The 80s were an awesome time to grow up in

The world is lesser without Rodney. Always my favorite comedian

In the 80's every guy did lines from Dice 🤣🤣🤣

I saw this the night it aired. Dice Clay was a phenomenon back in the 80s. He packed stadiums...not clubs, stadiums.

Rodney helped Dice, Jim Carrey, Tim Allen and many more. Thanks Rodney, you have my respect.

Back when America had balls and swagger, and people could take a joke.

I was 13 when this came on TV. My dad left iHBO on and i saw this. My mind was blown….classic! Long Live Diceman

Haven't seen this since I was a kid. Laughed so hard like it was yesterday. God I miss the 80s!

Rodney Dangerfield is easily one of the best comedians in history! RIP

I saw Rodney Dangerfield live back in the 80's. He told jokes non-stop for 3 straight hours. My sides ached for 2 days from laughter. There will never be another like him. True legend!

I have seen this 100 times never gets old.

I was in my mid 20’s when Dice first became a star,he was so different from other comedians and became a huge mega star, and me and my friends loved him.

This ladies and gentlemen is the one and only time you will see this act without the crowd finishing the lines.

You gotta give him one thing... he had the room in his hand

Banned from MTV. Brilliant and talented comedian. Great actor and writer as well.

ADC is still and forever be “The King of Comedy”!! 🎭🙏🏻

Wow, I remember classmates in high school quoting Diceman back in the 80's while at our lockers. Memories....

Saw him live in 1988, he tore the audience up, we loved it! 🤣😂

Such a wonderful and beautifully wholesome man.

The younger generation wouldn't understand. But we love this guy.

I love his whole demeanor. He’s a great character actor.

I loved Dennis Miller’s assessment of Dice: “He’s Fonzi with Terrets”

What made Dice Dice was his playing off the crowd. Dude is a master improviser.

Proud to have grown up seeing these specials.

I remember watching this the first time it aired. Me and my friends nearly fell off the sofa we laughed so hard. I miss the Dice Man.

The 80's was a helluva drug... know what I'm sayin'?

The day the laughter died part 2 is one of the best pieces of comedy of all time! I still listen to it regularly! ❤️🙌🏻

I remember watching this when it was on tv. Love Rodney and The Dice man!

Greatest comedic debut ever. Never will forget the night this special aired and the Diceman came on. Could not stop laughing. Star is born.

I remember seeing this for the first time.. Him and Sam kinison.. Those were good days

Diceman sold out Madison Square Garden back when I was a kid. Hard to believe how sensitive these newer generations got.

I actually watched this when it originally aired on HBO. I was 10 or 11 at the time. I watched these comedy specials on HBO constantly. Rodney's specials like this were amazing. I was introduced to Dice, Steven Wright, Bob Nelson, Rita Rudner, Robert Townsend, the late, great Bob Saget, the late, great Sam Kinison, so many of the legendary comedians of the era. Between Rodney's specials and the Def Comedy Jam, it was a golden age of stand-up.

Imagine if ADC had hosted the Oscars this year?! The whole audience would have been in a bar fight.

“After ten minutes it gets boring ya know? That’s why I wear a Walkman” 😅😅

The Dice MAN! In HS we used to watch the VHS all the time. LOL Always hilarious. Wish he was still doing what we STILL love.

This what I miss about America. We never used to get offended by things and everything is fair game when it comes to Comedy. I remember seeing this live, I was stoned, loved it then Still Do. Thank You Mr. Dangerfield, love your stuff please keep up the great work.

This was back when comedy was legal.

As someone born in 1990, I never really listened to The Dice Man, but my parents loved him, but sent me to bed when he was on TV. This was in my recommended and is my first time truly sitting down and listening and I am hysterical!!! I envy those who got to enjoy him when he was big, but also when you could make jokes about anything and anyone and people laughed...because it was a joke. Wow.

I agree comedy back then was the greatest. I got a chance to see him years later. And he was so hilarious live.

Man these were the days!!! The days of Cheers, the Goonies (when child actors could act), Police Academy, Delirious, The Burbs. The 80s was beyond brilliant 💯

Miss him and Sam Kinison so much. Both unforgettable masters of degradation humor. Fantastic!

I love how he comes in hot with nursery rhymes. 😂

ADC was a character comedian. He was personally the exact opposite in real life. From what ive found out, he was a genuine man and a good person. He filled a spot in comedy history that will NEVER be filled again, just like Dr Dirty. Enjoy it for its perspective and humor, and dont take it personally. Be well my friends😁

Dice owes a lot to Rodney.RIP Rodney.

This kid has potential. He should try doing universities. UC Berkeley maybe. I think he’d kill up in Portland too. They would LOVE this type of comedy.

I actually recorded this on a VHS tape back the eighties one of the best comedian shows ever That's an understatement

You're getting ALL the respect and more now Mr Dangerfield 🙏🏽

This is the America I wish we where in

I watched this the night it premiered. We laughed our asses off. We had watch parties for Rodney's Young Comedians and the Mike Tyson fights.

And everyone survived. Let's bring back the comedy!

I first heard Dice in 88 or 89 thanks to my older brother. I was 12 or 13. He killed it then, still killing it in 2023!

The FIRST TRUE KING of REALLY Dirty Comedy... Over the TOP back in that Day. 👍

Glad i was alive then. 1980's. The best.

"little boy blue, he needed the money" 😂

I'll never forget catching Dice's stand up special on cable when I was a tween. It was REALLY late night and I felt like I was really getting away with watching something dirty. I even convinced my mom to buy me his comedy albums on cassette.

