Dave Chapelle...

...is completely unfunny.

My cousin gave me a DVD of Dave Chapelle doing stand-up in San Francisco and said to me "this is so funny, you will love it". I've never seen Chapelle before, bar about five minutes of his show, but I approached with a completely open mind.

Last time I checked, dropping the words "fuck", "shit", "motherfucker" and "nigger" every ten words is not funny, and neither is comparing the obvious, every day differences between what black people and white people say, do, think, wear and eat.

I watched for half an hour and may have smirked once, but definitely not a single laugh for the entire time. On the other hand, the fat Americans in the audience were braying like a pack of retarded donkeys the whole time, and even getting to their feet applauding at various points.

Why is this guy so popular? I literally cannot understand, especially since I'm fairly easily amused in general.

Dave Chapelle...no love.

I don't know what you've been smoking, but it's Saturday night, not Friday, and I watched a DVD at 5pm before making dinner.

Seriously, what the fuck. I haven't seen a Chapelle standup that I haven't laughed at to this day. He's not as clever with his standup as Chris Rock, but he's funny nevertheless. Then again, I haven't watched a standup without hitting a couple of blunts first. In Ny it was the Haze and Dro, and now that I live in Detroit, it's all about the Kush.

Tribute/Highlight video of his show.

nah, chappelle's stand-up isn't great at all. If I hadn't seen the show first, idk if I would have laughed, but either way, he does rely way too much on swearing, drug use, & random violence. I doubt you will now, but I'd say watch the show, instead. Far better.

gtfo if you don't think that he is funny

want interesting standup which is hillarious then watch George Carlin.

Dave Chapelle's peak popularity was a few years ago when it was "new". His standup isnt as funny as his show was. Some of best stand up Ive seen is. Insomniac Uncensored. Ive shown it to a bunch of friends and we were laughing to tears. I still laugh even though Ive seen it a bunch.

OMG,


That part were you made the comentary about fat american's . That was so clever, were did you think about that.

who cares
chapelle >>>>>>>> carlos mencia

That's Dave Attell not Chapelle. Whom is also really funny. Insomniac was a great show (wish it was still on).

As for the original poster, Watch the Chapelle Show instead. He isn't the greatest standup comic, but his Situational Comedy is far superiour.

oh i HATE kat williams

I know who it is. I was suggesting some really funny stand up. This also isnt Attells Insomnic show, its a 4 man standup in Vegas. Watch it.

+1

Ned sucks, Im glad Joe Rogan called him out.

I think that you might not get the comedy because you are not an American. While he may seem like he is just talking about the differences between white and black people, what he is actually doing is making fun of our society. The funny thing about Dave Chapell is that he makes fun of things that are at least partially true and raises awareness at the same time.

While he is no saint, he doe at least make people through his humor...
