Description

On today’s episode from December 26th, 1987, we spend time with Siskel & Ebert and two comedy legends, Robin Williams and Eddie Murphy. Both Good Morning, Vietnam and Eddie Murphy Raw were huge hits that year and were built around their stars’ personas, further cementing Williams and Murphy as two of the biggest stars of the decade. Do their brands of humor hold up all these years later? Can topical humor from back then work today? We get into all that as well as a Bill Cosby movie that most certainly does not hold up. We also look at a movie with a much different vibe starring Christine Lahti.
