It's worse than offensive.

It's not funny.

You can get away with anything if it's funny enough.

This sketch as a premise would be 10× funnier if it was done by Richard Pryor and Paul Mooney. Type of shyt you would see in Blazing Saddles.

Not offensive. Its an interesting concept, but like most K&P skits its only like 1/10 funny. I bet if they did the ****** Family skit everyone would act like that was offensive now too right? And that actually could have been seen as offensive just based on the white people saying that shyt nonstop for 5 minutes. I think its the new in thing to hate on K&P....they arent the first or last to make comedy that can appeal to both black & white people. They are just far from the best. I'll hate on them for being mediocre before anything else.

Funny thing is that they like to do slave sketches on their show from time to time, this one was probably the better one of them

"Yeah a pure and beautiful ...like, slice"



Yes this one works. Key and Peele are acting stereotypical house nikka for a reason and only drop it when the reenactors completely crack. Not everybody is gonna find it funny but it needed to be done.... and the fact their real mothers are white is delicious in this context.
