The Silly And Stylish Cast Of 'In Living Color' Honored At TV Land Awards (PHOTOS)

The legendary (and hilarious) cast of "In Living Color" was honored last night at the 10th Annual TV Land Awards in New York City.

The Wayans clan--Keenen Ivory Wayans, Shawn Wayans, Marlon Wayans and Kim Wayans-- were joined by their superstar cast members Jim Carrey, Tommy Davidson, Kelly Coffield Park, T’Keyah Crystal Keymah and David Alan Grier to accept the evening's "The Groundbreaking Award," which was presented to them by funny gal Whoopi Goldberg.

Even former Fly Girls Carrie Ann Inaba from 'Dancing With The Stars,' Laurieann Gibson, Lisa Marie Todd, Deidre Lang and Michelle Whitney-Morrison were honored for their contribution to the show's mega success.

Aretha Franklin was on hand to celebrate by performing a few of her beloved hits, including Respect and Chain Of Fools. And Kelly Ripa hosted the event for the second time--dazzling the audience with 13 outfit changes. But it was her booty shaking routine with the Fly Girls that really brought the house down. (Sadly the flyest and most famous former Fly Girl, Jennifer Lopez, was a no-show)

You'll have to tune into TV Land on Sunday, April 29 at 9pm ET/PT to see the entire show, but in the meantime here's a look at last night's fun-filled event.

Excellent show! I truly miss it.

For some reason the comments on the Black Voices are always delayed which gives the impression that the articles aren't read or commented on...they are...it's HPAOL..

Da.n..where are my comments? Only 50 posted...

I beg to differ...J-Lo was not the flyest nor the hippest flygirl...that would be Diedra...the darkskinned lady who turned it out every week...

[emperance]

That is true, it was Diedra.

One of my favorite recurring sketches was when Kim and David played Mr. and Mrs. Brooks. "We're still together!"

Good for them, they are truly a groundbreaking group of funny people.

Why isn't 'In Living Color' on Netflix yet?

Or... Martin, 227, The Jeffersons, Living Single. W T F

I am still shocked that with absurd comedies like "The Hangover" being released that "Men on Film" hasn't been made yet. This is a no brainier.

[westreal]

No Jennifer Lopez or Jamie Foxx? If a show made me a superstar I would show up for the reunion.

Hello...got that right...faved..

That's NOT how it's done in H-wood.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Both J-Lo & Jamie are TOO big for that.
I'm sure they did NOT want to attend.
I'm also sure that their mangers & publicists wouldn't not WANT them to attend.

If I were either, I wouldn't attend. PLZ!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

*** A-LISTERS ONLY DO A-LIST EVENTS!!!! ***

That, westreal, is how it's done in LaLa.

First time I tuned in was the Thanksgiving dinner skit with "Anton Jackson". My stomach hurt so bad from laughing I was afraid to tune it in again but I overcame my fear and continued to laugh so hard I got some good 6 pack abs going...
So talented and I was pleasantly surprised they weren't censored off the air. Wayans Bros so talented.
And the skits are still timely. The Zimmerman case in Florida? Jim Carey as "Dickie Peterson: Cherub of Justice" seemed to fit. Even the name is a joke.
Want to see it here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEQfe9-YoIY

How pathetic that J-LO was a no-show.

A big fat ZERO.

That show made her career. I understand the business of being an idol judge, etc, but don't tell me she couldn't have made it.

I didn't see the article mention Jamie Foxx.

Kudos to all of them though. The show was a classic.

[emperance]

*** A-LISTERS ONLY DO A-LIST EVENTS!!!! ***

JLo & Jamie are A-LISTERS now, they don't attend B,C & D-list events.
Get real.

I'd think less of both, had they attended. SERIOUSLY.

[darlenercoleman]

...so in other words, don't show up and give thanks to the vehicle that launched your career. It is more than likely the cse that none of us would even know who Jamie and/or Jennifer are had it not been for this show. Maybe they were too busy; that I would understand. But too BIG? Please...hopefully there not taking any advice from YOU...

[SalBruno]

04:35 PM on 04/17/2012

I'm sure they really care a great deal about your thoughts and advice. I'm sure you gave it to them when you attended that last A-list party with them.....oh what's that? You don't get into those parties? Uh-huh....nuff said.

Where was Rosie Perez ?

Yes!?!

I was about to ask the same thing. Her choreography for the show was nominated for an Emmy. No small potatoes of a feat.

ILC was one of the funniest shows ever ! I don`t think it ever got the recognition it deserved. So great to see it honored !

This show was great, funniest ever, well deserved.
