Remember when he was funny?
I used to love Chappelle. These past couple years don't offend me, they just bore the fuck out of me. Which is not what I look for in entertainment.
Yeah, I gave his most recent specials a shot, but it's mostly just him ranting about his various beefs, which isn't good comedy.
Like, there are a handful of decent jokes, but the pacing sucks because he wants to air out all this dirty laundry in between.
First content I watched of him was a special on Netflix years ago, and I just couldn't finish it. Nothing he said punched or was structured as a joke. It really felt he was just having boring discussions with himself.
