The Best of Eddie Murphy: Saturday Night Live (Unrated Version)

Eddie Murphy's recent movies (apart from his Oscar-nominated turn in "Dreamgirls") almost make you forget the comic brilliance of his "Saturday Night Live" period. Regrettably out of print, this compilation includes many of Murphy's funniest sketches from the 1981-84 seasons. Buckwheat, Velvet Jones, Mr. Robinson and Little Richard Simmons are back in all their glory — not to mention Eddie's on-target impersonations of Bill Cosby, Stevie Wonder and Jesse Jackson. The "James Brown Celebrity Hot Tub" skit is priceless, but there's no Gumby, dammit! Still, the Paramount video remains far superior to the botched DVD version.

This VHS version is unrated and includes many skits that were removed from the DVD version. Maybe someday this version will be available on Blu-ray, but until then, it is best to break out the VCR and watch this version. It is absolutely worth it.

Awesome!! I Had This And Lost It In The Process of Relocating Years Ago,And Have Been On The Hunt Since Then.! It's Pure Hilarity,Worth The Wait, It Arrived On Delivery Date And In Perfect Condition!!

The best of Eddie Murphy will have you laughing out loud! This is a true classic by the one and only Mr. Eddie Murphy. I love all the skits from the good old days of Saturday Night Live especially Buckwheat!

Great Quality and packaging

I didn't want to give this any astars since the Best of Eddie Murphy was not the movie I received. Thanks for nothing. Some other movie was in the cover for Eddie Murphy.

Grab the VHS ...i just got mine and it looks like it was never played before....so so so great and funny...LOVE IT :o)

Awesome. I pretty much grew up on this video. Great to have it back in my life.
