When you really think about it this kinda makes Otis’s life story all the more deep. He aspired to be an actor during his young life but unfortunately Hollywood did not want him to play any other roles than the ones showed here. Realizing the discrimination he was facing in show bizz he fought in the civil rights movement so that other people of color could have an actual chance at being actors. He fought so other people wouldn’t have their dreams crushed like he did.

No, it’s what they wanted black actors to do back then. It’s called skinning and grinning, shucking and jiving. It was a caricature of how they viewed black people.. very demeaning..
Carrier-Crow The ancient Irish did it as well. Also, the Vikings were well known for human sacrifice, which sometimes included children and upwards of a 100 people. What’s offensive is that it was a stereotype often told by racists, which goes along with the themes in the spoof (roles that black often took that were demeaning, but the only roles available.
@Carrier-Crow I really look forward to the day when everyone is fully aware that these categories we hold over ourselves aren't even scientifically sound. What's the point really?

I just recently learned about Paul Robeson, a black actor, singer, and civil rights activist who has largely been suppressed and forgotten because he was a communist. Apparently, he acted in films for a while but quit because he thought the roles for black actors were too degrading. I immediately thought of this and wouldn’t be surprised if he inspired this. Thankfully, I don’t think his old films surprised his family at his funeral though 😂
The problem with Robeson was Communism took precedence over the plight of black people. At least he's remembered. Folks have forgotten who TRM Howard was.
@@JK-gu3tl You mean the problem with Robeson was that he cared about people all over the world and not just those who shared his skin colour? He helped impoverished welsh miners that he met over in Britain, cementing a long-lived bond of respect. I suppose he should have left them with no help because they were white?
@@JK-gu3tl I don't necessarily think so, he was just supporting the only communist nation on earth at the time. Either way, seeing positives from the Stalin era (such as the defeat of the Nazis) doesn't automatically make someone a bad person .

Its offensive now because it sad that we had to act like that and still do in many roles now. I mean I was weak asf but I can see how some people would be offended.
A great example of how Key & Peele sketches are able to pack in deep meaning without getting in the way of the entertainment. ...

He ultimately starred in several westerns and that was how he truly got famous (for instance, the guy who actually gets a shot in edgewise during the opening gunfight in Once Upon a Time in the West).

@Carrier-Crow the reason he said hell naw..cuz he might be afraid that gives to some people the reason to judge and compare them to the tapes.....black folks dont like being compared to african tribes who practicr this...and also this is a comedic skit stereotype...so go easy.
Key and peele we're basically the only thing keeping comedy central alive other than the roasts so the network would just pour all their money into these sketches
Everything about this sketch is gold. From the heartfelt beginning to it's devolution into absurd awkwardness as each section of the reel gets progressively worse. And finally when the son tosses the reel into the coffin. ... And that laugh in the second scene of the reel as everyone looks on, horrified. 😂 The plot, cinematography and acting are top-notch! These guys are masters of comedy!
Every time I see Jordan Peele pulling off amazng comedy moments, I have to remind myself "this is a highly acclaimed HORROR FILM DIRECTOR". The range is astonishing
I wonder if Peele as a kid practiced different character's. He can get into so many different characters, it's kind of amazing...and the combined talent of Key and Peele is kind of amazing.
Honestly cant believe this was 10 years ago. I remember watching this on TV and it feels like it was not that long ago. Crazy how time just passes you by like that.
Did you see the smooth transition that came after it? From that guy shaking his head in disappointment to Peele shaking his head in excitement. These skits are better crafted than most blockbusters!
I dig the social commentary of it all, but honestly, I hadn’t laughed so hard in my recent life…JEEZUS, I think what MAKES it SO funny IS the pain behind it. But MY GOD, I was crying, choking, WHEEZING, literally CONTORTING i was laughing so hard! Thank GOD for laughter…
I don't know what's more hilarious...the irony of them making fun of the fact that Black Actors typically were confined to those roles during that time period... Or the implied notion that maybe Ottis was ashamed of his acting background....thus why no one knew he acted. 🤷🏾♂️ Naw....it was that pie scene

@Carrier-Crow the reason he said hell naw..cuz he might be afraid that gives to some people the reason to judge and compare them to the tapes.....black folks dont like being compared to african tribes who practicr this...and also this is a comedic skit stereotype...so go easy.

