While in-studio he opens up about how he scored that role - but wait 'til you hear how he instantly got a part in the Eddie Murphy classic, Coming To America. It all started after he picked up Eddie's $600 tab at a restarant... and rest was history.

RIP Louie , real professional , and funny as hell. We will miss you .
Truly Under Rated!
💯
Man, I really wish they hadn't remade that movie.
Man Louie killed this interview! I’m so sad that I won’t be able to get to meet him and talk comedy! RIP Louie Anderson!
I don't understand HOW it's possible to not love Louie Anderson
I have never heard anyone say a bad thing about Louie. Whether you liked or disliked his comedy, it didnt matter ... everyone loved the human being.
@@piteusx8440 Anthony Cumia definitely said a few things but that guy is an asshole.
Yes too funny !!
One of the most effortlessly-funny people ever born.
That man is cut from a different cloth. Funny, nice, and a class act.
Life with Louie. Great cartoon.
It's 1 of the Greatest Cartoons 💯 Peridot!!!
@@emmathea1 it was a very underrated cartoon and funny.
RIP Louie. As coincidence would have it I saw him at the Comedy Store a few years ago. He didn't look in great health then but the standing ovation he got when he took the stage, my goodness. Everyone was so happy to see him. Glad I got to be in a room just 20 feet away from this man toward the end of his life.
I almost died with the mesothelioma joke. Not joking. I couldn’t breath. I had to stand up. Louie made me laugh out loud at 2:24 am in Texas. 🤣😭🤣
Texas here too. Louie Anderson RIP.
"Now I have it " LMAO BRO
@beep boop I thought about taking this on, beep boop and you have me thinking. Texas is a big State and we just want to let channels know that they are appreciated in Texas, I guess. Speaking for myself, (all of my kids are grown, so I'm old), at this time I am being welcoming to people who have been disrespected and abused by their Governors and want to relocate to enjoy being an American again. Hope all is well with you, beep boop. 🙂
@beep boop I just wrote it because that was where I was. Think of it as a world time stamp. Nothing more.
@@denisejustdenise I love being in Texas. I don’t agree with the politics, but I would never move. This is my home, and I will continue to vote here until change occurs. 🇺🇸
so fucking devastated to hear about louie's passing. people like him are one in a million. rest in peace
Instead of going to the doctor I watch these people. Laughter best medicine. Rip Louie. Comedy legend and royalty.
You're absolutely right. I had to take a year off work, major breakdown. Norm MacDonalds humour helped me immensely. Better than the drugs the docs gave me. RIP to these funny, brilliant legends
This is why Sway is the GOAT. Much respect to the whole show.
Louie is the bomb. Many blessings to him and sway in the morning
I met Louie Anderson before and he was absolutely wonderful! Rest in peace Louie we miss you
When Louie coughed and said "now I've got it" I fell out my chair! Golden
This dude has been funny a LONG fucking time!!
is that hack gonna remake it?
Louie the universe was showing off when you were made.
Louie you are hysterical.
You will be missed.
Australia 2022
I watch Harlem nights all the time, to watch Della and Eddie box it out. Love it!! Rest easy Louie ❤️
So you gonna shoot me in my pinkie toe
Love how Louie can bring people together.
Man i listened to this interview multiple times since it released in 2017. I remember Louie was doing a lot of promotion for Baskets. I’m so sad to learn he passed away in January. I used to wake up early on weekends to watch the cartoon Life with Louie. I’m almost 29 and Louie was always a favorite of mine. I loved when he hosted Family Feud too.
I use to love watching camp candy and life with Louie as a kid!
one of my favorite host of Family Feud...and i used to watch his cartoon. funny dude.
RIP Louie YOU WILL BE MISSED...
Had me dying laughing the whole time much love to Louie maaaan 😂😂😂
He called it with playing a part in Coming to America 2
It was awesome seeing all the people who came back for the sequel.
It was awesome to see Louie again, thank you for this, he was one of a kind.

Louie Anderson a truly amazing man
OMG the coughing! Could you imagine in 2022 coughing like that around people? But goddamn Louie was funny. RIP
I'd have been uncomfortable in pre-pandemic times, but covid took it up a few notches 🤣
You people need to swap some spit and live life
RIP to a GOAT.
Gotta love Louie. 💜
His cartoon was a highlight of my Saturday mornings
louie is such a sweet precious soul
a good, funny and positive guy. love him.
it's amazing to see someone who has the power to captivate an audience, and is able to command the right for the listener to just listen. this is great, and we will always remember Louie anderson.
classic! i was a kid when louie's cartoon came out and I still laugh when his character got hit by a snowball in the head and he started limping . also, it goes without saying- Coming To America.... classic!!!
