I am just wondering if anymore else watchs this piece of comedic gold. Ive watched it since the first episode aired last season, and I was really excited when I saw he had a second season coming out. After watching the new season episodes, I am loving it. For all of those who DONT know, Chappelle's Show is on Comedy Central every Wensday @ 10:30PM (EST). The show is run by Dave Chapelle, who was the main star and writer of "Half-Baked" (A movie of which you should see if you havent).

Clips from Chapelle's Show:

reminds me of Beavis & Butthead, in the people it makes fun of (white guys) are probably its biggest viewer demographic

it's brilliant sometimes, but pretty hit-or-miss in general.

wonder if chappelle would be funny if he wasn't black?

Ya I love that show also, its one of the few shows that is like SNL, but its actually funny.

And If you think thats good, then try the new show "Tripping the Rift", its a spoof on star trek and star wars, very adult though, its on thursday night at 10:30 on scifi channel. Now I said try it, it doesn't mean that ya'all will neccicerely like it, or think its funny for that matter.

Chappelle's Pepsi commercial with the "your vacuum cleaner ate my pants... There was nothing I could do" is one of the funniest things I've ever seen, if for no other reason than the delivery of that line.

Haven't watched the show much, might if I actually had any TV service whatsoever. I did see the GTA3 parody video, though, which was also just fantastic. [addsig]

I haven't watched the show much because of what I did see just wasn't that funny. I personally love his stand-up, it's hillarious. But, for the most part, as Jynx said, it is hit and miss. When his stuff isn't funny, it is REALLY not funny. And its not offensive or anything, it's just not funny sometimes. But, his Rick James sketch was great.

Oh, yeah, anyone remember this piece of crap for a movie? Con Air. Chapelle was the dude that got tossed out with a message on his chest...god what a bad movie. anyway [addsig]

I love that film not as much as The Rock or Face Off but its one of the best Nicolas Cage film I've seen, I think.

and as for the Dave Chapelle show I didn't think that much of it I only saw a coupple of episodes but I didnt think they were that funny.

The show can be ok sometimes, but can get into the annoying territory. Kind of over-relies on the whole stereotype thing. Doesn't hold a candle to the best sketch show ever - Kids in the Hall. I'm even listening to a cd by Bruce McCulloch as I type this.

Oh man, that show's great. How to construct a skit . . . skit, is hillarious. Most of their gay-based skits weren't that funny though. Just because Scott Thompson is gay he bases most of the characters he makes up to be REALLY sterotypical gay....as well. [addsig]
