Eddie Murphy’s 1982 Buddy Cop Classic Still Holds up Today
Eddie Murphy was only 19 when he made his first appearance on the sketch comedy show Saturday Night Live in 1980 when the show was reeling from the departures of Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi. Murphy singularly revitalized Saturday Night Live while establishing himself as the most exciting comedic talent of his generation. By the time he left Saturday Night Live in 1984, he was arguably the hottest star in Hollywood.
