Dude....it so wasn't. Where tha hell were y'all? It was 1991. Arsenio went off air in 1993.

Where YOU been? Arsenio's show ran from 1989 until May 1994. Five full seasons.

More from Wikipedia:
During a May 1991 taping, Hall lost his composure when three or four members of the gay-activist faction Queer Nation that were seated in the back rows—apparently offended because Hall's producers failed to book Gus Van Sant to promote his gay-themed film My Own Private Idaho— interrupted Hall's opening monologue by shouting questions as to why he never had any "gay" guests on his show. The heated exchange went on for several minutes, with Hall defending his position as host and arguing that he'd had plenty of gay people as guests.


OK so I was off by a year. BUt everyone was saying that was his last season.

And as far as wikipedia as a source... no no no! Don't get too dependant. While it served for info now, the source is hardly reputable. smile

smooches!

All I gotta say is that FADE definitely looks alot closer to 1991 than 1994.

I think u r confusing Arsenio with Eddie Murphy, there were rumors about Murphy and Gill being lovers.

What Arsenio should've said was that he himself "dip un de odda side". Everybody in L.A. knows Arsenio is bi, and had a man living with him.

My memory sucks, but I do recall a time when Eddie Murphy was a guest on Aresenio's show and Eddie was telling the audience how small Aresenio's feet are, and Aresenio cut him off and said something like, "Now these people are gonna be thinking, 'how come he's at Ed's house with no shoes on??'" It was funny, but a bit uncomfortable too. I remember feeling bad for Eddie.
