Thank you for giving me closure
One of the greatest t.v sitcoms in television history????? Who said that??? I wanna know who. Cause they didnt say that. Get ur head out ur ass. Martin was a very good show. But not worthy of a great sitcom. Silly rabbit. The chemistry was good but not out of this world good. Great television is good times, jeffersons, shows from the 70's. They were more real than most crap today.
I want them to finish the sitcom by doing a MARTIN movie
@@whutitdew713 how would it work without Tommy?
@@jswizzle29
It probably won't be successful, but give the "MARTIN" fans what they deserve
@@stevebarrera7698 *ONE OF* hey one *ONE OF*
I can understand the respect for Tommy, but imagine if Martin came back to TV and the 1st episode was a funeral for Tommy with a whole bunch of people showing up and Gina turns to Martin an whispers, "baby who are all these people?" Martin: "I don't know.....I didn’t know Tommy knew so many folk" Random Man walks up to Martin, shakes his hand: "How you doin man, our condolences" Martin looks Random man up an down: "uh thank you...you mind telling me how y’all knew Tommy?" Random Man: "Yeah we all from Tommy's job, we his coworkers" Martin: "co-workers? Looks at Gina, Gina’s eyes roll up an turns her head away, she mutters to herself “oh lord, please not here” Gina quickly tells Martin: “Martin? Baby....not HERE ok?! We not here for this, we here to pay our respects!” Martin whispers to Gina: “No, no damn that Gina, all these years of deception about havin a damn job?! This our last chance to find out what Morris Headnut did for a living Gina! Now dammit I will have closure. Martin looks back at Random Man an puts his hands up: “So tell me partna, y’all wouldnt happen to work at the unemployment office would y’all?"
That'll be soo hilarious
That’s actually very well scripted.
I could jus see and hear this scene in my head. Good job!❤
That's some good writing
Hit up Martin
Thursday Nights: Martin, Living Single, and New York Undercover!!
I remember those days coming from class n rush hm to a Blockbuster night on FOX
You took it back
Yes great times
David Seymour yesssssss, that was def the line-up
David Seymour those were the days
I dont care what anyone says MARTIN helped me out through hard times miss the good ole days...
AlexJUSSME Helped me too!!!!
I thought the show was corny and I was surprise it lasted so long

The most memorable moment from Tommy is when he said “I got the drawls dog” and pulled them out his pocket. I used to recreate that moment with my due rag with my friends in high school.
RIFICA777 😂😂😂
The character that kept me crackibg up back then was Shen nae nae! Those mannerisms and hair-styles were always talked about!
What does GTD stand for!!! lol
It’s never gonna be the same without Tommy
Tommy was the MAN.
TRUTH
Right
And thats why we'll never get to see them together in a sitcom again. Its okay tho. Some things are to stay as they are. They couldn't possibly eclipse the greatness of that show.
Same Here
That’s why they shouldn’t do a reboot.
In the 90s, TV shows were great. My favorite day of the week was Thursday. 8 Martin, 8:30 living single, and 9 New York Undercover. Uh memories.
hey we got stranger things and netflix now
Silk stockings too 😂
And no DVR so we lived for these moments and being at home for this segment!
Ikr👍🏾
Living Single was great! I was so excited to see Kim Fields back on a TV show! Fact of life! ;)
Leave Martin alone, a reboot or continuation won't be the same without Tommy.
Lies, he was the least needed character.
MalLa 225 You sound stupid as fuck & clearly not a Martin fan 😂 wtf
@@JaeThaGemini fr😪
Fox had a nice 3 piece. Martin, Living Single, and New York Undercover. I miss those days. I'm not sure if they have the same magic. That show captured a whole generation of people. Everything perfectly worked out.
Dominic Ene I miss those days too and the theme songs were enough to stop you in your tracks. Everything from start to finish was just poppin!
#Facts ...Me To Bro
Indeed it's sad that we don't have those type of shows anymore
really a 4 piece if you count In Living Color.
Bay watch , mamas family
"Passss the chicken wings Daaaawg"- Tommy
W
And the blue cheese daaawwwwg!!!!
tommy was the man
Martin (The show) still holds up today. Maybe the best black sitcom of all time.
Uncle Ben possibly correct , although SANFORD &SON would give them a run for their money. .
@@hiramvargas5005 The Cosby Show and Fresh prince are also up there.
martin the top 1 fasho .. ilike the jeffersons too lol
I don’t think it’s the best but it up there
@Uncle Ben don’t you mean best sitcom? It was better then a lot of the trash shows for it’s time and have you seen these shows lately ?
