Prince on Chris Rock show? Which Season?

I've seen Prince perform Face down on the Chris Rock show but what season was this?

There is a DVD for sale of his 1st and 2nd season. Will it be on here?

Thanks

prince wasn't on the chris rock show, he was interviewed by prince on vh1 to one, broadcast on 7th february 1997. the chris rock show seasons 1 and 2 were released on dvd in 2006. londell mcmillan appeared on one of the shows in season 1. vh1 to one was an infrequent series of interviews with people such as mariah carey and paula abdul

there's also frequent references to prince in everybody hates chris. the episode broadcast the week before last involved chris pretending to be a prince fan to get a date with a girl who was a big prince fan. the halloween episode of season one had chris dressing as prince from the 1999 era


So when was it Prince was introduced by Chris Rock when he sand Face Down? Who's show was it on?

it was vh1 to one, and it was johnny cockroach not londell on the chris rock show season 1 (cuz he got oj off). prince never appeared on the chris rock show. vh1 to one was a series of specials with one artist interviewed by someone else



No you are mixing the two up. Prince did appeared on the Chris Rock Show, he only sang "face down" at the end of the show. VH1 to one is something else. Chris Rock did interview Prince during that series but no performance.

that's right, i was confused, prince was on the first episode of the first season of the chris rock show doing face down. the vh1 to one was the interview with chris rock and prince in the brrr coat

Thank you. This is what I wanted to know. This is a review from the link you gave

Despite what another reviewer says, yes this set IS edited. I guess they never say "The COMPLETE Seasons 1 & 2" for a reason. I couldn't find anything specific about this set online beforehand, so I finally took the plunge... and am very disappointed. For those wondering, yes the very first episode of the series - with Johnnie Cochran and Prince - has had Prince's performance, and any mention of Prince, completely removed from the episode. On the disc, the episode runs just over 20 minutes long as opposed to the close to 30 minutes of the other episodes. I love Chris, I love this show, but I feel that I've been had by HBO thanks to the very careful wording on the packaging and the lack of any detailed information about this set elsewhere. At this point, I haven't yet gone through the rest of the set to see what may be missing, but having such a huge chunk cut out of the first episode isn't a great way to start

I WON'T BOTHER BUYING IT NOW!

Thanks

So Prince is edited out, that figures. Ever see that infomerical for the best of Midnite Special DVD???? You know they won't have Prince's appearance on that eithier. Also in the mid to late 90's I was at blockbuster and rented the video Saturday Night live 15th anniversary because I wanted to see Prince singing "The Electric chair", that too was not included.
