Buzz Time Machine: Jim Carrey as Fire Marshal Bill

Before Jim Carrey hit the big time as one of the funniest movie stars in Hollywood, he was bringing in the laughs on the small screen's In Living Color.

Before Jim Carrey hit the big time as one of the funniest movie stars in Hollywood, he was bringing in the laughs on the small screen's In Living Color. The early '90s sketch-comedy series ran for five seasons, and Carrey made a name for himself, thanks to an unforgettable character: Fire Marshal Bill. Carrey's rubber face was put on full display as the scarred firefighter with a penchant for destructive behavior. In this skit, Bill visits a home to impart some words of wisdom about fire safety, and naturally, things get out of hand very quickly. (Don't worry, Bill assures the family he's been caught on fire so many times he can't even feel it anymore).

Jim Carrey As Seinfeld

"Seinfeld" has been criticized for its white-washing of New York City.

"Seinfeld" has been criticized for its white-washing of New York City. On the rare occasion a non-white was on the show, that person was a gross stereotype. "In Living Color" fixes this problem with...more stereotypes. Only, this time, these stereotypes kick Jerry's ass. (Gotta love Jim Carrey.)