How he slipped the reel into the casket had me rollin
"I also do my own stunts." HILARIOUS
1:26 His facial expression is too much 😭😭😭
The face he makes at end of the laugh is priceless 😂 1:42
Haha
That was real pain behind the smile
Micki D that gets me every single time.
GET OUT
That is a look of pain
You can hear the pain in Otis laugh as shines the shoe 😔
1:40 you can really feel the pain in that laugh he gives at the end of that performance
I literally cannot stop watching this and completely losing it crackin up- to the point where I’m choking and crying.
Seriously where do they get all these extras ? They're all brilliant .
Key and peele we're basically the only thing keeping comedy central alive other than the roasts so the network would just pour all their money into these sketches
+Mohammed Hamza what about South Park and futurama reruns
+Eeyorez not comprable.
+orsetto81utube Umm..pretty sure South Park is much much popular than Key and Peele.
much popular doesn't mean better
1:47 there's the moment where you watch his dignity die!
Everything about this sketch is gold.
From the heartfelt beginning to it's devolution into absurd awkwardness as each section of the reel gets progressively worse.
And finally when the son tosses the reel into the coffin.
...
And that laugh in the second scene of the reel as everyone looks on, horrified. 😂
The plot, cinematography and acting are top-notch!
These guys are masters of comedy!
"I also do my own stunts" LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!
This has to be in their top 5 skits
I died at the “ooga booga shoo”
And the primal scream to kick it all off! Lol. Not to mention his cockeyed lips at the end. Hahaha. Had me convinced!
*OH HELL NO*
Aw hell naw
The main reason i keep coming back😂
I come back to this so often , the ‘blueberry pies’ line gets me everytime
Ben Connor Hahahaha same here! Ribbles
I actually didn't get that joke. Explain.
@@arion9696 just the delivery with his face, it is so absurd and always makes me laugh for some reason
That Agent Moshie Goldfarb is low key an amazing joke.
Why?
@@MasterChiefSpartan117 It's a Jewish name
His laugh at 1:42
I feel like I heard that laugh a lot, but can't put my finger where I actually heard it from.
Save the Rhino it was the stereotypical "negro laugh" that racist Hollywood producers wanted to perpetuate
Save the Rhino Peele laughed like that in in the Negrotown skit.
Looks like Jordan Peele had a lot of fun doing the "Hooga Booga".
1:15 when that music starts kills me everytime. never gets old
Every time I see Jordan Peele pulling off amazng comedy moments, I have to remind myself "this is a highly acclaimed HORROR FILM DIRECTOR". The range is astonishing
Real talk if I was at that funeral and saw that I'd be dying laughing.
Well....he's a good actor...
Eh, he's a bit flat.
I wonder if Peele as a kid practiced different character's. He can get into so many different characters, it's kind of amazing...and the combined talent of Key and Peele is kind of amazing.
Honestly cant believe this was 10 years ago. I remember watching this on TV and it feels like it was not that long ago. Crazy how time just passes you by like that.
"I also do my own stunts"
I'm done.
"Oh hell no!''
That shoeshine laugh was everything 😂😂😂
That strained laugh is just perfect.
When he said, "I haven't watched it yet", I knew we were f*cked! 😅😅😅
why these two havent made a movie is beyond me. they are the funniest comedy duo ever.
+silentbubba51 They are now. "Keanu"
+Kush Gohil Keanu indeed
They have a whole ass show tho
Evangelos Killer mike bruh I never said they didn't do a movie genius
Evangelos Killer mike you're not a killer named mike that's a fact😂😂 getting mad for no reason don't argue in key and peele comments bro sit down
1:34 The guy's Reaction 😂
LOL, for real. the utter disappointment and disgust in that mans face was too real😭
My favorite is the guy's reaction at 1:45 😂🤣🤣 He sat up like wtf 🤣
Did you see the smooth transition that came after it? From that guy shaking his head in disappointment to Peele shaking his head in excitement. These skits are better crafted than most blockbusters!
I dig the social commentary of it all, but honestly, I hadn’t laughed so hard in my recent life…JEEZUS, I think what MAKES it SO funny IS the pain behind it. But MY GOD, I was crying, choking, WHEEZING, literally CONTORTING i was laughing so hard! Thank GOD for laughter…
I don't know what's more hilarious...the irony of them making fun of the fact that Black Actors typically were confined to those roles during that time period...
Or the implied notion that maybe Ottis was ashamed of his acting background....thus why no one knew he acted. 🤷🏾♂️
Naw....it was that pie scene