Show was pure gold, it'll can never be duplicated...
Man.. this tore me up. Rip Tommy.
Me also
You can watch this show today and it will still have you crying. Martin was something special
I Definitely Agree
Rest In Love Tommy! We will always love and miss you “dawg” *your voice* ❤️
and what was that DARKSKIN ...sista with the Big...OL'-*...Butt
Tht ain't no damn puppy!!!😂😂😂... Am I only one who seen Tisha's hoodie
No
That was on Chilligan's Island, Pam and Martin tamed his ass.
Yo when seen that shirt had my crackin up classic!
That episode was funny as hell
No
I think a 1 time reunion show would be good but not a whole sitcom with multiple episodes. This way we can get closure with the characters, pay tribute to Tommy & not do anything to mess up the legacy of the show anymore than the last season did.
Nisa J Well said
Great idea
My thoughts exactly; this way they won't take nothing away from the original concept of the show. A better closer of the show may add to the show's legacy.
Pam still Top 5 prettiest woman in TV history
Lmfao no Gina is, my light skin thick black woman way better sexier on better personality that pam, pam is sexy but no way compare to Gina
I love myself some dark chocolate Pam all the way.
U crazy if u think Gina look better than Pam lol. Pam was smokin hot . Gina was fine too thick and sexy smile and lips
gallantmon afro bro Gina looks good but Pam as a kid watching this show I use to say DAMN 😂
Pam ! Is way better looking women than Gina...just look her nowdays..still HOT !!!
I’m mad that this mentions nothing about Tisha Campbell’s and Martin’s affair early on in the series.... it just made it seem like he was desperate to have her..... also it didn’t state the fact that Tisha Campbell only sued the show after she was sued for breech of contract after she walked off during the 5th season.... now I’m not saying she lied about anything but damn this entire rhetoric was one sided.....
THANK YOU!!!!!💯💯 #Respect
I agree.
They had him so thirsty, he landed in the hospital for dehydration🤤🤤
Her husband was the real reason the sh*t went left Dwayne Martin was jealous and a loser oh and bi sexual
@@Chitownhomestead wait what really?
A reunion show where they all come back together in Detroit for Tommy’s funeral would be bomb....all the old cast come back we can even figure out Tommy’s job 😉
Your on to something they should consider your idea.
@IAMBK, That's a great idea!!!
That's a great idea. But go back and watch the very 1st season somewhere in the first couple of episodes Tommy revealed that he was a Counselor but then it was never mentioned again we forgot about it and "You ain't got no job" became classic. Tisha Campbell confirmed it on social media when Tommy passed away. But I agree they still could give us that too in a reunion
Out of respect for Tommy's fam, they shouldnt do conceptualize a show around his death...
That would be great.
Martin was a great show. I still watch the re-runs and enjoy them and laugh. Hope they create something together again. RIP Tommy.
Same Here
You never talked about "A Thin Line Between Love & Hate" how could you forget that movie in his prime?🤔
Love that one too... top cast with the late great Della Reese holding it down on the home front. Lynn Whitfield was also smoking. Happy memories of black America when you guys were exporting quality entertainment.
One of my favorite movies!
Actually Martin ended before it's last show and every true fan of the show could see somyhing was missing..The 💘 love was gone.
They should leave it alone. Won’t be the same no matter what they do. Reboot or a new storyline with different characters. The fans will hate to see them together without it actually having any connections to the Martin show we know & if they roboot the Martin show we know it wouldn’t be the same without tommy
I totally agree. Well said.
You rite DAAWWWGGG!!!!
It's weird to say that a group of talented people with maturity and proven chemistry shouldn't work together. All good things aren't just in the past. Judging by this video, it seems like 'Martin' the show barely had a chance to stretch its wings before it started dying from the inside.
Tommy got a job 💡
You have 200 likes
I almost cried the day martin went off the air
I did I ain’t all most shit I’m still piss it’s off air
THE BEST SITCOM EVER!!!!!!!!
@riikerman no just plain no .
@riikerman LMAO GTFOH
@riikerman Whats your beef with my profile picture of all things??
Thad lindor 😂😂😂😂
No Sanford and Son the best sit-com ever
RIP to Tommy!!!!
I remember watching Martin from start to finish faithfully....still watch the reruns. The last episode I watched when it aired, got teary eyes. Great show.
