He seems a lot more bitter and tired. Is Dave going to be ok?

He is one of the only good ones left.

The last two specials were ok but they were more rants and reflections than comedy. Especially compared to the energy of past shows. I think he's done with everything.

He should retire, he's letting his personal feelings cloud his job as a comedian.

I think he is getting burned out on the constant cycle of outrage we get to live in thanks to social media. I can't say I disagree with him.

i think he has his own opinions about trump and progressives but in order to get netflix specials and money he had to come out and bash trump and talk about black people struggle even though it was clear he wasnt really into it

I didn't get that at all. I think his stuff about black people has been a consistent theme of his throughout his whole career.

As for Trump, really only white evangelical christians and a few token minorities actually like him, not accounting for the underage Sup Forums meme squad. I think his was one of the more refined and gentle Trump slams he could have used.

Chapelle Show ended over a decade ago. All goodwill he garnered is gone. There is an entire generation of kids who don't know who the fuck he is.

He's back to square one and he knows it.

Where’s the third special? It was meant to be out before 2018

>Be Dave
>Rage at racism (understandable)
>Spend 12 years online
>Probably spends most of his time here
>Constantly fighting with the underage idiots
>Eventually starts to believe that comedy is just outright ranting about your beliefs
>And shitposting when someone disagrees

Poor Dave, the Interwebz got to him.

>only white evangelical christians and a few token minorities actually like him
Whatever helps you sleep at night, sweetpea.

Wow, looks like a lot of white christians voted for Trump.

Are you really so intellectually dishonest that you won't admit white conservatives aren't Trumps voter base? That isn't even controversial.

>but in order to get netflix specials and money

He doesn't need Netflix specials. They had to pay him an insane amount of money to agree to do the specials.

Remember that about fifteen years ago a bunch of early 2000s frat boys drove him to a mental breakdown and a suicide attempt merely by yelling "I'm Rick James, bitch!" at him every time they saw him in public. #2018goals

Why the hell did Netflix pay $30M for these 2 shitty specials?

$10M would seem like a lot.

It was four specials. Split into two release dates.

Shit. I guess he's done for Netflix then?

So $60M for all 4. I wonder if Netflix regretted dropping all that money on Dave.

I doubt he generated more than 6 million unique subscribers.

Its not just about generating new users its about stopping Dave from promoting another online service and losing users to that other service

2/3rds of the country live on the coast

It isn't just about generating subscribers/revenue, it's also about filling out their rapidly shrinking catalog.

>I wonder if Netflix regretted dropping all that money on Dave.

The first two generated an insane amount of publicity, so I doubt it.

He knows when to walk away

Nigga I still like him. He's no appealing to those kids and I love it.

That map doesn’t really mean shit when you consider the archipelago has a bigger population

I know it can be hard to grasp that more land doesn’t always mean more people

>Netflix
>Amazon

Those are the only 2 streaming services I know of.

I think Amazon has like $70B or some ridiculous shit like that.

I think it's hilarious that he said one of CKs accusers had a brittle spirit, yet he had a mental breakdown, quit his show, and ran off to Africa. Dude's still got it.

You're a fucking retard.

>There is an entire generation of kids who don't know who the fuck he is.
I really don't think so, since Comedy Central aired his show every single night until at least 2013, and still airs it sometimes on weeknights. I'd imagine he probably has some teenage fans who stay up crazy late and happened to stumble into Chappelle's Show after an episode of South Park or K&P one night.

>Classic Chappelle
>So me and Chip were hanging out
>And the cops were like WATCH IT YOU TWO!
>So glad we hid our blunts that night.

>New Chappelle
>So I saw a white tranny and kicked HER in the balls
>And I did it because I was poor and now I'm rich and I hate you white devils and OJ is guilty but he got off so nananana

I miss classic Chappelle.

It was a metaphor for him and Comedy Central apparently. I was told this on reddit so I could be wrong and he's just crazy.

What sub?

/r/television

>He seems a lot more bitter and tired
that'll happen when you don't use your drug of choice anymore

What's the community like over there? I only know about /r/movies.

>>So me and Chip were hanging out
Chip was driving and we came to a red light, then a cop pulled up next to us and Chip says "Dave.....*exasperated breath* I'm gonna race him."

