anyone else think Rerun is kind of annoying?

Rerun was fun to watch dance, but sometimes he was annoying and at times a bad friend, like when (spoilers) he ditched his friends when he got on the football team and still wanted Raj to write his speech for him and when he auditioned for the Gong Show the same time the Givens kids were supposed to go on....

His character was always throwing someone under the bus, but the brotha COULD dance. Towards the end of the series, it seemed like he wanted more camera time and his overall attitude seemed abrasive. Maybe this was the time he was demanding more money.

I enjoyed Raj the most out of the crew, with Dee & Mama, then Dwayne & Shirley next, followed by Rerun.

Thank you!! I thought that I was the only one who felt this way about him. I noticed that some other's have commented on how good a dancer he was. I must have been watching something different. He was NOT a good dancer, especially with pants that he wore up to his chest and with suspenders. Made him look heavier than normal.





"Which one do you want, Biff? Doug? Skippy? No, don't take Skippy, he has asthma."

That episode was not Rerun's finest hour.

Annoying, yes, but in an interesting way. Berry's voice and certain of his mannerisms have always made me think of him as the black Joe Besser, odd as that might sound.

I thought he was pretty good, but the above summation of Rerun's attempt at the Doobie Brothers concert made me laugh out loud.

"He messed up everything in the Doobie Brothers episode. He didn't get tickets because his fat *&^% couldn't wait in line and opted to go for a hamburger instsead (was there any point where he *wasn't* eating). Then he gets suckered into the bootlegging business. Then the moron decides to open his coat, and stand up and dance, all right in the front row. but the recording was worthless anyway because Rerun was crunching chips throughout the whole thing."

Yes he was! Fred can act like he was the reason people were tuning in but I honestly could do without him.
