I'd been mostly trying to tune him out recently but I'm very glad I watched that, it really brought the pathos. He's right, I do trust him as an honest voice even if his views have become somewhat regressive.
― locked in a death spiral of vindictive gatekeeping (viborg), Saturday, 13 June 2020 18:42 (four years ago) link
That closer though.
He’s shit on lgbt people, but he spends a good portion of the set saying that his pronouncements are not the point, he is just some asshole celeb on stage and the movement is speaking for itself (sorry for inelegant paraphrase) so why keep in a line that will inevitably divert attention to a referendum on the character of Dave Chappelle? It was a good cut to make. Totally understand & support anyone who doesn’t want to give him attention due to hurtful things he’s said in the past obv
― What fash heil is this? (wins), Saturday, 13 June 2020 18:44 (four years ago) link
He’s shit on lgbt people
Yes.
My lukewarm take is that it's enough that he's one of the best speakers on racism in the United States. I don't need him in this or any other moment to be cogent or particularly inspiring on any other topic.
― Dirty Epic H. (Eric H.), Saturday, 13 June 2020 18:47 (four years ago) link
"Is Chappelle just incapable of going 30 minutes onstage without proclaiming that he doesn’t get what makes queer folks tick,"

― Dirty Epic H. (Eric H.), Saturday, 13 June 2020 18:54 (four years ago) link
Yeah totally agree with the lukewarm take. My instinctive take was that fixating on this one cut line was a little too close to “he was no angel” type arguments but I’m not sure that’s exactly fair. It extremely doesn’t matter what I think of course

― Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Tuesday, 16 June 2020 15:48 (four years ago) link
I have no love for netflix, but I assumed it was because putting it on YT means it's free and available to non-subscribers (as other streaming services have done with some content). That said, why not do both? is a valid question
― dip to dup (rob), Tuesday, 16 June 2020 15:51 (four years ago) link
I'm guessing they're filming a one-hour special from these Ohio shows, and it doesn't hurt them at all to have this outside the paywall. Chappelle introduces this as less finished than what he usually puts out, whereas a finished special will be the more polished hour.
Part of the astonishing thing about this last week was seeing high production values of an event during quarantine, when we've gotten so used to musician/comedian Zooms from home. (Though last week's Austin fundraiser and John Prine tribute both had similar quality from the Ryman, Antone's, etc., even when the musicians were playing in an empty room.)

watched a few eps of Chappelle's Show this weekend which was a bizarre experience since I've seen them all a dozen times but not since like, 2005. still funny but man I forgot how many very specific references there were to 2002-2004 pop culture stuff, like idk how I'd even explain some of this to a younger generation. the "lost season" where a couple of the bit guys wound up hosting the show while Chappelle was MIA was such a bizarre moment. I wonder how Dave felt about that.

He wasn't happy about it. At the time, he called the airing of the "lost" episodes a "bully move."
― Montgomery Burns' Jazz (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Monday, 30 August 2021 16:48 (two years ago) link
there's a long bit on "Unforgiven" about what happened with the show and how he got screwed over and it's riveting listening but it's also pretty difficult to see this guy as a victim. like when he does these jokes about how we shouldn't stream Chappelle's Show because he doesn't get paid or "you will never get your money back" about when he bombed in Detroit are we supposed to forget that he's insanely rich & has been one of the most successful and well-known comedians on the planet for over two decades, despite literally disappearing for something like 12 years?

I was calculating the length of time between Chappelle's Show and the Netflix specials, I forgot he did that tour with Flight of the Conchords in 2013. I guess his real public comeback was SNL in 2016, where he said "I'll give Donald Trump a chance"? (which I know he says he regrets, still a monumentally stupid thing to say)

random question, anybody know why there's one ep of Chappelle's Show that's not available? like even though it's streaming, there's one episode missing - the only sketch I remember from it was "what if the Internet was a store?" or something like that.
it'll never come back now that Ron Jeremy is in it, but it's been gone since before that indictment.
