Is he saying the same stuff he said on Oprah a couple weeks ago, or adding some to it?

[Sledlude]

didnt see the oprah.... but he's bein pretty funny.

Sweed jjust turned it on

Watching it now

[#1Beaver]

cant wait till the new season comes on

[JustinSane110™]

Watching it right now. The Oprah interview was damn good, and he made the media look damn stupid for their assumptions and I loved that part, LIRL. His reasons for walking were really understandable when he explained it.

[uproot]

yeah this is pretty good

[SE-Romeo]

He exaplined it at the Grammys too. I couldnt take my eyes off. All the rumors, etc.. he shut them down and told everyone exactly what happened.

Somebody obviously didnt watch the interviews... :rolleyes:

[SE-Romeo]

I gotta say. He is putting a lot of points out there, that half of us probably agree wtih, but if we said it, no one would listen. People will listen to Chappelle. Hell, you can't not listen

[BTLFED]

I can't find it! Fucking dish has too many channels!

It's over now, and there's never too many channels, LIRL!!

[SE-Romeo]

Whats on now is pretty funny thouh.

[kilpatty43]

i dont need to watch it...he's just making excuses for fucking over his coworkers and the network so he can feel better at night

[JustinSane110™]

i dont need to watch it...
My point exactly, gotta love closed minded points of view, thanks for proving the ignorance of your posts in this thread... :goodjob:

[Sledlude]

damn. you must hate his ass. i can see where hes coming from, that would be a lot of pressure. even though he dipped out, comedy central still made hella $$$ from his standup and re running his shows. they still stand to make tons of cash im sure. he's probably one of the best things that ever happened to that network.

[kilpatty43]

im not closed minded at all...in fact im very open minded...however...i live in reality and see things for what they are...and he is an whiner

Well since you didn't watch them I'll post some JustinSane Notes on what he said. :goodjob:

1. Shit was all cool 1st and 2nd season
2. Chappelle signs $50mil contract
3. Everyone around him tries to control what he did and take credit to get into his pockets
4. Things on the set of the show got progressively more awkward
5. He walked from the show, and the money (so the 50mil wasn't really an issue)
6. Went to Africa to get away from it and clear his head
7. Oprah interview: He agrees to finish off the tapings of the show as long as they agree to let him have creative control back and his portion of the DVD sales can go back to people/charities etc.
8. The media tried to fuck him up but the man has made some damn good points.

I gotta say as a disclaimer, I know I have Chappelle sig and avatar, but I'm being totally unbiased about this thing, lol. ;)

so grow some balls and say something instead of being a pussy and walking away

Apparently he did, but they tried to claim he was being paranoid (he said that on the Oprah interview), so I guess actions speak louder than words.

[kilpatty43]

as i said...making excuses so he can feel better about himself...believe what you want...and i will do the same...

Sure thing, but at least in my case I follow the story before having a belief about it...

[Dragonfly5338]

CHAPELLE FOR PRESIDENT!

[kilpatty43]

yes and ive heard your points and the points of chappelle...however...i know better than to believe everything i hear thus i still stand by my point...

Thats perfectly fine, but I can understand his situation 100% because I've been there and still am sometimes. Come into some money and it can change you but in a lot of cases it changes everybody around you 10x as much, happens to me with my own (non-immediate) family sometimes.

if you look at other celebrities, i'd say dave chapelle's whining is minimal compared to most. he didnt even whine, he just left. and he's explaining why.

[devinwebb907]

i watched it, explained a bit

[PhAtBoYMr2]

Saw it and i have to say dave chapelle is one of the realist niggas alive...the man speaks the truth
