His most recent Netflix special(s) are phenomenal. The "final show" takes all this #MeToo stuff head-on, and he even gives some clues as to why he went to South Africa for 12 years.

Absurdly good.

This was very good after the first 10-15 minutes or so

I thought the middle was the strongest of both shows. The beginning was a bit slow and the end was heartfelt but not good comedy.

Him talking about CK’s allegations were the first ones that made him laugh had me laughing my ass off. There were some other really good parts. “Nigga, your God is ridiculous.” Was another great one liner.

I loved how he pointed out that a bitch can just hang up the phone.

Kevin Spacey as a gay truffle pig was funny too.

The #metoo stuff was awesome also.

Great shows.

I think I caught the insinuation he gave regarding his 12-year hiatus, but I'm curious on your guys' take.

Dave was CC's bottom bitch at the end of his mileage but he didnt fall for the trap?

I construed the part about breaking a strong willed ho to mean that CC/the industry had blackballed/shit on Dave so bad he forgot how fucked up it was when he was able to come back.

That was my take as well. Coupled with his constant insinuations that other shows CC released after him were copies of what he did, this seems to be the best interpretation.

Who is the more blatant Chappelle rip off? Key & Peele or Mind of Mencia?

I think Mencia flat-out stole tons of Chappelle bits. Key and Peele are black guys but I don't think they're so baldly derivative.

Dave Chappelle also didn't invent the genre either, though I think it's pretty obvious that Mencia tried to steal the whole thing, and K&P were influenced by it.

Mencia stole his whole career. The YouTube video of Joe Rogan calling him out on stage is hilarious.

Chappelle said he got sick of watching key snd Peele do his show every night in this Netflix special. I didn't watch too much K&P but I was a "bigfan" of chappelle's killin em softly set and "undercover brother" b4 chappelle's show, so suffice to say when I saw the first chappelle's show teaser during the sheen roast (or whatever) I was like OH HELL YEAH and then to watch it become pop culture? Msn, good times.

Glad to see Dave's still Dave. He always struck me as one of the more genuine dudes in conedy/showbiz. His inside the actor's studio episode is some #realtalk

Parts of the second hour struck me as Dave struggling with his inner grandfather feelings about what women have to face in the future in the upcoming years. Men of power will be pissed and come back with at you with a vengeance. Gonna have to figure out a way to get more people involved and quit some of the antics currently associated with the movement. I don't think the thoughts were completely thought out for a live show, but they were poignant enough to get the point across, and still attempt to get a laugh or two out of bad subject matter. A little deeper than your average comedic spot. Well done imho.

Netflix started streaming his show recently.

Dave called a Netflix executive, and asked if they could stop streaming the show because Viacom/Comedy Central hadn’t paid him what he felt he was owed for the show.

They pulled the show.

Cool.

Fuck Dave Chappelle.

He is a sell-out B itch.

When Trump was elected, he was the first one to say, "Hey, let's give him a chance."

Then, when the fucking mob came to his door, he caved.

Never ended-up giving Trump that "chance". Fucking buster.

Trump fucked up his multitude of chances.

I agree.

Fuck Chappelle on this issue.

You know how many people sign these same contracts and have bad shows that nobody watches? Lots. But they were happy to have a platform for a show. Happy to have that money at the time. He didn't know he was gonna be a star with this show at the time.

This bitch signed the contract. They have the rights. Deal with it, Dave. Nobody is gonna cry for you. Plus you quit on them as well.

It's a legal document. Fuck you. You're doing fine. Let's say the show failed. What would Dave think if they asked for money back from him? Be a big boy Dave. Fight bigger fights.

Nobody cares about you on this one.

Your last line of the post is obviously wrong. The rest of it is fine though. He signed a contract and the other party is holding him too that. That’s fair. And he’s now using his leverage to try to change that. Also fair. There’s nothing to complain about here.

Here's the thing he doesn't understand. He does, actually, he just won't admit it.

Comedy central giving him that opportunity made him make the money he makes at Netflix. He was the one that said HBO said "Fuck you" to him at that time.

So quit the bitching.

But he's really not doing this for any more money. He knows he can't get it. He's just doing this routine for attention.

And I like Chappelle. I said he's the best ever. But I see through him on this move.

They took a chance on you, Dave. A lot of people don't get that chance. You should be grateful for that.

You're a muli millionaire now. If you want the rights back, make them an offer.

They own it. You don't. Nobody cares. And that Dave Chappelle charm of his will not make people care. So buy it back or move the fuck on.

Conan has been a huge failure for TBS.

Is it cool if TBS asks for money back from Conan?

It's the way shit works. And Chappelle knows it. Like I said, he's just doing a bit asking for sympathy. Fuck him.
