I think he's just really worried about the quality of this new season.

 

I think he's just going to keep doing "shows" til he has enough quality material to make a season. I can't fault him. At this point, I'm pretty sure CC will bend over backwards for him considering how fucking over he is.

They're also pushing back the release of the Season 2 DVD set because Paramount wants to wait for the season to debut.

 

My thought: Why did they even bother advertising the debut of season 3 if they didn't have enough episodes in the can to guarantee them airing?

Rumor is that Dave's had a nervous breakdown over the pressure of the new season.

 

Could be complete crap, but the longer the delay, the more I tend to think there's a possibility that it's true.

I'm thinking that either he's still under the weather or he's got some "personal demons"...

Ding ding ding, we have a winner! This is one of three things:

 

1. drug problem

 

2. artistic fear of being put under so much pressure to produce for the 3rd season

 

3. something we don't know about, like some close relative died & he's depressed, or he accidentally cut off one of his balls while shaving them, or some other stupid thing like that.

 

 

 

And godDAMNit why do they keep pushing back the DVD release date? If they do it for too long, everyone will forget about the fucking show and the sales will suck.

That's what I get for cheering for the "Season 3 begins May 31st" commercial. If Chappelle's Show doesn't begin soon, the terrorists win.

I wouldn't be surprised if he only did one more year. I think he's putting way too much pressure on himself because of the success of season two. He has to stop thinking that he needs to have a Rick James type skit from now on to consider the show and himself a success.

This sucks, but now I won't go broke on May 24th.

 

Hopefully Dave's not in trouble.

TVShowsonDVD is saying that the Season Two DVD is still set to come out at the end of the month regardless of the current delays of season three......

I felt Season 1 was either a hit or miss episode. 1 episode would be off the wall awesome, then the next would have maybe 1 funny 3:00 sketch.

 

Season 2 was a lot better, and I really can't think of 1 sketch from that season that wasn't any good.

I don't know if it was just an urban myth or something, but I vaguely recalling something along the lines of their being a pending lawsuit/complaint from Rick James' family about the Rick James skit which hasn't been on TV since his death.

I just saw that shit like a month ago.

It aired at least 3 times during the "Top 5 Episodes Week", on the wednesday night spot, then the replay on Saturday, and I'm pretty sure again on tuesday.

Actually the rumor (never confirmed BTW) going around was that the reason for the season two set being delayed is because of the fact that the people owning the rights to Rick James's music wanted a shitload of money for the rights to use his music in the Rick James episode. Which created problems since Paramount is notoriously cheap about paying for music (which is why the season one DVD set omitted just about all of the musical guest segments from the DVD set).

Paramount, the same company that keeps fucking over Friday the 13th fans about "not having the unrated versions" and other awesome stuff that could've been used on the box set last year.

TV Shows on DVD.com confirmed with Paramount that as of now, the Season 2 DVD is not being delayed and is still coming out on May 24.

i'm actually glad there is a delay. now, i'm a DC fan but seriously, I saw this guy everywhere (over exposure imo) and i just couldn't stand EVERYONE and their mom screaming his catch phrases. yes, he's a pop culture icon now more than ever and maybe that's why he's 'depressed'. at his stand up show in sacramento, he had to tell fools to shut up cause they kept screaming 'i'm rick james, bitch!' and 'yeaaahhh okaaay!' through out his routine (he also looked visibly irked out).

 

you know he'll come back with some fire though. the people are waiting. he also has that 'dave chappelle: block party' concert dvd coming out where he reunites the fugees.

that scuks, I would be mad if I went to his show and had to listen to that crap, cuz I enjoy Dave's standup. His hbo special in 2000 is a great example.
