It will be canceled for sure
Absolutely good stuff, but won’t make it in this age unfortunately

Watched it last night. Still had some good lines. The one about Kaitlyn Jenner had me rolling. But overall a message was sent to he/she's. Of course they won't hear any of it

Chapelle excels at sketch comedy. His standup is average to me.

I might watch it, I might not.

I watched it earlier today. His bit about getting COVID killed me.

I thought his story about Daphne was tasteful, and made a point. He closed it out humbly, with a message of peace to the Trans-community.

I would expect his personal story of COVID to get it banned before the Trans-community has it cancelled.

I'm in this camp.

Chapelle's show was one of the funniest sketch comedy shows of all time IMHO. I still watch the old episodes on occasion and laugh just as hard.

I’m a huge Chapelle Show fan. Lots of good sketch comedy. He was way before his time and killed it. Watched his latest special and not impressed. It’s almost like he’s trying too hard to offend people. Just not that funny except for a few lines.

Literally nothing about George Floyd. It’s a lot of stuff about Covid, Black on Asian violence, cancel culture, the #MeToo movement, how the LGBTQ community hates him, gotcha journalism, empathy, etc. Really great special that nails the issues with no shortage of heart, humility, and laughter.

Am I in the minority here? His sketch stuff was pretty good, no doubt. I just think his stand-up blows every other stand-up out of the water.

I actually thought this was a throwaway special. It was half a routine at most. He’s still really good but I was disappointed. Ricky Gervais (my other favourite) had a half assed routine as well when I got to see him live in Chicago in 2017 or so.

I have mixed feelings about this. I'm no fan of cancel culture but Chapelle is racist against white people so I'm kind of glad he's getting a taste of it. This is one of those let them fight situations for me

I watched it and do not see the controversy in it. Apparently the wokies and the trannies missed the whole point and they can't take a fricking joke and just look at themselves and laugh. Space Jews...

AVERAGE??? “Killing them softly” is one of the greatest stand up specials of ALL TIME. You’re crazy man, Chappelle’s stand up is top notch. Maybe you’re just too sensitive

I've not had Netflix in 2 years. I stopped after it became clear that like 90% of the content they put out, is woke garbage. Why would I want to help them fund that trash?

I would say that he’s an equal opportunity offender against all races, sexes, and creeds. He makes jokes against white people but I can laugh at it.

Compare that to Amy Schumer and Hannah Gadsby that try to rail on men and you don’t laugh at all. If you can make fun of somebody and have them laugh at it, you’re doing something right.

He was funnier back in the day, he's a frickin democrat so I don't feel sorry for him. Let them eat their own
