Netflix Dave Chappelle: The Dreamer

[Disanthrope]

This was dope. Hell of a storyteller and a comedian as usual

If Dave Chappelle posted the exact same things he says on stage here, your safe ass would be wacking his posts... pretend im lying

 

[Koltrain]

This was funny... the approach more light hearted than the last couple specials... The story about the attack had me Rollin

 

[BlackRain]

Nah needs to continue .

Nah some of the reactions and reviews even from die hard fans is that he's beating a dead horse at this point. As good as he is to keep leaning into it is actually beneath him

 

[Loneshot]

Damn...I think I chuckled once...but not very good in my opinion. Not sure what it was, but it just wasn't funny to me. The last few specials have been less funny than the last one. I think he's just getting too old or he got too rich, maybe both, but I think it's the rich part. I'm surprised he continued the trans theme into another special.

I told my lady while watching that I would be pissed if I paid to see that live. It felt like he was just venting.

 

[Infamous114]

Variety frames it like that's all he did throughout the special. And nasty for them to grab that quote to emphasize their point

I thought it was funny when he lit the cigarette and the ashes fell and the woman sitting in the front made a motion like she was trying to get out of the way of it

Media did this shit the first time an acted like there was some sort of malice intended just terrible

Yeah but he intentionally structured his show to make that part easier for them lmao he knows how the click economy works

 

[Rubato]

For every person that reads the headline and says “this guy is just the worst,” there are 5 others saying “Chappelle got a new special?!”

 

[genocide_cutter]

They already posting that George Carlin clip again. You know which one Im talking about.

 

[Freeman]

Wasn't bad. Not too many lol moments for me but I enjoyed watching him have his full circle moment. This is quite a run. Salute.

[Goldie]

It's not in his top 5, but it was a solid special.

 

[rip.dilla]

Loved it!


Great storyteller too apart from the jokes ...


What he said about Will Smith not enjoying the rest of his night at that Oscars was real shit ...

People will always be offended at Dave ... I think he's used to that now


4/5

 

[Rubato]

The disabled walk was craaazy lol

 

[Royal]

It was decent, I didn't have no deep belly laugh though

Idk the handicap jokes were meh,

The trans jokes were clever and placed really well.

His submersible joke wasn't funny at all

The story of his attack was entertaining

The dreamer piece was good. My favorite part

 

[Royal]

I thought it was funny when he lit the cigarette and the ashes fell and the woman sitting in the front made a motion like she was trying to get out of the way of it

Lol them ashes were flying everywhere. But he took like two hits and then put it out lol. Just waving around lol.

 

[rip.dilla]

I noticed a female laughter louder more than anyone else in the room... Even when he wasn't saying anything funny


Uncontrollable

 

[BlackRain]

Lol them ashes were flying everywhere. But he took like two hits and then put it out lol. Just waving around lol.

Apparently that's just something he does when places tell him not to smoke inside. Will just light it, couple pulls then put it out

Question for y'all

This might need to be a thread but I keep seeing "it wasn't belly aching funny" or "rotflmfao funny".

Does the material from comedians you like need to be that way all the time?

Like for me, Deon Cole is checking the belly aching funny box for me. He's had a pretty good resurgence lately. I also know I'm not getting toi much social commentary from him.

I know what I'm getting from Dave and can appreciate that not all his material is gonna be just a Chappelle show skit.