I think they should leave the show alone. If they want to do something new, they can go for it. Maybe it will be good.
I rented the whole 5 season box set from the library i have been binge watching all month😁😁.
RIP Tommy. I remember meeting him working at AMC theater in South Miami and he was super down to earth man. I remember asking him how he gon pay for the popcorn he ordered when he dont have no job. His laugh was genuine man i'll never forget that
I meet him in Dayton, Ohio he was not very nice to me and I have never met a stranger! He was a jerk to me! Not a nice man! My interaction with him!
Would like to see a video on moesha & how it ended so abruptly. That cliffhanger always made me mad
I've been mad about that since I was 12.
Aka Showtime yes this is much needed!!
Exactly, I feel the same way
It was just so damn irritating. Like who was pregnant?
Aka Showtime moesha duh
One of the funniest episodes was the Tommy Hearns fight!! When Martin came out of that room with those lumps all over his head, I died twice!!!!!! I miss the good ole days
My favorite line is "Gina are you alone? Are you sure?"
Martin voice:i don't wanna fight no more lol
"Can I get a bucket of fries, two chili's, and a bowl of sunflower seeds"😭😭😭
Who knew Almond Joy dude was the creator 🤯
Anyone that was a legit fan of the show
"Call me almond." 😮😆💙
I’m just like a peace of leather but I’m so well put toghter yo that shit was funny call me almond wtf 😂😂😂😂💀💀💀
I loved the dude who broke into his place just to make sandwiches lolol.. this show was just great..
Brah man from the 5th flow lol
"Nuttin'. Just chillin'" lol
Makin a sammach
Borrowed his CD player too. Great episode.
@@NORTH_CAROLINA played by Reginald Ballard he used to take showers too lol😁😁😁.
The 90's was truly a special and unique moment in TV history.
First off Comedy Hype your whole Delivery and Introduction in this vid is EVERYTHING!!!!🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
I miss Martin I've seen every episode about a hundred times I can recite the shows I seen um so much Martin was the show to watch after a long hard day or if u were sad smoke a joint and watch Martin
I say make into an hour long Netflix reunion special.
That is a good idea but there’d be complications
Yea they could talk about all the times Martin sexually assaulted one of his cast mates.
@@loverho5321 Like Tommy being dead
Chim , you love to throw up the past huh?!
Chim Ritchelds fake news
Sounds like he's saying Campbell's Soup and not Campbell's suit LMFAO.
I don’t care if it’s not gonna be the same I just like seeing them all on screen , whatever they make I’ll watch for sure , we miss you tommy 🥺🥺🥺
This is wrong wrong wrong FAIL. Martin was actually involved with Tisha Campbell but not in an official relationship with her so when she got with Duane she cut it off, Duane also told her I don’t want you around Martin because he knew Martin wasn’t going to respect their relationship. That lead to the groping incident being forced into action by Duane and it led to the end of Martin & Gina also why Duane doesn’t get along with Martin to this day,
FAX.
You're right. He and Tisha had been kicking it for years before she even met Duane. That's why the chemistry was already there naturally💯💯
i was waiting for someone to acknowledge the relationship between Martin & Tisha !
Correct
LANE PERFORMANCE LLC exactly
Martin always been fine.. I was so hurt on the last episode. He was so sad, and I cried like a baby! 💚 best show of all time!
I wish I could do crazy shit and they say I'm just dehydrated...lolololol.
Wendy Williams was "Dehydrated" too. Its what they always say when a celebrity cracks the matrix. Yet there were no drugs in his system. Hmmm
I remember when Martin was on the Arsenio Hall show and he said some real shit that was right on time...and after that appearance things started to change around him....
FACTS...he saw what was behind the scenes of Hollywood
I just realized the script writer was the "almond brown" guy
What for real
Sure is
Wow, never made that connection. Thanks!
Yes I noticed that. 😁😁
Lol yep aaaaalmondy brown had a bigger part in the show that people knew
Wasn't he yelling "they're trying to kill me" in the middle of the street
Yup...he didn't wanna be apart of that hellish Hollywood scene anymore
Well done piece. Expertly done: Beginning. Middle. End. Possible New Beginning. + Great images and graphics and quotes and transitions. Thanks. Keep it up.
“Imma call you almond joy” 😭😭😭😭😭 Bentley a 🐐
I really loved the show, but I say no reboot, create a new Martin or something related to Martin themes because without Tommy is not the same...
