Actor: 'Chappelle's Show' is over
NEW YORK (AP) -- Time to face the facts: Dave Chappelle's hit Comedy Central series isn't coming back, says one of its stars.
" 'Chappelle's Show' is over, man. Done," comic Charlie Murphy told TV Guide. "It took me a long time to be able to say those words, but I can say it pretty easy now, because it's the truth."
Chappelle's sudden "spiritual retreat" to South Africa on the eve of his show's third season has left the series in limbo since May. About half of a new season had been filmed before Chappelle left, Murphy said.
"I'm disappointed it ended the way it did, but I'm not angry with anybody," he said. " 'Chappelle's Show' was like the Tupac of TV shows. It came out, it got everybody's attention, it was a bright shining star, but it burned out and for some strange reason, it burned out quick."
Comedy Central has always said the door is open for Chappelle to return, spokeswoman Aileen Budow said Wednesday.
Network chief Doug Herzog met with Chappelle on June 3, but that has been their last communication, she said.
Murphy, the older brother of comic Eddie Murphy, said his two seasons with Chappelle made him a star.
"Now I can go out and do stand-up," he said. "I'm getting movie offers. It's off
the hook. Me getting to the next level or whatever's going to happen is going to come from the next things I do, but 'Chappelle's Show' served its purpose and I'll always be grateful."

That sucks, he had some much respect,
"Cocaines a helluva drug......"
More seriously, this season wasn't nearly as good as last seasons. Chapelle's comedy is really hit and miss; Some of the sketches are brilliant, some of the others are boring as bat shit.
Gotta give it to the guy though, anyone who can laugh in the face of racism quite the way he does "WHITE POWER!!!!" gets my respect.

I feel empty. This is what Armageddon wil feel like.
Dave Chappelle is alive and well (and playing Las Vegas) (http://www.nytimes.com/2005/11/27/arts/television/27itzkoff.html?8hpib)
the article is too long to cut and paste but the opening bit of his show is worth showing
"Thank you very much for welcoming me back to America," he said, as his first standing ovation of the night subsided.
"In case you haven't heard about me, I'm insane."
In a move that would set the tone for the rest of the evening, he opened with remarks that seemed to address his conflict with Comedy Central, but elliptically, and in racially polarizing terms. "Whatever you do in your life," he said, "do not stand up for yourself, because these white" - let's just substitute the word "people" here - "will beat you down."

im pretty sure it was season 2. but then again, there is probably a 50% chance of that being totally wrong.

Hopefully now we won't have to constantly hear that "I'm rick James bitch" phrase spouting out of unfunny peoples mouths.
Chapelle had some ok shit but he was just another Eddy Murphy with updated slang. How many times can you tell the same joke?

A Word Before you Begin
This account of Dave Chappelle's fall from grace has been pieced together by me, a retired public relations executive who wishes to remain anonymous. my contacts, many of whom were closely related to the individuals involved, enabled me to fairly accurately recount the events that took place. You can take this for what you wish, but it is the truth — the abhorrent byproduct of the industry I used to hold to such a high esteem.
I have written this account without the need for embellishments or exaggerations for the truth is appalling enough. Let this site serve as a drawn curtain to the entertainment industry which is blindly adored by the entire world.
i love a good conspiracy but im just not bored enough to read all of that

thanks for your input there^^^^^^
that website is cool - hard to believe though... especially when they say he was including new skits (ie oprah) in retalliation to his trouble... the skits would've been filmed long before their airing.

Man that was the weirdest thing I've read all year. Truth of not they need to make a movie on it. It would almost be up there with the Usual Suspects!
the 'Usual Suspects' would have Bill Cosby as the Keyser Soze character...
heeheh
Maybe he can go an purify himself in the waters of lake of Minnitonka...
As should we all , or at least me.

Bullshit if the third season doesn't happen, i bought the second season on DVD the other day. The extras on there are gold the extened Rick James and Charlie Murphy interviews on each other are piss funny, so are the two extra true hollywood stories by Charlie Murphy, I love the bit when he's at a BBQ in California and Charlie Murphy is third in line to get his Sausage and theres only three left and a gang banger pulls up behind him. Hilarious.

He was freaking out too much about the pressure of being labeled America's funniest comedian (at the moment), imagine trying to write a skit or a gig with that much pressure, no wonder he ran away from it all a couple of months back. Poor guy, sucks to have that much pressure.
Love the ep where he gets John mayer to play for some "white folk", then gets him to play guitar in a barber shop, only to realise that "black folk only gooove to a beat" and pull out the drums lol.
