This guy is kind of right. White people don't watch Tyler Perry, white people don't care about Tyler Perry. IF the concern with these types of programs is how it promulgates your culture on a national/global scale than I'd say Chapelle Show in a way was a bigger negative threat cause it was a program that was observed by a multitude of cultures and ethnicity's. White people love them some Chapelle show. I would know. But the difference is a lot of them don't know how to disassociate Tron, Rick James and Tyrone Biggums from actual black society. Dude is right, that is why Chapelle left, he felt the show becoming a parody of its actual original intent.

^ I don't know about y'all, but I read that as satirical. There is a fine line between satirical comedy and exploiting black people. I don't think Dave Chappelle did that at all. I've watched his standup before the show and the show is right on line with how he tells his jokes. I guess some people can't tell the difference between the two.

Great point. It would be hard for someone to dispute this.
In the Mad Real World skit, he had the white guy get stabbed by a black guy while in the house.

I don't think he is funny at all. He puts out an image that is not positive. I saw an article which I'm looking for as to little male kids of african decent dressing up in their sister and mothers clothes to be like him. As I see it now he is nothing positive to the community that he supports.
But as always to each their own. I think Carlos Mencia is funny but then again he steals jokes from what they say and hes all racist jokes so yeah...

he makes typical "black films" with typical "black stereotypes". im asian btw.
his movies are entertaining to some extent but when other black creative minds/directors make movies where they step out of the typical "black film" genre, its much more interesting to see because its not soo much expected. when tyler perry put out a movie i think "oh another movie with madea, relationship drama..etc." but when spike lee puts out a movie i think the total opposite.