Trading places! Wait, I love that movie.
Love Louie!! ❤️❤️❤️
this guy is really funny y'all 😂😂😂
16:35 Classic! He was a gem. I didn't realize he focused on a clean act. Great free flowing convo; glad he went back and answered DB's question. May he rest in peace and honor.
“I need a trumpet or something.” Total dead face… Goes back in time like that so fast! Glad I lived when he did.
Life With Louie On Fox Kids What Ever Happened To That Show I Remember Watching That Back In 90's Every Saturday Mornings #90sBaby
Rip Louie so talented so funny
I forgot how funny Louie is
I’m white and I love Harlem Nights. “He shot my toe off!”
Classic!!
Same here
He shot me in my pinkie toe!
"Kiss my ENTIRE ass!" Della Reese was the best! "Who left just a swalla o' orange juice??"
Heck ya great movie, and I'm whiter then snow😂😂
Love Louie Anderson - Funny, funny !!!!!
M night shaminanima....shaminanmahhh omg im crying Louie is hilarious
Love you Louie! RIP!❤
Mane look how ol boy took up for Steve Harvey like that was his ride or die or some shit...mane I really hope more of our own people can replicate that kind of action instead of waiting for the best opportunity to throw each other under the bus in those moments
And also perhaps be fair and good to others
14:15... God, he's the best. I wish I lived next door to Louis... as long as it wasn't in "The Projects".
God, then he's so nice to him....15:10
RIP to an amazing human
Louie is still hilarious
A transcendent talent who made US ALL laugh… RIP Sir
This man said his name sounded like it should come with a trumpet!! Comedic genius!!!😂😂
Love Louie. I have seen him live. Hilarious
Awesome interview!
Man I hope he's in the new Coming To America.
My Dad grew up with him in the Phalen neighborhood and went to Johnson with him. They hung out as kids. Like 40 years later Louie was doing a show at Mystic Lake Casino and my Mom and Dad went to see him. Louie spotted him and went up to him after the show ans talked with him about the old gang like those 40 years of Fame never happened....Midwest folks are different❤
Watching this in the COVID era, that cough makes me shudder every time. Great stories.
Dr. SHEEPLE ovah here
Great show and great interview!
I love him when I was a kid especially on Bae Bae kids
I found a new show to listen to. Thanks, Sway!
LOVE THIS!!!!
"I See Dead Roast Beef... People" 🤣🤣🤣Love you Louie RIP
yo that's chips Mom from Baskets 😂😂
this guy funny as hell
this is to funny me! I love this interview
5:29 /5:55 I'm dead 😂 😂 😂 😂 💀
that m night bit...crying😂😂😂😭😭😭
Great interview, Louie.
You are really a good human and humorist.
His line in Coming to America about the lettuce was one of my favorite in the movie. The 2nd C2A was horrible.
this was funny....good job I like the way u flip it sway
I don't care who you are, Coming To America is Top 3 comedy movies of all time!
Louie!!
Omg the ending had me rolling!!!
Best mash up ever! Shade45 and Louie!!
life with Louie, Louie, Louie! I'm probably one of the only black people that loved that cartoon! lol
Not true! If you were a kid in the 90s that shit was automatic. All the voices he did were fire! Classic cartoon. He basically did the Bernie Mac format first with a cartoon
Love Louie !
"A lean coughdrop." Oh my God, I died!
@Meadow Pinkelle "Lean" is slang for drinking cough medicine to get intoxicated. It's usually mixed with juice or something.
Louie Anderson talking about leen is not something I thought I needed to hear but I really needed to.
I thought this nigga was dead. Im 30 years old so I remember coming home from school and watching "Life with Louie", that was a good cartoon.
FIRSTNAMEMARKO i'm 7 years younger. That show was the best.
He’s dead now.
louie, hilarious and classy.
I'm white & fucking love Harlem Nights. Redd Foxx is one of my favorite comedians of all time.
Louie killed it here.
"Big Ass Underwear! One "pair" per package!"
Bwhahahhahahaha!!! #LoveLouie!
~Queen~
@ 16:27 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 " and now i have it "
16:27 that was a great quick think joke.
😂😂😂
watching this in 2022; it’s funny to see someone coughing next to people and no one is freaking out. this is way before covid and such a simpler / better time.
"I'm good til 2020" if only everyone knew
Everone loves Louie!
1901 haha. Louie is a g.
What I'm surprised about most is that Eddie Murphy's bill was less that $700 for that place.
He said it was in the 80s so it that was a lot back then.
$1600 in todays currency
Im white and italian irish and native American and harlem nights is one of my favorite movies of all time
His cartoon was awesome! “Lougee”
Louie is the man
Louie was a nice guy! May he rest in peace!
