Def Comedy Classics: Martin Lawrence

Funnyman Martin Lawrence plays host for this collection of episodes from the popular HBO show that unleashed a hail of comic talent on the American public, creating more than a few superstars in the process. Dave Chappelle, D.L. Hughley, Chris Tucker and other quipsters deliver material that’s sometimes cruel and sometimes crude — but always hysterical. Series producer Russell Simmons provides commentary.
