hammerva Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 I am shocked that he was still alive given how wild he was on and off stage. If you aren't a fan of Gene Gene the Dancing Machine I don't know what happened to you as a kid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(BP) Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 I never really watched his shows, but boy did he know how to write explicit sex stories in whatever the hell those spy books were. And he wrote Palisades Park, which is a jam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kill! If You Live, Shoot! etc. A star of the cruelest of Italian cinema. RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.T. Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I heard about Charlie this morning and am totally bummed. I never failed to catch him at the Richmond Funny Bone and just recently saw him on tour here in MD at the Royal Farms Arena. RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Just on the basis of being genuinely respected by almost everyone reputable in the comedy world, you have to love Charlie Murphy. Also, just the Shalamar related portion of the Prince THS sketch should get him props for eternity. "Yo, Shalamar got a new girl in there, man, that bitch fine like a motherfucker." "Micki Free is not a girl." Rest in Power, Charlie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianS81177 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I hope when Charlie Murphy gets to the afterlife the first thing that happens is Rick James jumps in front him, yells "CHARLIE MURPHYYYYY" and punches him in the forehead. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig H Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I teared up at work a couple times thinking about it, but for anyone interested in Charlie Murphy, I suggest checking out how he got into the stand-up comedy game. A little bit of the reverse of what Patton Oswalt is going through now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 I just found out about this via Facebook and am crushed. RIP, Charlie. Why the fuck is Comedy Central not playing Chappelle right now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
