ocemur Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I don't understand the rotten tomatoes thing. I can find both pages on the site. What's this? https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/dave_chappelle_sticks_and_stones and then this https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/dave_chappelle The 79/90 number is for Dave Chappelle himself. The 29/99 number is for the Sticks and Stones special is that right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pay attention to the vote count though. 16,221 audience members voted and 9 on the tomato meter. A few negative votes will really skew that poll. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmotionallyUnstable Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Gotta say I disagree here. I didn’t find it consistently entertaining.

It was good and the backlash seems overstated... but the wild appreciation seems to likewise be a lot of pent up frustration and not necessarily a true reflection of the quality. It it wasn’t a bad set or anything. Just don’t think it deserves the extremely polar criticism or fawning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But e.g. the Juicy Smollett bit is ? commentary that the late night guys can’t or wouldn’t do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeGOATski Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 This is why I've never given a ***** about Rotten Tomatoes. That special was funny. Comedy is one of the most subjective things, though. Maybe even moreso than music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

row_33 Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 heard that RT declared that only 5 critics would be allowed to judge it and they carried through with 0% support. THEN they opened it to the unwashed and they gave it 99% now the critics are open to a few more and they are somewhat allowed to approve thanks for all this censorship, you are so out of touch....
