😡 Hated it🔥 Controversial

Fans debate whether Michael Richards' controversial comedy club incident and subsequent apology were worse than the incident itself, with disagreement over his word choice and career trajectory.

Watching the event itself was bad enough. But seeing that hideous "apology" to the "Afro Americans" just compounded the whole thing into a totally unforgiveable and horrendous memory. "Afro Americans?" Are you kidding me? And did you see how uneasy he was trying to even come up with that gem? Like the only word in his brain was the "N" bomb, and he had to think hard to come up with anything else.

Thanks Kramer. You made what was, in my opinion, the best show ever on TV into some horrific reminder of your totally lame ass. I can't watch any more. Thanks a lot. Yeah I know, I should separate the actor from the role, Kramer from Richards. But now I just see his sorry ass face on Letterman looking all dumb and apologizing to the Afro Americans. Afro Americans? Yeah, I bet that made our African American friends feel all warm and fuzzy.

Speaking of Fuzzy, maybe it will all be forgotten some day, like it seems to be for Zuzzy Zoeller. Ya know, of "whatever those people eat" fame. "Collard Greens, or watermelon, or whatever those people eat." He survived that. So maybe Richards can survive this. Right now the show's unwatchable for me though, and for a lot of others it seems. Good job K man.

What was he doing at a comedy club anyway? Does he think he's a comedian now? Because he was on a show with Jerry Seinfeld, who is a comedian, he thinks he's a comedian too? Oh my God. Yeah very funny stuff Richards. I especially liked the whole "You're a N-bomb" bit. Really entertaining stuff. Go away now Richards. You've done enough damage, we don't want to see you anymore.

You mean Assman don't you?

Didn't he do stand up comedy as on Leno, way before his role as Kramer in Seinfeld?
