Business as usual for the television industry where screwing up a good thing and mediocrity is a path to career advancement. :thumdown:

Wow...50 million for season 3 and 4, plus a cut of DVD sales.
They werent kidding when they said "IM RICH, BEOTCH!".
I hope this doesnt drag out too long. No matter how funny it may be at times, seeing an episode for the 'fif' time gets lame.

Yeah, between seeing reruns of the same episode 10 times and hearing every white boy in school proclaim themselves as Rick James, bitch, I've gotten sick of Chappelle's Show. The new season better be good.

I heard the network censors are taking the edge off Chapelle's humor because of the inconsistancy & lack of any guidance by the FCC threats ...
$500,000. per occurance & the Stars can be fined the same amount also
the problem is you don't know whats allowed until after its said, and some organized group floods the FCC with calls
Black Clouds coming on the horizon of creativity... Minnie Pearl , and Yakoff Smirnoff as the future of Comedy!
Cheerleading in Texas now must be sex free ... that means that you can't hold a Female or Male up in the air with one hand touching the behind ... The Jackass Legislator in Texas said it is filthy, and causes pregnancy ( he didn't explain how )
Country's going nuts !

I can't stand cheerleading either ... but it's totally harmless ... and I can't recall getting sexually aroused watching it ... Of course Texas Legislators might !! ;)

Yeah, Im with al of you on the Rick James thing. The first day after it aired, Some guys at work and me said it a few timesback and forth when we thought we were the only ones who had seen it. Within a week, I never wanted to hear it again. I even went to a bar with a friend and his girlffriend, and SHE hadnt seen the show til two weeks later. She kept saying it OVER and OVER, and even said it to the bartender. I was humiliated. :o

some cheerleaders are hot.
some cheerleaders are cows.
the texas legislature doesn't have one honest, non-corrupt man in the entire lot, texas politics are pathetic.

Brown kids repeating the lines are just as annoying.
Isn't it sad to think that this guy is now Off Camber's #1 poster? :saywhat:
the only thing annoying is you white boys running around with gold chains and sideways hats with folgers cans on your little 2 seat ricers :gomer:, now go buy a nice pair of slacks and a dress shirt and dress like a normal person, you're graduating, time to pretend like you can actually TRY to be professional :p
As far as I know, the FCC has no jurisdiction on Comedy Central as it is not free-to-air broadcast.

Not yet anyway. Sen. Ted Stevens of Alaska is pushing for cable networks (including premium channels, not just basic cable) to be brought under the same FCC 'obscenity' guidelines as broadcast networks. :thumdown:

The primma donna's in Hollyweird don't want to show skin in High Def. They're afraid that their pimples, surgery scars and needle tracks will show. < /end conspiracy theory >
