Summary: The best DVD I'll ever own......
Review: I love the Chappelle Show, and I love this DVD set!

It even had my grandma and grandpa laughing their behinds off!

I, along with everybody else who admires Chappelle, give him credit for being bold and wildly funny. He isn't afraid to cross the line, and it has paid off. He has successfully made the funniest show on television.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Life Is Too Short
Review: People need to start lightening up. Dave Chappelle is a comedian who cracks racial jokes just like Martin Laurence and Chris Rock, yet people don't jump down their throats and attack them. Does it make it any different just because they are stand-up comedians? Despite everything, Dave Chappelle has a gift of being able to make people laugh, which many people wish they had. Whichever way he wishes to utilize it is up to him. Whether you choose to watch his shows or not is on you. But don't judge the man.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Close to comedic brilliance
Review: Possibly the best show to premiere on Comedy Central since South Park, gifted comedian Dave Chappelle's half hour comedy show is a work of near comic brilliance. The first episode, even though it may start out a bit shakey, ends hysterically as Dave introduces us to Clayton Bigsby; a blind, black, white supremicist. Dave also spoofs comercials, various TV shows, and celebrities in general, while delivering hilarious sketches such as "The Mad Real World" in which a token white guy is trapped in a house with a group of the craziest black people on the planet, a music video spoofing R. Kelly's private life, and an autobiographical movie in the spirit of Antwone Fisher where Dave can't help but lie. Season 1 of Chapelle's Show borderlines on juvenile (and in some cases it goes over) but it is undeniably hilarious; the only downside of this DVD set is that Paramount hardly included any extras. It's still at a good price though, and is more than worth buying if you're a fan of the show.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: many enjoy it, few understand it.
Review: some people are so shallow! some people think it is racist against white people, some think it portrays african american people in a bad way. Does anyone realize his entire show is a mockery of these stereotypes and how some people are so shallow they actually believe in them. Dave Chappelle has a brilliant mind, as does Chris Rock. They designed their comedy to poke fun at these people, and some people who watch their comedy think it is simpleminded and childish. Wake up, you are childish if you dont get the joke.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: WHAT!?
Review: the dave chapelle show is my favorite show on television, which says something because i am fundamentally opposed to most TV.
dave chapelle is a true artist. he uses comedy to dissect, with a surgeon's skill, enormous racial/social agitations within a five minute sketch. the result: the way it really is, with you and i laughing hysterically at it. not for the anal-retentive or the [...] laugh for once, you'll be dead soon.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hatas wanna hate, lovas wanna love.....
Review: This is by the one of the funniest show of all time. I have been a big Dave Chappelle fan in counting his films like "Screwed", "Half Baked", and I loved him in "Blue Streak". I didn't know what to expect from his show when the first episode, and through it I thought it was ok till the (...) sketch where Dave plays black white supremacist. I laughed and I laughed till I couldn't breathe anymore. Then when I heard these DVD's were coming out, I knew I had to buy this. This is a great collection to have in your DVD collection. I know I will be purchasing the second season as well when it comes out.

The special features are audio commentary with Dave himself and co-creator Neal Brennan on 5 episodes. It also has Bloopers and deleted scenes and "ask a black dude with Paul Mooney"(unaired footage). And remember, this is uncensored!!!These are the episodes and their description.

Episode 1- Dave plays a blind white supremacies (aka white power!)
episode 2- Dave plays a crack addict and visits a elementary school ("aka drugs and alcohol, have ruined my life")
episode 3- Dave makes fun of the classic film the roots (aka "I told you all not to give me a real baby")
episode 4- Dave awards women with great NY (...)(you got great (...)")
episode 5-Dave reflects on Great Moments in hookup history (aka "would anyone want to take this drunk, (...), lady home")
episode 6- Dave makes fun of the "Real World" (aka "I'm bad, Tyrese you stabbed my dad")
episode 7- Dave makes fun of the matrix and pretty women (aka "you know what, you got to get the fu^& out of here")
episode 8- Dave talks about hook-up history (aka "(...) in the popcorn")
episode 9- Dave pokes fun at Godzilla and Grand Theft Auto
episode 10- Dave makes fun of R. Kelly with his new I wanna pee on you ( aka "haters wanna hate, lovers wanna love, I don't even know none of thee above I wanna piss on you")
episode 11- Dave buys a camera and sees peoples thoughts etc. (aka turns those headphones up, I can't hear out of my left ear. What!")
episode 12- Dave shows what happens when interracial families switch (I'm from the streets g-g-g-unit")
A must buy DVD, I love this freaken show!

Summary: EXTREMELY HILARIOUS!!!
Review: When I first saw Dave Chappelle in the mid 90's, I felt that he was a pretty decent run-of-the-mill comic....UNTIL NOW!!! I think he's a comedic genious by pushing the envelopes of social issues and making us laugh at ourselves. He takes risks and doesn't hold any punches by doing so. Do I consider myself an 'N' word? Not by any means...however, I feel the word takes on a more humorous and less threatening meaning...we can't act like the word doesn't exist; we just have to change our way of thinking about it. I've heard Dave use the 'N' words toward white people in his sketches as well!!!! He has taken a word that was used to make African-Americans feel inferior and less than human and diluted it to a universal terminology for ANYONE OF ANY RACE!!! (comedic genious) We as people in today's society must learn not to take life so seriously; times change, people change, and words change meaning over time (...)
DAVE CHAPPELLE GETS MAD PROPS FROM THE ATL!!!! KEEP DOING YOUR THING!!!!! I cant wait 'till the SECOND season comes out on DVD!!!
