CBS posted a preview clip for Dave Chappelle’s first Late show interview in ten years and it is amazing.
David Letterman asks Dave Chappelle the question the world has been wondering for years now. What happened to the Chappelle’s Show?
Chappelle answered simply by saying, “Listen, here it is…Technically, I never quit. I’m seven years late for work.”
Does that mean there’s more Chappelle’s Show episodes coming in the near future?
Chappelle has been keeping it very low key ever since the end of the show. Following the third season, Chappelle had an interview with Oprah in 2006 after traveling to South Africa. There were reports that he planned on going back to the show but, he was unsure. However, Comedy Central decided to release the “lost season” and removed any chance of the show returning.
But, it was probably for the better. The comedian and actor commented that he was getting burned out by the work, and he found it more comfortable on the stage, without the problem of Comedy Central executives dictating what he can and cannot do.
This looks like a great and promising interview.
