It's strange because the general feeling is that SNL was funny when it started, then was awful in the 80s after Eddie and Joe Piscopo left...then got really good in the 90s.

But I feel like SNL hasn't been really good in like 15-20 years now.

That last era where they had guys like Will Ferrell and Darrell Hammond was the last time I thought SNL was worth watching.

The show has the occasional good sketch now and then. But it's inconsistent.
I think the casts have mostly been good. To your point the 80's after Eddie, and probably the last 10-11 years been weak. But the cast right before this current gen been nice. They had Bill Hader, Jason Sudekis, Kristen Wiig, Fred Armisen, Kate McKinnon, Rachel Dratch, Andy Samberg... I think the way they restrict the writers causes the show to be wack.

Lol dont be one of those black people breh that can only laugh at one aspect of humor xD

Carlin was a great insight, tbh better than what Dave is doing now.

His Religion set is one of legend.



As a Christian, I don't care what he doesn't get from the word.

Chappelle now is like seeing Jordan on the Wizards. You see flashes every once and a while but it definitely ain't the same.

Dude lost his fastball years ago, and it's clear at this point it aint coming back.

I, for one, welcome our new space overlords.
The oversimplified concept of a well known black celebrity being "On my good side or bad side", "Cancelled or hero", "my nikka or c00n" is so fukking dumb man:mjlol:

Y'all want someone to be famous for 30 years and act in some perfect way without doing anything you dislike. Not only that but if they shake hands with a white man it automatically erases all the advocacy, realness and activism they've done:mjlol:

Come on man humans are more complex than that. If y'all can look at the life of Dave Chappelle and all the work he has done and find more faults than good then I'm afraid you are just angry at everyone and mostly yourself:hhh:

People aren't video game characters. They'll talk to other humans you dislike. They'll sometimes say stuff that's outta pocket, not everything will hit.

But this is Thecoli so if you ain't Nas, Denzel or Obama you a c00n:dead:

Nobody has taken his spot though. I mean Kevin Hart could’ve probably been here but he has 100% overexposed himself. Dave can literally take years off and come back with no problems. Dave is one of the alltime greats now and people still want to see him after all these years. Who has that kinda juice out of the comedians that came after him?