Damn Tommy? You passed and we still didn't know where you worked at? 😜😛😝😄👍👌🏆😍
Tommy was a stripper he worked at a strip club that's why he always talked about women
I know right.
I heard he was a counselor
He worked as a counselor with children. I forgot where they revealed it on. But if you recall the episode where Martin filled in as Santa Claus for the kids, that was the give away for what Tommie did for a living. He worked with children. Sorry for being the spoiler alert..lol.
@@aqueenofheart6632 That was volunteer work though🤣
It took the death of one to put their differences behind them, but without all of the cast members the show will never be the same
I can watch re-runs all day on BET. Definitely should bring something back.
Still watch it everyday ! My favorite episode is when he went to court for the speeding ticket and just lost him dam mind !!
They should do a Martin movie! Have a funeral or something in memory of Tommy (RIP Tommy) & bring back all the other characters
I don't think they should reboot Martin at all without Tommy it's not the same
Miss Lexi Baby fr
They gonna start off at a funeral
A movie would be cool or a single reunion show. Paying homage to Thomas Ford of course.
Tommy was a secret agent and died in the line of duty.... bringing the show back starting at the funeral!!!!!!!💯😍😊
Cause we all know Tommy ain't have no damn job!!!!🤣🤣🤣
That's a great way to take it though agent man...
Just leave it alone. That magic that made it an amazing show is gone. What's Martin without Tommy.
Carl put it best: Family’s sometimes fight. That’s all. Clear to see they’re all still amazing people. 💯💯💯
Only show I can repeatedly watch over and over
Martin! Had his moments or whateva Martin n the cast of Martin thank u guys for 5 season!
Should've been 4 seasons tbh , the fifth season felt different than all the others
@@Cj-hj6rm you're right, Martin went downhill after he and Gina got married and he stopped playing his characters.
@@josephclegg3562 yep
An I sinced the same with fresh Prince , later seasons everything was different an didn't feel the same as before ... Same with the Jamie Foxx show .
I like how u dismissed allegations of sexual harassment as "had his moments or whatever" SMH
Do a reunion show and call it quits. No reboots, no continuation. Just a reunion one time
AGREED
Classic comedy. The rebooted Roseann, why not Martin. No blk reboots on tv.😢😜
I love Gina's " That ain't no Damn puppy" Hoodie. From the episode when Martin and Pam we're fighting the Rat at the resort. dope
Grew up with this show. Loved it. RIP Tommy. I would love to see new episodes, but unfortunately, things can never be the same as they once were. Thanks for creating and posting this video.
Just got here to u.s.a up on release. I have a lot of fun watching it today. Unlike any group I am thrilled to here you are coming back. too much talent and chemistry to be thrown away. Good luck, I ll be waitting😉
I believe they should leave the show alone. It’s a classic, and it should stay a classic.
I remember reading Martin had bipolar disorder and stopped taking his medicine which didn’t help his behavior. I hope they do something together in the future. They had such great chemistry
Awesome clip! Thanks for sharing.
Thanx bro totally missed the opening monolog and you so cray
I will always watch Martin. Never gets old. 2019 and still watching reruns on a regular. Respect the fact they want to do something fresh with Tommy's passing but ultimately it seems like it'd be the same thing... unless they literally crafted a new show with completely different character personas. I suppose that's doable but fans would naturally want the growth of their Martin characters to make their return. Fans would understand and accept the Martin continuation but maybe it's just easier to bear the shift without Tommy by formulating something new. It's all good. Just bring the crew back and I'll be there to watch.
Rest In Peace tommy 😞✊🏾
I like that music playing in the background🔥🔥it really fits your videos perfectly
Love this channel Thank you !!!!
Very well done and in Great taste and respect. Thank you Black Man
Am I the only one who remembers where Tommy worked? 1 episode they followed him to find out that he was a runway model! Do your research peoples...
I remember them "GINA" and "PAM" on "LITTLE SHOP OF HORROR"....#Classic
Very informative. ..the show in its day was all everyone talked about around the water cooler or at lunch...MARTIN IS MISSED !!!!!MARTIN WAS LOVED AND APPRECIATED. ...
I was asking myself this question the other day. Thanks for dropping this!
I'm glad he patched things up with Tisha!!! He was really going thru it back then. Glad he came back on top!!!!!
