Unfortunately Dave chapelle was the only one who sucked ass. I was watching the one where he's at Fillmore, I don't know if its representative of his other work, but it was boring, seriously i laughed twice and haven't watched the second half.
Has he done anything really funny, so i can restore my faith in recent american comedy?
Yeah you probably watched something of his that sucked ass. I (and many others) like Richard Pryor but was bored with Here and Now.
For Dave Chappelle, watch Killing Me Softly. He had another that was very good but I can't remember the name.
...and the obvious ones to check out are his two seasons of Chappelle's Show.:w00t: :w00t:

Actually that might have been the good one. The one that had the Monica Lewinsky jokes.
One of them was rather boring and I can't remember which one it was.
Re: Who's your favourite comedian?
I've always really liked Steven Wright -- just so deadpan. and, though I'd say he's more an actor than a comedian at this point -- Bill Murray.
