List of In Living Color cast members
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cast members came and went during the run of the show, and new members appeared were added. Note that some older cast members continued to appear in later seasons, so later casts also include some previous year's cast members.

Despite popular belief, Chris Rock was never an official cast member on In Living Color. Rock appeared (as a "special guest star") only in a selected number of skits in the fifth season, and reprised his "Cheap Pete" character from I'm Gonna Git You Sucka. In the early years of In Living Color, Rock was parodied as being the only African American on Saturday Night Live.
Other recurring guest stars in the fifth season include Nick Bakay (for The Dirty Dozens sketches) and Peter Marshall (for several editions of East Hollywood Squares). Biz Markie also appeared in various roles as a guest star in the fifth season.

Rosie Perez was the choreographer for the first four seasons. Jossie Thacker, Lisa Thompson, and Deidre Lang assumed the role as assistant choreographers, while Arthur Rainer (who was the assistant choreographer for the first 4 seasons) became the main choreographer.
Over the run of the series, several individuals—both male and female—made uncredited appearances as unofficial "Fly Girls."
