he won't be returning. it really is sad.

is he being betrayed by Murphy and his other co-stars? that's the way the writer is making this out to be.

watched the new ep tonight. it was decent but nothing special. nothing in it really had the amount of funny that the first two seasons had.

but, perhaps it is for the best that chappelle is moving on.

i still need to see Block Party, though. my friend tells me it's amazing.

The show has always been over hyped. It was never worth 50 million. Much better stuff on tv than his show.

i agree but it was still entertaining, even if it was VEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRY hit and miss.

Aren't most sketch comedy shows that way? Look at SNL, for every good sketch/character, you have to sit through tons of crappy ones. But I LOVE RENO 911! I need to buy the DVDS.

Not really. The Ben Stiller Show was pretty consistently funny (Although it is extremely dated by now) and, of course, Mr. Show was just genius from first sketch to last. And Monty Python.

let's not forget the very short lived "Dana Carvey show" on ABC about 10 years ago.

I think only 6 episodes aired. maybe not even that much. but God, it was brilliant!

I have seen better public access programming.

Ahh yes, The Dana Carvey Show. Nearly every single writer and performer on that staff would go on to work on The Daily Show. I think, ironically, Dave Chappelle was even involved with it too.

I hated this show, I never laughed once.