Now that she got a divorce from her loser husband who messed everything up in the first place 😠
@@Chitownhomestead how’d you know if her husband was a loser? & how did he mess things up? Lol
@@shaorl67 I've seen a few documentaries om him. He was very jealous of Martins career and made her say those things thats why as soon as they divorced she reconciled w Martin
A one time reboot reboot episode, “Tommy’s Funeral”. More of a tribute show.
Mann i knew pam and gina were real friends there chemistry on set always seemed kinda real and they been in a few shows together
Cool story and narration young man. Well put together
Man I remember being shocked the show was being canceled. Martin was the face of Black tv at the time and yet appealed to other races as well.
Would be nice to have a reunion episode.
Martin Lawrence is one of the most underrated comedians ever.
Great video, great closure!
This show will never get old..... I still watch n crack up like its the 1st time❤
Thank you for sharing details of what really happened behind the scenes I never there were issues I did hear about Martin's personal outbursts but I didn't know it was that bad I hope that he got the help that he needed also I would love to see a new show if they decide to re do the show Martin 😊
It would be a delight to see the crew do a Martin movie 🎥. The sitcom was explosive but I believe a movie would be bigger. RIP Tommy
Thank you, this answered all my questions for why it ended and where they are now. Great mini documentary. Yes, I think a news show will be a great idea.
Straight and to the point! Love this!
I wonder how long "Martin" could've ran if it hadn't gotten cancelled after five seasons.
It would’ve got more worse
I always thought Pam should have been Martin girlfriend not Gina
I agree with u pam should me is girlfriend for real not gina
wonda that's why Martin was mad in season 5 because he's stuck with Bighead
That would have been so wack!! What made the show awesome was Tisha's and Martin's romantic chemistry and Tichina and Martin's arguing. That's why when Tisha left the show wasn't the same. Don't allow your love or dislike for someone cloud your logic.
I feel like I've needed these answers for YEARS!!! THANK YOU!!!!!
Thanks for the video, I am speechless after watching it. I'll update my comment when I can find my words. Great video keep em comin.
For some reason i can not find that Martin Lawrence SNL monlogue anywhere. Its like NBC scrubbed it from the internet. You got me curious as heck to see it now. lol
But i loved the Martin show growing up.
@Rellz Tv Thanks. :)
You can find it on Hulu...they have all the snl episodes
Sailor Mercury There isn't any footage of it anywhere, but I remember watching it live. He started with a routine about Lorena Bobbitt chopping off John Bobbitt's thing. He then segued into a routine about women not washing their ass, basically the same routine from You So Crazy, where he talked about going down on a woman and finding out she has a yeast infection. He did the same routine on SNL but without the cursing. He even finished it with the same line from the movie, "This look like a good place for a Stick-up!" That routine is what got him banned from NBC.
JBiz80 did the routine work live? Was he getting laughs?
Neodobby good question my nigga
One of my fav shows! Takes me back to the 90's! It's a shame all of the drama took place, I remember a lot of it. He really liked Gina... It was unfortunate.
I never really knew any of the inner story of that show, though I did hear about Martin having a crazy-in-public incident back then because he talked about it for about half of a feature-length concert video, and that video was the last I saw of him for quite a while aside from a movie or two. This all reminds me of two things at once: Brett Butler had a show around that time which similarly self-destructed due mostly to the star's behavior, and using a comedy concert as a place for extended discussion of one's own legal and personal issues reminds me of Lenny Bruce. It's inspiring to see that Martin has made amends with his co-stars because everybody on that show contributed to the chemistry. It may have been called 'Martin' but the chemistry of the cast is what made it possible for Martin to have a great showcase for his talent. Creation of the platform for the talent to shine is a highly underrated skill. I would love to see them work together again, especially knowing that they are more mature and seem to have mutual respect instead.
Big ups to you... Very informative learn alot respect my gee
The fifth season is trash..... Martin was phoning it in, the chemistry wasn't the same, it just fell flat and if it kept going it would only be worse. I wouldn't mind seeing a reboot but i hope people wont expect the exact same show cause it wouldn't be the same. Its a different time and they are all older.
I agree. I didn't like the 5th season, after gina left, it wasn't the same
@Rellz Tv Gina was gone for good lil bit and they only showed her sporadically throughout and her final scene she wasn't in any scenes with Martin
@@zleo7054 she was in 1 or 2 scenes on a few episodes they did the best they could
Very true!
It was a great show for its time/in its time.
The Reboot of Martin is not going to be nothing without Tommy
My Number #1 sitcom, Good times is now #2...
Thank you so much for this, frfr
I love your work this is my second time watching this
