where Marlon discusses Dwayne (though he doesn't name him). The interviewer asks about his favorite/least favorite brothers. Around the 1 minute mark, Marlon says "probably the dead one." kzitem.info/news/bejne/p2mjp2eNoV-Tm3Y Thanks for watching. P.S. I'm pinning this since it seems to be a pretty popular misconception.

Why is it laughable when Marlon, Dwayne's brother, is the one that says he passed? His death is also briefly discussed in Tommy Davidson's memoir and David Peisner's history of the show. In his memoir, Davidson discusses Dwayne's son being a musical composer. This led me to the conclusion that Dwayne Wayans (the son) is the one that the recent credentials are for. You can also look at Dwayne's IG and you can see that he's a different (and much younger man) than the Dwayne that appeared on ILC. Also, based on my research, two sources claim he's alive: IMDB and Wikipedia. Other sources simply refer back to those two. If you have a credible source claiming he's alive, I'd love to see it.

Considering that Marlon had 4 brothers and Damon, Keenen, and Shawn are still alive doing interviews and stand up, who else would he be talking about? You're not going with Wikipedia (which can be edited by anyone) and IMDB over me, you're going with them over Dwayne's literal brother and acquaintances. IMDB also says that Shawn is Dwayne's parent LOL. If you wanna be a contrarian, just say that lol.

Between ages of 6-12 I hated being black. At 12, I tried to end it. The next-door neighbor’s dog saved my life. "In living color" made me realize that erasing myself wasn't the solution. The show allowed me to see the genuine problem which was the brainwashing from the toxic people in my life. Thank you to everyone who worked on the show. Your work and your artistry appreciated. We need that to motivate us to think differently and fight for what is right. “In Living Color” gave me the chance to embrace my identity and to express myself freely. Taught me finding humor in an unpleasant situation can heal the soul. Now, I am in love with myself and proud to be a dark skin black woman. “Wrote a song about it, like to hear it here it go."

I'm blown away.. this show meant so much to me... It was 10 when it premiered... Tried to catch as many episodes as I could.. I could if the parents went to bed early and I would sneak downstairs and keep the TV low.. I would sit right in front of it.. It was a 13-in TV.... With channel buttons running down the side. t... Of course, no remote... Kids today will never understand the struggle of changing channels.. And having to manually record episodes in a VCR.. Honestly it was stay up late and try to be as quiet as possible.. which was super hard because everything was funny Or you find someone you knew that had it on VCR. And we're willing to let you borrow it.. although we traded VCRs a lot... It sucked because You would have to return it and unless you had a dual deck VCR cassette recorder.. which was the only way you could make a copy... We did this with all the shows... Yep, the trade VCR cassettes... For living color... kids in the hall .. later Beavis and butthead.. South Park... Sifl and Ollie... Wondeshosen... Kids these days will never ever know how this felt... Not a clue

Its funny that the narrator and even others around the show were puzzled by David Allen Griers Jamaican accent for the Hey Mon sketch sounding Irish but this is actually historically accurate as that is where the Jamaican accent actually comes from as the very first slaves in the North Americas and especially the Carribean were white and Irish. Yes.dont get it twisted, they were slaves, some also were indentured servants but treated exactly the same. They were eventually housed with the African slaves that the Europeans bought in African slave markets from the other Africans who had enslaved them. The use of Irish slaves started to die out early on because they could not physically withstand the relentless tropical sun like their datker pigmented African brothers could. But by then, the Irish slaves who had taught their fellow black captors english, had left their irish accent with them and then the accent evolved into what we know of today.

Then later in the night was the Arsenio Hall show, which I also loved. ILC was the younger, hipper version of SNL, while Arsenio was the late night talk show for the younger, hipper demographic. Rumors were swirling about a possible ILC reunion show/season with most of the original cast agreeing to return. I read somewhere that FOX was all for it, but wouldn't give Keenan complete control of the show (production, direction, editing, etc) so he refused to do it. Maybe they can get a deal on another platform like Netflix or Hulu. 🤞

Thank you!!! Yes, I've been waiting for something like this. In Living Color was my favorite show when I was a kid. I was born in 82, so I was like 10 when the show peaked. It's one of the only good memories of me and my mother. She was a heroin addict and prostitute and I hated going to visit on the weekends with her (I grew up south Florida). But, there were those nights where we'd get pizza and watch this show and we would love it. Growing up I took a lot of that comedy from the show and used it in school to get attention. In middle school all the black kids would want me to do impressions and "act crazy" and I got most of it from the characters on this show. The favorite was me screaming "BAM" like Funky Finger Productions. I had all the DVDs when they came out, and it's so noticeable to see the quality go down in the later seasons. Especially without Damon. Damon was the biggest driving force of comedy on that show. I absolutely love that show and think it is light years beyond any other sketch comedy show I've ever seen. Nothing compares to it. It's ridiculously smart, funny, and over the top. Everything I love. And if you guys wanna laugh... like really laugh... Look up 'Tommy Davidson on Square Dancing!'

I'm just starting this so I can't comment on the video itself, but I can say thank you for the idea and all the work you did to bring it to us. I was in the 8th grade when ILC started so this brings me back to happier times. Thank you.

I thought it was funny. I always watched it. Looked forward to it. I like laughing. I liked the fly girls the whole shebang! Keenan did an awesome job and i am happy for him that he got it on tv. The men on film and any other risque skit was soooo coool!

No he isn't. I didn't put the clip in, but in an interview Marlon talks about how his "dead brother" is his favorite and that he misses him. In the same interview, he says that the interviewer looks like his niece Chaunte lol. His death was mentioned in the David Peisner book and in Tommy Davidson's memoir.

Kim is definitely the funniest and toughest Wayan out the bunch I love her and any character she have ever played even when she played on “In The House” as the psycho who was all over LL Cool J before they calmed her character down and turned her into a normal acting actress

Great video and info. Can't imagine the amount of time that you spent researching and editing to put this video together. Great job. I love this show growing up. It was definitely a show that you had to watch on Sunday night in order to talk about when you got to school Monday morning. That's all the kids would talk about. Thank you for putting this together.

now this is what family should be, regardless of color/race. everyone loves to go around proclaiming they're kings (only jesus was king) yet none of them want to put any work, they just want the crown.
