Chappelle's Show - Season Three
Is anybody else as excited about this as I am? Granted, it's gonna be hard to top two outstanding seasons, but from what I saw preview-wise the other day...looks good.

1. So, why did he quit again?

4. He quit because Comedy Central wanted complete control of the show
When he first signed the contract and started doing the show, Dave got complete control over the writing process. Part of his $50 million deal was that Comedy Central had more say in the writing process.

3. It's not really the 3rd season, is it?
It's just sketches that didn't make the cut during the first two seasons.

I love Chappelle, and I hope he comes back. Soon.

6. From what I understand...
...is that Chappelle's writer said that several new skits were filmed but Chappelle kept having an issue with the finished product: "The skits are too racist, etc." The writer kept telling him that it was essentially the same stuff they've been doing the previous two seasons and that he saw no problem with them. So the writer quit and Chappelle walked away.

I still want to see them.
