Comedy Central Presents...
Welcome to this thing we call Chappelle's Show. Comedian Dave Chappelle takes his street-smart brand of comedy to another level in Chappelle's Show: Season One Uncensored DVD Boxed set. Chappelle's hilarious and defiant point-of-view brought to bear in these twelve outrageous episodes consisting of sketches, pop culture parodies and live musical performances.

"...one of the best shows Comedy Central has ever brought to the table...the skits are absolutely hilarious.  CurrentFilm.com
"...plenty of outrageous, daring, and politically incorrect humor...hilarious...  Ivana Redwine, About.com
"...genuinely ingenious and hilariously outrageous - not to mention courageous.  New York Post

Editor's Note
Comic genius Dave Chappelle trains his satirical eye on the vagaries of pop culture and race relations in his outrageous Comedy Central series CHAPPELLE'S SHOW. The edgy funnyman brandishes his unique style of streetsmart comedy to skewer everything from car commercials to the KKK, blending sketches, parodies, stand-up, and musical guest performances into a hilarious sendup of modern American life. This two-volume set presents all 12 episodes from the show's first season in uncensored and unblurred versions.

Professional Reviews

Entertainment Weekly
"It's his determined playfulness that makes his embrace of ethnic and racial stereotypes not offensive but refreshing." 02/27/2004 p.79

Rolling Stone
"The sketches are inspired." 03/18/2004 p.76

Entertain Your Brain! 9 of 10
Chappelle's Show has a basic setup. Chappelle comes out to a live audience and introduces (or sometimes warns) them about the upcoming skit. In between, he does a little stand-up, usually pertaining to the topic of the skit. The skits are very risk-taking too. In what could have been a huge water-cooler skit had this show been on a bigger network involved Chappelle portraying a KKK leader who has been blind from birth. His character has no idea that he is black, but he is so important to the cause that his associates don't tell him that fact...It is going to offend some people, but anyone who would be offended by the show most likely isn't ever watching Comedy Central (or shouldn't be.) If you like smart, no-holds-barred sketch comedy, check this show out. - Shawn McKenzie
