"For a long time it gave me nightmares... witnessing an injustice like that... it's a constant reminder of just how unfair this world can be... I can still hear them taunting him... silly rabbit, tricks are for kids... I mean, WHY COULDN'T THEY JUST GIVE HIM SOME CEREAL?"

Classic, especially when dancing to Tom Jones.

Carlton: I guess it's ok to share my will.
Uncle Phil: Carlton, I'm not dead yet.
Carlton: It's a cruel world big guy and you can't be in it forever.

Uncle Phil once came into a coffee shop where I was working. Everybody was yelling 'Uncle Phil' at him. It was funny.

best dancer of all time

played by Alfonso Ribeiro, such a beautiful name.

funniest carlton moment: will tricks him into believing he is a murderer and he runs over the whole set, and through the audience, wailing and dragging himself along the floor like a dog with worms.

totally classic.

I'd've shouted "Shredder!"

Why couldn't he get Will Smith's career? Imdependence Day would have been so much better with Carlton.

funny thing is, the guy could dance.

*checks imdb*

dear god it's true! and he voiced War Machine

Why couldn't he get Will Smith's career?

*whole of pop culture since 1993 flashes before eyes with Carlton in Will's stead*

Yeah. That would have fucking rocked. Especially seeing Carlton get jiggy with it.

Would he have recorded 'Just The Two Of Us' and duetted with his tiny wife?

― Barima (Barima), Monday, 26 April 2004 22:05 (twenty-two years ago)

Hell yes, he would have.

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Monday, 26 April 2004 22:08 (twenty-two years ago)

He wouldn't have made a very good Ali, though.

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Monday, 26 April 2004 22:11 (twenty-two years ago)

Like hell he wouldn't have.

The Carlton = The Most Classic Dance of All Time.

― Scott CE (Scott CE), Tuesday, 27 April 2004 15:57 (twenty-two years ago)

I often embarrass my boyfriend by performing the Carlton for the duration of the walk from, say, a hip record store, bar, etc. to the car.
