At first I expected the show to be a "Daily Show" or "Colbert Report" tailored to an African American audience like BET. But instead, the show turned out to be nothing but racist jokes and offensive depictions of races. Some defend it drawing parallels to the Chapel Show, but that show was funny not because it talked about stereotypes every episode, it was funny because it had comedy. Some of Chapels sketches were racist, but think of the Rick James and Prince sketches that became house hold catch phrases over night. This show however tries to get a few "hars" from constant and unending black jokes and rehashing of stereo types. If the comedy was not focused so much on race and deviated from its constant race humor, it would not be a bad show.

Take all the tongue & cheek humor of Richard Pryor and throw it in the toilet. This program has no problem with reversing the racist jokes of the KKK (which are revolting) and make everyone else look like a total idiot... taking two steps back from racial equality.

Dave Chapelle managed to make outrageous sketches on Comedy Central making fun of *everyone*, the writers of this show just strive to hate everyone who isn't black.

I dream of a day where people can just be people... and being Irish, my people were slaves too... so GET OVER IT.

David, you're better than this... you're just being a HATE puppet.

i thought this show was hysterical.yes,it is offensive,crude and vulgar,but so what.the show does seem to make fun of white people(which i happen to be)but that's exactly what it is--fun.people need to get over themselves and stop being so uptight.besides, a lot of the jokes pretty much reflect how many white people behave.if you can't take a joke,then turn off all your TVs and hide yourself in a cave.i don't think the jokes are cruel or mean,either.anyway,i laughed my butt of so much i had tears running down my eyes.David Alan Grier is the star of the show and plays most of the characters.i think he's very funny.i'm gonna try and catch this show every time it's on.it's the only show on The Comedy Network(here in Canada)which i have actually found worth watching. 10/10

DAG is a comedic genius period and I was kind of shocked the show didn't get continued after the first season. But what was delivered is timeless and should be considered as another worthy notch and chapter in regards to this man's legendary career.
