I lived in the pj’s y’all know Bae Bae kids is always in there. And I happen to live one floor under their apt. We all call them Bae Bae kids. It ‘s many things to share about that family. But I got to share this I was in therapy. Somebody was throwing rocks at the window. And my therapist always carried himself as a professional. He looked out the window and said Oh that's just Bae Bae’kids. Oops I'm sorry I should not have said that! I Love that man sense. I even came early or on time at least. Rest in wonderful peace ✌️🏼 gone to soon.

I got that "We don't Die we multiply" DVD. Bernie Mac was there that night backstage in Chicago we Robin did his last stand up show, and actually he was suppose to open up for him but it was a issue with another comedian and Bernie didn't get to do it. But Bernie said Robin tore the roof off that night, said he had people falling out of their chairs laughing etc. It's amazing that the King of Comedy got to see the King of Comedy before him for the last time that night. Rest in Paradise to them both 🙏

Thank you for paying respect to Robin Harris! He was one of the best Comedians ever. May He rest in Peace!!

This man killed my back... I was resting from a herniated disc and was in the bed watching Mo' Betta Blues. When he jumped on Denzel and Wesley arguing and told Denzel "Head look like a QUESTION MARK!!" Dammit MAAAAAANNNNN!! Uncontrollable laughter and my back kept spasming... I've never been in so much pain while laughing!! I tried to drive back to college in Columbus, OH from VA in 1992 when I got a copy of his stand-up concert... 10 minutes in, I had to pull the car over on I-81... The tears in my eyes from laughing so hard rendered me unable to drive! I tried to recover and go on, but I had to pull the tape out in order to continue my trip! Boy had me dying laughing!!! RIP to Robin Harris, and thank you for the contributions you left us with!! Timeless!!

I was too young to appreciate his comedy. Now that I’m older, the comedy world really lost a great one❤

Robin Harris has a nephew Shawn Harris who looks more like him than his son. He does comedy too and he's pretty funny. He sounds like him and tells jokes like him.

Underrated talent. Can't believe how young he was at his passing. He was hysterical. May Robin Harris be at peace he is truly missed.

I'm glad I'm glad that the people who did House party put Robin Harris in the movie a house party one as kids father because he was the right man for the role 🤣🤣🤣 and he took house party to another level

Yes he would've been the comedian running the 90's if he never died

He shot a couple of unaired pilots before he passed. I would like to see that footage one day!

This is the story i’ve been waiting for. Thank you so much. Robin Harris is comedy’s biggest what if. He was next in line to become one of greats. Spike Lee said the cast of Mo Better Blues would come in on their days off just to see Robin Harris tell jokes. Can we please get stories on other comedians such as Reynaldo Rey, AJ Johnson, Ricky Harris, Bernie Mac, Lawanda Page, Charlie Murphy, Patrice O’Neal, Paul Mooney & John Witherspoon?

Robin, is greatly greatly missed and loved. I'm still speechless that he passed away 30 years ago. Thank you for the memories, movies and comedy shows, Robin. God bless his wife and son. Rest Easy, Robin. 💎🤍🕊️🙏🏽🕊️🙏🏽 My favorite comedian. Hello, my CU family I pray that everyone is doing good and staying safe and warm.

I just almost crashed in traffic when I got the notification (but I'm still alive tho)!

I watched House Party a million times too lol! He was sooo funny in that movie. I always like to rewind his parts.🤣🤣 RIP ROBIN HARRIS

It's funny that you said. Stevie sat in the front... Thats just confirmation to the rumors that Stevie could see. I think Bernie Mac was the closet you ever get to Robin Harris lol.

Man!! This was my man right here!! He had me cracking up in House Party. Keep up the good job man. ❤️

I loved watching them. Lester was so funny

I remember watching him as a little kid in the late 80s. And I always wondered was he sick. Just something about his eyes and the way he breathed while talking made me, in a child's mind, think he was sick. So when I heard he had died I thought about how sick he seemed to me. So sad to find out just how sick he really was without anyone, including himself, ever knowing until it was too late. Rip Robin Harris😓💔

Thank you for this! I first saw Robin Harris on the Robert Townsend comedy specials back in the day. I go back & watch those specials on you tube. Still funny as ever! RIP Robin Harris🕊🕊

Robin was no doubt a heavy hitter in the comedy world, he will truly be missed. What got me about him is the different facial expressions he would do when he's cracking on someone or telling a joke, that always had me rolling. When those eyes start to bug out, you better watch out cause he's about to give us one 😂 His scenes in any movies he played in will always be classic scenes. R.I.P Mr. R.H the man 💯

I couldn’t click on this video fast enough! Robin Harris was literally one of the funniest human beings to ever walk the planet. It really does hurt that he was taken from us literally right on the cusp of becoming one of the biggest names in comedy.

Sadly, I didn't find out about Robin Harris, until after he died. When my mom rented Bebe's Kids, & told us that he was already dead. When I was a kid though, I always assumed that Robin was the one actually performing the voice of his character, in the movie. I figured that he'd recorded his parts right before passing. I didn't find out till I was older that it was Faizon Love, doing a spot on impersonation. R.I.P. Robin!!! Also, Bebe's Kids deserves more attention too.

This man was HILARIOUS😂🤣 Me and my husband was just talking about him last night. We were looking at "Do The Right Thang" and was falling out laughing !!
