Robert Townsend: Partners in Crime, Vol. 2
I bought this DVD for my brother, and he seemed to be extremely happy with the DVD. Thank you for sending the product quickly and making sure the DVD was unharmed in transit.

It was much better to me when it first came out
It was much better to me when it first came out, still good but as you grow, somethings just aren't funny anymore. My favorite parts where The Bold, The Black and The Beautiful, The guys doing the Birds rendition and old Karate movies, Franklin Ajaye was still funny!

Great
Brought back many old memories. Only two more to collect. Humor is somewhat raw, but I just like seeing the old comedians together with the up and coming crowd.

I love it but there is a skit missing
I remember seeing this in the late 80's when I was a tween but the skit that's missing 1-800-POOP. They should of had it on here, because I was watching this with my family and we were looking for it. But we still had a lot of laughs especially seeing "The Bold, The Black, The Beautiful"
