Wayans praised Carrey’s impressionist skills and mutual agreement to push each other’s comedic boundaries on stage. The bond between Wayans and Carrey remains strong, reflecting on their time on the iconic ’90s Fox series “In Living Color.”

Carrey’s success on the show solidified his place in Hollywood, with the series running for five seasons from 1990 to 1994.

During the interview, Wayans also shared that the late Robin Williams was a “notorious thief” who would steal jokes from other comedians.

Wayans described an instance where Williams’ manager would write checks to comedians whose material was allegedly taken.