It's about building a rapport with him and generating interest for when Netflix inevitably pays him another $20 million for him to make 8 episodes of a Chappelle's Show near future. The only problem with this idea is the fact that

This is pretty much how he's feeling right now. Plus the fact Chappelle bent them over to get as much money possible means there's really no reason for him to make the original project Netflix was hoping to get at the end of this deal.

It took a decade plus but Dave finally figured out how to screw Hollywood over in the end. Now he can fuck off back to his farm until he decides it's time to get more millions while sleepwalking through another special or two.

>"Well, nigga sometimes you gotta race. I don't know.

Fuck Dave was good when he wasn't trying to push his racism agenda.

>Netflix's original idea was to get a Chappelle's Show clone
>Dave got $60M for 4 specials instead
>Chapelle's Show will never get made because you actually have to put effort into making those and Netflix can't afford to drop $100M on Dave

It’s great! :D
We’re all intelligent, nihilistic with a wicked sense of humour.

More like

That shit happened when he performed in my town a couple years ago. It fucking sucks that he will probably never return because of some goddamn frat boys disrupting his show.

I can't even blame him at this point. I can imagine he was entertaining the idea for maybe a week before he saw the news about Amy Schumer getting paid $10M for one shitty special.

yeah but he was a lot more subtle about black people struggles this just felt like clap bait for the blm millenial crowd, and you are forgetting people who voted trump because they wanted jobs and the economy back not more establishment politicians siding with corporations

I think he's retarded but I also have no idea what this image is supposed to convey.

That fat pig ruined everything.

>this bitch got $10M for a special?
>I deserve at least $15M for a special, since I'm Dave
>and make it a contract for 4 specials, too

>and you are forgetting people who voted trump because they wanted jobs and the economy back not more establishment politicians siding with corporations

Yet they got just that. MAGA!

i know they didnt get that but people actually thought they were going to get that in the beginning

It's made even worse by the fact that Netflix is paying actual stand up legends with close to thirty years put into their craft the most money possible and then she starts complaining that she should be paid just as much because it's a gender issue thing.

You now understand why we have an electoral college. I for one dread a United States controlled by California and NYC

>stand up legends
Shut the fuck up.

Hi, Amy

Hey there. Want to have sex? It would be your first time.

When your career politicians game everyone so hard they'd rather flip the table and bring in some rando than touch a seasoned politician again, even if they're getting lied to, that means your career politicians have failed at producing a system people trust. I'd rather be lucky they just voted for an asshole instead of revolting.

it's a phoenix

>As for Trump, really only white evangelical christians and a few token minorities actually like him, not accounting for the underage Sup Forums meme squad.
and 50% of the US voter base and more than enough US geographic representative electoral regions

>You now understand why we have an electoral college.
Because the Republicans are whiny babies who rigged the system to allow them to take control over the country every 8 years and drive it into the dirt.

no thanks. i'm not desperate.

10 years ago, I was able to mock and laugh at a dude thinking they were a woman. Now I'd get arrested for it. You'd be bitter and tired too.

The whole only white Christians like trump is a bunch of nonsense. The Republican Party is the white party... it has little to do with religion. I live in in all white middle to upper middle class neighborhood/ town in the dfw area of texas and everyone votes republican and people here are not very religious at all

millennials know him though

too bad hes kinda lame now compared to those days.

hulu

and Disney is starting a streaming service soon

Which is going to be huge because they have literally the entirety of Fox's catalogue on top of their own stuff.

Are you fucking deluded? That entire bit was to highlight how, in his opinion, cops treat whites differently than blacks. The punchline was that, instead of asking for license and registration, cops demand that black people "spread your cheeks and lift your sack".

Dave has always highlighted racial inequalities. I think his parents were professors at Antioch for African American studies, or something to that effect.

>I know it can be hard to grasp but people living in the major cities are not always the best for choosing the direction of a country. City people are disconnected from the hard realities of nature.

Wow. Every word you just said was wrong.

Chappelle's last pre-Netflix special was released during Bush's first term.

He seems a lot more bitter and tired because he's suddenly fucking OLD.

