Don Curry
A Black man in the White House? Amazing! And so is this must-have stand-up comedy show featuring a six-pack of comedians who hilariously reflect on President Barack Obamas historic election and what it means for America. Taking us from the outhouse to the White House are host Earthquake (Everybody Hates Chris), Sheryl Underwood (BETs Comic View), Joe Clair (longtime host of BETs Rap City), Don DC Curry (Next Friday), Dominique and Dez White. Earthquake also takes us backstage to get to know our comedians better and serves as our personal guide around the nations capital, his hometown.

When a street thug double-crosses his drug-dealing boss, he discovers that personal connections in the ghetto are separated by only two degrees. In the next 18 hours in South Central L.A., Jazzy and Terry meet, fall in lust and bet their lives on one last chance to get out.
Def Comedy Jam played host to some of the greatest comedians of the 1990s, many of whom went on to greater fame, due in part to the exposure they received on the program. Here, Mark Curry and Steve Harvey both show off some comic chops that that could never air on their respective network TV shows, though Harvey has shown this side of himself in Spike Lee's excellent THE ORIGINAL KINGS OF COMEDY. Rounding out the performers are Don "D.C." Curry (NEXT FRIDAY) and Arnez J. Contains two episodes.
Ice Cube returns as Craig Jones, a streetwise man from South Central Los Angeles who has a knack for getting into trouble. This time out, Craig is still trying to outsmart neighborhood bully Debo (Tommy "Tiny" Lister Jr.); after Craig gets the better of Debo in a fist fight, Debo is determined to flatten Craig in a rematch. Looking to stay out of Debo's way, Craig's dad decides that it would be a good idea for Craig to hide out with his Uncle Elroy and cousin Day-Day in Rancho Cucamonga... but trouble seems to find him there also.