Now comedy is in the “please don’t cancel me” box😢

Rodney helped a lot of young comedians out. The Dice Man and Tim Allen funny as hell in different ways. There will never be another Rodney Dangerfield I'd start laughing when he walked on stage and still be laughin at something he said the next day.

I remember this moment, Andrew Dice Clay's flame burned bright for only a short time but it was great.

The 80s awesome time there will never be a time like the 80s people were real .

These are priceless thanks for sharing this video 😂

"It's a three piece act, bitch" haha Him and Sam Kinison were absolute legends to me as a kid.

The silent mannerisms are the best part of the act.

Ahhh I love watching the old sets of any great comedian... Makes me see where I get all the little bits of my personality I have now as a married adult when my wife wonders where it all came from. 😅

Now days that would never fly.I love the dicemans comedy.

When Brooklyn had balls instead of hipsters..

"What are we backing a truck in here!?" 🤣 I'm dead

The Diceman... oh yeah! We need more like this 🙏 👏

I was walking my elderly sick mother in-law up the ramp to the airplane in Reno. Right behind us was Andrew Dice Clay and his entourage. I glanced back at him to see the look of exasperation on his face as we took tiny little steps all the way up the ramp. I chucked to myself seeing this bad ass looking crew all hyped up in black studded leather jackets, pants, and boots, with hair all greased back taking tiny little steps all the way up the long ramp. But they did not utter a word and were quite polite.

This was a revolutionary performance. You can tell there were a few in the audience who were just mortified. Others laughed their asses off because they just thought it was funny and they didn't care that it was crude and offensive. I am part of that crowd!

We need to get back to this place. If we can't make fun of each other, we're screwed. this guy used to fill stadiums.

Had the honor and pleasure seeing THE DICE MAN live!!! Laughed so much and so hard my ribs hurt for over a week!!!

love it. the dice man was hilarious.

I had no idea the 80's would be the best decade ever.

He was rude and crude, totally politically incorrect, and funny at the same time. Today he would be burned at the stake for his humor. The 80s was a totally different time in America. I'm glad I experienced it.

When I first saw this on HBO in 1987 I laughed so hard that I missed a lot of his jokes, it took two more times watching it to hear it all.

I saw that Rodney special, man it was great. So many big names nowadays they were just starting then.

This set could not be done in 2018

This is when the KZfaq algorithm gets it right.

I love his nursery rhymes!

Dice was a truly unique act when he landed on the scene. He’s still the most extreme comedian I know of. It’s a great reminder that a free society means the right to express ourselves even when it’s sure to offend people. Everything will offend someone. Likewise, those people have the right not to listen. I’m worried about the censorship today as it’s a slippery slope with no end to it.

It was really Redd Foxx who introduced "Dice" on his comedy special. "Dirty Dirty Jokes," in 1983.

not that anyone's asking for it, but that's exactly why diceman is the comedy we need today especially.

Can we go back to these days please? How did we get to where we ended up

Had the great fun of going to 'Dangerfields' back in the mid 80's. Even the warm up guys were good. Jackie Mason performed as the headliner that night. So good.

I remember recording this at 15 on VHS ( yeah I'm that old) off of HBO. And after Dice performed my mind was blown. Dude was saying stuff I'd never heard before. Stuff that definitely wouldn't fly today. I still have his whole routine memorized. What a great special. I still remember the other comedians who were on the bill. The late Bill Hicks, Carol Leifer, Lenny Clarke, Barry Sobel and Dom Irrera. Great memories.

He's definitely old-time hysterical I miss those days

80s flashback. Rodney, I understand now, I get no respect either. Thank you so much for all you did lifting the mood. I wore out three VHS tapes watching back to school. The guy at the video store finally just went ahead and bought me one, so I quit watching there's as much. Dice, if you still alive, can't count how many times I've been cussed for flicking open a Zippo, thank you very much for the laughter. Sadly they didn't carry but one copy of yours, and there was a month-long waiting list on it. It wore out or didn't get returned before I could see it more than a few times.

A mink coat that doesn't need a hanger, lol. This guy was king when I was a kid.

Transport me back to this time. It was so fun and careless. I'll let the medical field know about what's coming up in 2020.

I remember seeing this live and thought it was cutting edge - today it's more like cutting room floor.

Waaay ahead of his time. I can't imagine the balls it takes to try this at this time. 👌 I remember watching this as a small child. My family was real. Repect for the dice man.

Best VHS comedy tape I ever had!.It had this special,Robin Williams live at the met,and a Bob Cat Goldwait stand up all on one 6 hour tape.Amazing!!

Amazing! The delivery, the act! Love it. It all goes to show, it's not what you say, but how you say it. Great lesson for all comedians

I love every second of this. Dice is King!

I remember this and it made history! This was his first debut and he nailed it!! I remember the next day my friends were talking about it like crazy in school! He was the funniest one on the show that night. He was dressed like a tough guy saying nursery Rhyme jokes....too funny!

Can you imagine a comedian with a routine like this today????

Rodney Dangerfield was an absolute masterpiece/masterclass of a hilarious comedian/comedic actor, and a man amongst men! Comedy awesomeness!

Stumbled across this by accident. I'd never heard of him before. Much respect from London. That was funny 🤣

Rock-a-bye Baby on the treetop don't look at me kid, I ain't ya pop My personal favorite dice nursery rhyme

A lot of people hated Andrew Dice Clay but a lot of people also hated Red Fox and I loved them both
