Dave Chappelle

Dude was in a cult classic, and then completed 33 episodes of a show before going awol. Don't get me wrong, dude has had his share of funny moments...

but the pedestal he is put upon is undeserved, imo.

Sketch comedy shows are largely written by numerous writers, so the show has very little to do with how funny Chappelle is as a comedian.

Killin' Them Softy is a great example of how good is stand up is. Watch the Youtube video of his unplanned performance at Kojo comedy club in London to see how well he improvises. If anything, he's an underrated comedian.
