But just chalk it up to you not liking Dave’s brand of comedy


I know he isn't for everybody, but I can't see anyone who really likes comedy not liking Chappelle.

Ever since Half Baked I have been a fan of his (that movie is 21 years old) and this special is one of his best. That's why I think all of the critics are being obvious in trying to hurt the ratings of the show.

I’m reminded of Mel Brooks’ History Of The World - Part 1, where the artist (a cave painter) resulted in “the afterbirth”, the critic, who pisses on the artist’s work.

Like he says in the special

“If you’re watching... you clicked on my face bitch”

Pretty simple.. don’t wanna be offended.. don’t watch... better yet.. quit being a huge pussy overall

Have you seen the alt comedy scene? It’s not funny, but they love it.

It’s not funny bc they don’t make fun of others. It’s just them just talking about themselves or rambling about nothing.

The left is so accustomed to the media and Hollywood placating to them, they don’t know what to do with Chapelle.

Awful.

It isn’t comedy.

It is people performing a TED Talk.

They want rebelliousness but only in a conformist fashion.

You have to fit the mold of attacking what they want.

This is 100% why Trump will win again in 2020.

I watched last night and found it highly offensive. Netflix should be shamed for airing something like this.

He knew the snowflakes would be outraged & triggered, that’s why he makes that statement clear.
“YOU CLICKED on my face BITCH”
He’s not asking anyone to watch him, it’s like being at a beach with no lifeguard.
SWIM AT YOUR OWN RISK.
frick the society of Soy boys & girls, it literally a fricking joke.

It was pretty cringeworthy in spots.

To me it seems to be have done intentionally to draw viewership. Anyone know if he is in trouble financially?

I don’t know Chappelle’s finances. But he doesn’t seem to live beyond his means.

He’s not part of the Hollywood culture.

Garrett Martin of Paste said that the show “is terrible not because audiences have changed, but because Chappelle himself is so thoroughly out of touch with today.”

You've really got your ear to the ground, Chris. How do you stay so current?

It does annoy me how so many people and groups want to be treated equally, but then are up in arms in a situation like this. Part of equality includes being the punchline from time to time.
