Comedy Central Presents

Aries Spears stepped onto the Comedy Central Presents stage in 2005 armed with the aggressive impressions that made him a MADtv standout. The half-hour set moves from post-9/11 racial divides to surreal pop culture scenarios, peaking with a bit that imagines Bill Cosby and Eddie Murphy resorting to cannibalism.

Spears caps off the 22-minute broadcast with a rap tribute, demonstrating the vocal mimicry that built his career. The routine also leans into standard mid-2000s observational premises about how white people engage with the animal kingdom, serving as a setup for his character work.
