minus-squaresin_free_for_00_days@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up51·9 months agoI 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.
minus-squareThe Picard Maneuver@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkarrow-up24·9 months agoYeah, 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.
minus-squaremarkr@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·9 months agoAt least Lenny had some actual real beefs to whine about.
minus-squareElderos@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up1·9 months agoFirst 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.