>Everything is funny, until it happens to you.
A lot of people have been making this joke lately, because it keeps happening more and more and people are realizing it.

his shows are /r9k/ reeeing at this point

>“They called him Pilot Boy because he had 19 pilots in Hollywood and everybody passed on him and said his show wasn’t worth it,” “Then when he made $500 million, even though his contract said he should get half of it, they said he made too much for the contract to be valid.” According to Katt, executives offered Dave $50 million on a contract, which is only 10 percent of what he actually made. When Dave protested being grossly underpaid, Katt stated that executives were quick to turn on him. “He said, ‘What do you think my fans are going to say when they find out you offered me 10 percent of what I made you?’ And they said, ‘Your fans will believe that you’re a crazy crackhead by the time you get home.’ ” Katt stated. “By the time he got to Ohio, it was so.”

You are literally a goddamn fucking idiot if you didn't understand that he was saying that he understood that woman

I think you're getting that impression because he was clearly high as fuck

I miss when Chapelle didn't need to inject race into everything and when most of his material were making fun of niggers instead of supporting them

ITT: Sup Forums figures out that Clayton bigsby was just a character Dave played and did not affect his actual beliefs

>affect
Reflect*

>more than enough US geographic representative electoral regions
>when you have to be this specific because you lost the popular vote and even fewer people like him now

I think maybe it's the ACTUAL more land= more people USA

Elecro-Shock therapy at the Looney bin does that to a nigger

>Is Dave going to be ok?

Netflix pays him 20 million per special, he's going to be damn fine, user

>I miss when Chapelle didn't need to inject race into everything and when most of his material were making fun of niggers instead of supporting them

Is this ironic?

I didn't hear twenty minutes of tranny jokes like everyone has been saying.

>he doesn't remember when Dave made fun of nigger crackheads and nigger pimps

he made fun of whites constantly too

Let me guess, he talks about crackheads and police again.

Why is standup so shit?

>bitter and tired

lol. So is this the left's next tactic to try and discredit him once they realized they can't control him? Oh he's bitter. Yeah don't listen to him, just a bitter old man talking hahah.

He speaks to me.

Most blacks would be Republicans if the party wasn't so damn racist. I've never met a single one that didn't seem conservative as fuck when I finally got to talking with them.

No, he doesn't.

...

and that 50 percent has been wittled down with daily critiques of trump in the media and trumps actions and twitter diatribes not presidential at all.

>Most blacks would be Republicans if the party wasn't so damn racist.

More like if the Republican party was willing to increase welfare ten-fold. That's the large reason why blacks vote Dem: dem programs.

Dude gets paid to make 4 Netflix specials a year. He'd better not be getting tired of it all.

>they still think people watch TV
>they think Chapelle isn't popular with anyone who likes stand up even peripherally

there are closer to 50 million illegals than 11 million illegals in America right now but yeah, only half of the true citizenry voted for Trump. You're totally on to something.

Genuine question but is there actually a reason to vote republican besides identity politics?

I know democrats are more likely to put in socialist policies and raise taxes but...

>poorer economy under republicans
>poorer education under republicans
>patriot act under republicans
>2 quagmires under republicans
>policy focused on the already wealthy global elite
>theocracy

Then you add in the racial rhetoric and fear mongering which only helps divide the country....I mean what's the point?

If you're wealthy you get a decent tax cut, and you don't need to worry about cuts to things like Social Security or Medicare because youre already set. If you're rural you probably don't like abortion and love guns. If you're part of the internet counter culture then it's to stick it to those SJW people on twitter.

Pretty much white people, but they're an ever shrinking portion of the population so their vote matters less and less every year. The electoral college can only protect them for so long.

>white evangelicals are enough to carry an election

Please look up the demographics of the US and how they voted, you sound like a complete idiot.

>Pretty much white people
But that's not really true is it? White Republicans are like 49% and a whole 40% are Democrat leaning.

>cuts to things like Social Security and Medicare
When have Democrats advocated for cuts to that?

>But that's not really true is it?
Blacks vote against Republicans 96-4. Hispanics 70-30. Asians 90-10.

The party would not exist or function or be relevant without white people voting for them. For some reason it's so easy for the rest of us to see through the bullshit, but whites either can't or won't.

I'm not a Hillary shiller, but you realize some of those cities on the coasts by themselves have a larger population than a handful of states, right?

>whites can't or won't
Not all. There's clearly a lot that vote Democrat. I can understand whites who vote Republican due to abortion and guns (to an extent I guess because I think the fear tactics are a bit overblown) but GOP STRONK economics and freedom seems to be a sad meme that won't die.
