You all have seen the first episode of the second season Yo Momma by now. What did I think of it? I thought it was pretty funny. I can’t compare it to the first season, because I don’t remember the first season enough, but I say they are about equal. Now I did hear a few jokes that were used in the first season, but for the most part the jokes were all original. I will say that there are definitely funnier people in later episodes this week. More on that later.
The first episode featured Bed-Stuy vs. Brooklyn Heights. There are four things that Sam and Jason look for to pick the guys or gals that make it to the final round, where Wilmer helps decide the winner for that day. Those four things are originality, delivery, quickness, and sting. In the end, Carlos from Brooklyn Heights was able to defeat Reckless X from Bed-Stuy. Again, there are funnier people later in the week, though.
So there are four more episodes this week, for the Canadians. For the Americans, you already seen those episodes and you should be watching the second week of action now. But back in first week, you will see battles between Flatbush vs. Williamsburg, Bay Ridge vs. Bensonhurst, and Sunset Park vs. Coney Island. The winners of those battles would go on to face Carlos in the “Best of Brooklyn” show, which took place last Thursday night/Friday afternoon in the U.S. I won’t spoil it for the Canadians, though. But one thing you should know is that the finalists for the “Best Of…” show are determined by the 4 people that lost in the finals for each day. And then the “Best Of…” is decided by Wilmer, Sam, Jason, AND a special guest judge. The first week it was rapper, Jadakiss. You’ll have to find out who is the “Best of Brooklyn” when you watch that episode. I won’t spoil it here. But it was a close one and a good one.
Some killer jokes from the first week include “Yo Momma is so black and her teeth are so yellow, that when she smiles she looks like a cheeseburger!”, “Yo Momma is so fat, she saw a school bus driving down the road with a bunch of white kids in it and she yelled, ‘STOP THAT TWINKIE’!”, “Yo Momma is just like a public toilet, free and disgusting!”, “Yo Momma is so fat, she’s got donuts for nipple rings!”, “I was telling your sister last night that I was going to be on Yo Momma tomorrow and I’m nervous. She said don’t be nervous, everyone has been on her!”, “Yo Momma is so broke, you can’t even afford to eat a Payday!”. Those are just ones I can write here. There were some great lines that I can’t write, since they contain words that are a little “dirty”.
One other thing you will notice this year that there are a lot more props being used in jokes. This can be good and bad, I suppose. It depends on how they use the props and how funny it is. For the most part, I find the jokes with props are not as funny as regular jokes. It just seems too “over-the-top” to me. Again, it just depends though.
Since I’m watching the second week of the show in the US right now, I can preview that as well. It will feature the “Best of Manhattan”. The first battle will be between East Village vs. Upper West Side. The best joke there was Yo Momma is so stupid, in a drive-by shooting I told her to get down, and she started dancing! To be honest, I have never heard so much booing in the final round on this show. It’s like they put out their best jokes in the opening rounds and then just went downhill from there. Hopefully this week gets better like last week.
So Brooklyn was last week. Manhattan is featured this week. I’m fairly certain that they will go to the other three boroughs of New York City, Staten Island, Bronx, Queens, and decide the best there to add to the best of Mahattan and Brooklyn. That should happen over the next three weeks and it should end with the special “Best of New York City” finale sometime after that. Who knows, they may even have plans to have last year’s winner in Los Angeles face the winner of New York City in the near future. But it certainly will be an interesting season to any interesting show, to say the least.
