"Chappelle's Show" Shut Down
" In a surprise announcement Wednesday, Comedy Central said that the highly anticipated third season of Dave Chappelle's show will not make its May 31 premiere date.

"Comedy Central has suspended production on the third season of Chappelle's Show until further notice," network spokesman Tony Fox said in a brief statement. "All parties are optimistic that production will resume in the near future."

1. Oh no!
Chapelle is one of the few shows I watch, am getting tired of reruns. Hope his problem allows a return.

3. I had heard that they were having writing problems
They may have spent their ammo the first two seasons. It is tough to keep up that level of writing IMHO. We'll see. I wonder if the ganj had anything to do with this.

5. I wonder if that is the case.
How would anyone ever top the Rick James, or his Prince skits? His routine is almost too good there almost has to be a limit before it burns out, he is burning real bright now.

He ought to take up acting and the Movies.

6. They should spend the cheese and get some more writers
I know once a writer works on a hit show, he/she can roll out to other ventures. Maybe that's what up in Chappelle's camp.

Hope they get it together.
