Chappelle’s Show offered Dave Chappelle’s street-smart, thought-provoking and hilarious brand of comedy. The series premiered on January 22, 2003, the Comedy Central Network. The show ran for two complete seasons and a third, truncated season (dubbed The Lost Episodes).Hailed by critics the show was a little bit of stand-up and a whole lot of hellacious sketches, Chappelle’s Show brought the funk and created the noise. Not since The Richard Prior Show had television presented such groundbreaking social commentary and “shock and awe” programming.
