Damon Wayans Criticizes 'Dave Chappelle's Specials': "Are They Speeches Or Specials?"
- Thread starter I love Latina women
- Start date
Dave isn’t 50 yet. I thought his Netflix specials were funny, with Sticks and Stones being the funniest of the bunch. For me, Carlin’s best specials came in the 90s and after when he was already over the age of 50.I said at this point in their careers (in their 50s) and yes that is my opinion. Overall I got Dave ahead of Carlin on my list of Comedy GOATs but his last few specials IMO have been trash and not funny. I get a few chuckles but nothing more and the wisdom he think he bestowing is not that moving or thought-provoking. Like I said with the social, political and economic turmoil of the world we are in, Dave has a lot of material to pull from but he’s sticking with trans/LGBTQ and the shyt just ain’t that funny to me or something I care about enough to hear a nikka speak on for an hour

Biggest quote is “no one is four specials in a year funny” meaning that NetFlix is potentially cheapening Chappelle’s prestige/brand a bit (I’d say especially to younger audiences) by releasing so much of his content that’s essentially the same.
The irony is that you could potentially argue they’re doing what Comedy Central tried to do, but just more subtlety since they’re giving Dave full creative freedom.

Not to much on Damon.. ain nobody above criticism/reproach.
I agree with the sentiments here
Most of us can’t relate to identity politics (LGBT topics) and after a few specials shyt just gets exhausting.. doesn’t matter if it’s a stand up, acceptance speech, interview etc.
circling back around to the same topic that you covered damn near 4-5 years ago, to where we can pinpoint exactly what your content will consist of is reductive. Everything doesn’t have to be under the lens of a rainbow microscope.
still a GOAT, but enough already. that trans comedian that killed themself was Dave’s friend and I get he wants to honor his friend’s legacy by calling out her/his oppressors, but gah damn
We get it! All this for a damn tranny that committed suicide because of their own community?

If Netflix wants to film this dude's acceptance speeches or 15 minute rants and air them and pay him for it, so be it. Folks ain't gotta watch. And in fairness he himself isn't labeling these as stand up specials anyway
Them Netflix specials are trash. Several of us been said that, but you coli " 
he dropping gems" types don't wanna hear it. I agree witha lot of the shyt he says but nobody tryna watch a nikka talk about trannies for an hour.

Damn that’s spot on. Who said that? (I didn’t watch the full clip)
And it’s shown to be true. This thread/site is about it as good a barometer as you’re gonna get. White folk don’t count. Women don’t know comedy. So this crop of brothas is the barometer and clearly people have grown weary of Dave

I went to Damon's last standup here in Houston and I like both comedians so this isn't my fight but Chapelle is funnier. I've seen both live.
