He suffered throughout his shortened life, yet still found time to make us belly laugh. He was a gifted comedian who was denied the best in life because of demons that haunted/bothered him during his adulthood. The man was an 11 outta 10 in my book for funny people, thanks for the laughter RP👌👏🥇👍🤣

Great documentary. American music artiste, Morris Day, of "Morris Day and The Time," in an interview he gave on Breakfast Club 105.1 FM, New York City, USA, partly described legendary American music artiste and music producer, Prince (RIP), as follows: "He came through here like a hurricane." The same can be said of Richard Pryor. Thanks for this great documentary, PBS America. Regards, Michael M. Kamau, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, 30th May 2024.

One of the realist, if not the most real and honest human being to ever live. Richard laid bare for all of us. Love this man. Happy I got to see his work when he was alive ❤

The young Richard Prior reminds me of Jerry Lewis, not Bill Cosby.

Billy Connolly will always be the best. But Pryor is a genius followed by Eddie Murphy

Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder, right?🙂Same with everything else in life, actually, including comedy and music, which is why Don Rickles is King for you, as regards comedy. Nothing wrong with that🙂Regards, Michael M. Kamau, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, 30th May 2024.
