This is a really funny set! I was lucky enough to be in the audience when this got recorded, so it is amazing to watch it again a few years later! The picture quality and editing is flawless. I'm hoping to see a lot more sets from Dave's vault get released this way on Netflix eventually.
I really thought this was filmed in 2017 but apparently this was filmed in 2015. He was sharp and good but a little rusty and a little uncoordinated in some ways.
Needs to work on his stuff. But still way better than any other these comedians these days. He is the best.. Louis CK is good too but no others can touch these two especially Dave.

Dave Chappelle live must be quite a treat I imagine. Seeing him on stage you can feel he's natural, he's experienced, he's one of the best ever in the genre. The material isn't always good, the premises aren't always fresh but he manages to always makes us laugh with his manneurisms and twists. Not the best comedy special he's done but still very good!
I'm giving this special a 9, not a 10, because I'm leaving Dave room to improve. I honestly can't find flaw with this performance, but watching it made me feel like there's still more to come, and it will be even better. If I give this a 10 and he puts out a better set, what then?
Of the two Netflix sets out so far (this and 'Age of Spin'), I liked this one slightly more, but the difference isn't much. They're both really good.
Without spoiling anything, what you get here is a new Dave Chappelle that retains all the qualities of the old one. His comedy is very much still 'Chappelle' material, whatever that means, but with longer sets he has a chance to make a few statements and show his intelligence as well. Don't worry, though, he doesn't sacrifice laughs to make points or badger you with political views. He simply mixes it up a bit more, uses his time wisely and capitalizes on the opportunity to deliver a much more intimate set than anything he's produced before now.
It's Dave Chappelle as good as ever, back with new material. If IMDb let me, that's all I would have written. If you like great comedy sets, you'll like this.

I don't know what people are complaining about. This was really good. Give it a try!
