    The cable network might have found "Chappelle's" worthy replacement in Chocolate News.
  2. We get the feeling Grier is much more concerned with scoring a laugh than raising an issue, which makes his well-placed jabs all the more clever.

    Chocolate News is a moderately tasty, low-nutrition snack--the kind that, with apologies to perhaps the next ethnic frontier, will leave you hungry a half-hour later.

    As funny, if not funnier than Chappelle Show. Just as powerful as "I'm Rick James, b***h!", people are going to sing and hum Phat Man�39;s 'No Child Left Behind' for months to come. The first two episodes were flawless. Shows like Frank Tv highlight Frank's ability to do impersonations, but I've gone countless episodes without cracking a smile ( He was a lot funnier on Mad TV). David Alan Grier is a Comedic Genius! Can't wait for episode 3! Expand

    I am just shocked that this show is getting good reviews. to me it looked painfully unfunny, but after watching it i realized it is only just unfunny. i miss dave chappelle. at least they know this guy won't bail. he'd be stupid to give up on a job with his lack of talent. Expand

    This show was alot better when it was called The Chappelle Show. D.A.G.'s handlers just have him screaming about how white people are dumb and black people can't do anything wrong. Fail. Expand
