Add Review/Comment

You probably remember John Witherspoon as Ice Cube's (Craig's) outrageously funny, dog-catching dad in New Line Cinema's smash urban trilogy Friday, Next Friday & Friday After Next, or as "Pops" on the long-running syndicated sitcom "The Wayans Brothers" or as "Spoon" on NBC's "The Tracy Morgan Show." One thing's for sure, once you've seen Witherspoon you completely understand why he has earned the reputation as one of America's funniest dads. 

Not only does Witherspoon's work span over four decades to include blockbuster movies, hit-television shows, commercials, and top-rated music videos, but he's coined his own catch phrases'as in "Bang!Bang!Bang!Bang!" and "You Gotta Co-ordinate!" Additionally, Witherspoon has lent his voice to other top-rated animated shows including, "The Proud Family" and "Kim Possible," amongst others. Witherspoon continues to tour around the country with his wildly popular stand-up show and recently launched The John Witherspoon Collection ---a complete line of humorous greeting cards called Spoon Cards.

    This is a show you can watch over and over again. Funny from the start to the finish. I'd never seen a hypnotist show before and I was blown away. I hung around to chat to the volunteers after the show and there was no way they were leaving without buying a DVD of the evening's show. I've heard he is going to play at Zanies for the rest of the week. I will be calling friends and going again. I can't remember laughing so hard! Collapse
