Ahhhh....90′S TV!!! NOTHING BETTER!!! I remember the opening to this show. The song was AWESOME! You couldn’t help but sing along. 5 year old me walking around in My Little Pony pj’s rapping the In Llving Color opening... What a time to be alive! The show was just cool, colorful, & I always wanted to be part of the cast. They just seemed fun! In Living Color hit our TV screens today imn 1990 & it introduced us to so many of our favorite celebs! The skit show ran from April15, 1990 until May 19, 1994. It was originated by one of the Wayans Brothers, Keenan Ivory, who brought his family along for the ride. Unlike other sketch comedy shows like Saturday Night Live, whose cast was mostly white, In Living Color was the first to have a cast made up of mostly black actors. Other members of the Wayans family such as Damon, Kim, Shawn, and Marlon, had regular roles. The show also starred several previously unknown comedians and actors, including Jamie Foxx, Jim Carrey, Tommy Davidson, David Alan Grier, and T’Keyah Crystal Keymáh. The show introduced Jennifer Lopez and Carrie Ann Inaba as members of In Living Color’s dance troupe The Fly Girls, with actress Rosie Perez serving as choreographer.
