Chappelle Show best battle

    Yeah. I read that. What I meant was, I was surprised that certain sketches drew the number of video hits they did. Just a matter of opinion. Not a true complaint, I guess.

    The Biggum's Fear Factor is very high on my list. Glad to see someone else recognize it for the greatness it was.

    But nothing was better than Clayton Bigsby.

    Just a great, great show. I have yet to meet a person who didn't like that show. It's impossible to dislike.

    Of the few sketches I've seen -- yes, I'm terribly late to the Dave Chappelle Party -- the phone chat with Lil Jon stands out most.

    My favorite character is Faze 2. His orgasmic whinny as Tron puts the blunt into the juicer is wonderful. Also, Lysol's "I don't feel safe" might be my favorite Chappelle's Show line ever.

    That said, "Get your fat ass out before I cut some bacon off your back."

    My favorite line from Mad Real World:
    Tron, when the white guy first arrives: "What's the square root of this apartment?"

    Ask my friends that all the time.

    When I read Sonner say "the right one won" I assumed it was Mad Real World. Though, as I skimmed the article (holy shit was it long) I realized it's about a toss-up for me between MRW and Clayton Bigsby.

    I sleep on the Mad Real World to an extent. I don't give it enough credit, but it still falls behind Clayton Bigsby.

    I really need to buy the series and re-watch it. I have no idea why I don't already own it. That annoys me.

    I also like the When Keepin It Real Goes Wrong where the chick keeps saying "I don't like when people play on my phone!!!" I still say that way more often than I probably should.

    I miss Dave. Saw him at the DC Improv during his prime and he sat at our table (toward the back of the room) for a few minutes during one of the opening acts. Didn't say much, but goddamn was that cool.

    I kind of skimmed through the article (I read it in full later), but the Clayton Bigsby one has always been my favorite, so no argument there.

    But reading through a little bit, god there were some incredible sketches there. I have the whole series on DVD -- I have to get that from the shelf and view some of these again.

    I thought I was the only one who thought 'Mad Real World' was his best sketch.
    Also, love James the XXXXXX-hatin' dolphin.

    I travelled a lot for work and the DVDs of season 1 and 2 kept me going in places where the TV service was spotty. As others have mentioned, Mad Real World was one of those sketches (SKITS!) that I did not realize other people found as funny as I did.

    I still tell my buddies that they have to sit down on the toilet to pee and also enjoy randomly asking for a "Banana Cognac" or asking "do it got weed in it?"

    I saw the Rick James sketch with 2 buddies on a road trip to Minneapolis when it originally aired and we were doing the lines all that weekend, had no idea how it would blow up.

    Man I loved that show.

    So many awesome lines in that sketch

    I didn't have sex with Katie. Lysol had sex with Katie.
