CHOCOLATE NEWS CANCELLED??? WTF!!!!


Fans of David Alan Grier the comedian and “In Living Color” alumnus, will have to enjoy themselves with his performances on “Dancing With the Stars” for now: his Comedy Central series, “Chocolate News,” has not been renewed, a representative for the network said, confirming a report that appeared on the Web site of The Baltimore Sun, baltimoresun.com. Despite its title, “Chocolate News” was less a news parody than a sketch-comedy show that featured Mr. Grier, above left, playing characters, from fictitious rappers to the poet Maya Angelou, and delivering satirical commentaries about race. The series, which made its debut on Oct. 15 before the presidential election, ran for one 10-episode season.

DAMN THIS SHOW WAS THE BEST THING ON..

Best Show A.C. (After Chapelle)


If yall havent seen Chocolate News yet then yall are missing out. Its not on the Chapelle Show level yet but its damn near close. David Alan Grier has long been an underrated talent and I pray they give this joint room to breath. If you haven't seen any of the episodes, click here to check them out. The Nat Turner skit was a turkey meat lovers dream come true.

Also, last night they did a skit called "Just Say Yes" and the character was eerily similar to Dr. Cornell West. In related news, the real Dr. Cornell West will be in the DMV Friday night at Busboy and Poets. Check out DCFab for more info.
