still waiting to hear how this makes Chappelle more sophisticated than Tosh or MacFarlane (not saying he isn't, but this isn't really a good example)

I did watch Chappelle's Show when it was on! Every episode, and bought the dvds years later, even though an ex still has them.
I honestly did not know the genesis of "the itis" and I am now finding it hilarious because Chappelle aimed high enough in that instance to go over my head with my lack of experience/knowledge. It's kind of awesome in a way that I didn't get everything and I should watch the show yet again.
haha i cannot tell if mh is fucking with us by casually using "shuck and jive" in this way
nah, I just deploy terms like that on threads about racism without any ironic intent (lol)

funny that someone mentioned p.g. wodehouse cuz p.g. wodehouse was my first exposure to the nword; i had no idea what it was and in retrospect it's an amazing stroke of luck that i didn't use it out loud in the year or so between reading it and finding out what it meant

I think this could accurately be described as "sophisticated" unless you go to like Ron Paul rallys

hilarious because I'm laughing at my own ignorance, and because holy shit did Chappelle cut deep with one throwaway comment
― mh, Wednesday, 18 January 2012 22:49 (twelve years ago) link
*rallies
btw I'm not arguing that they didn't do things that were sophisticated or that the average viewer wouldn't get, but I still don't think its a great descriptor of the show in general
― frogbs, Wednesday, 18 January 2012 22:51 (twelve years ago) link
I think Chappelle probably had a more nuanced view of race in America than any tv show in history

besides some references to things more deep-seeded in black culture I'm not sure what it is the average viewer doesn't get. I think everyone understood that Chappelle was smarter with racial humor than most other shows.
btw it's been like 6-7 years since I last watched most of the episodes as I don't really find the show nearly as funny as I used to. so maybe some things did go over my head but I don't think the show was at all hard to get.
