I'm gonna watch it and I'll post on here what I thought...

I was dissapointed when I saw him live, but he made up for it on the MTV awards...plus his HBO shows have both been golden so far, and I'm sure this one will be good. There was an article in Rolling Stone last week about his new special, one of the jokes they quoted was something like:

"The USA is mad at France for not helping in the war in Iraq....what is that?? Do you think Mike Tyson needs help to whoop Urkels ass?!?!"

Chris Rock is edgy, somewhat racist even, but always always always funny (except for his live show I seen at the Improve).

Actually, I even liked his half hour show that was on HBO for a while

Did he have crappy material at that improv or were his jokes too offensive?

Both...he came out with something like 'Wow...lotta crackers in here tonight..' lol he's funny, not racist, you just have to be able to laugh at it instead of getting mad...his jokes were pretty weak tho...but he was practicing for his MTV gig...so a lot of the good jokes I did hear him say on MTV...so basically we were just a warm up crowd to get him in the swing of things...I'm sure he toured a few cities before taping this special just to practice some material..

Not bad at all man....imo, not as good as his last two, but it was still pretty damn funny. Basic Rock, funny, witty, edgy...he tackled everything from Kobe to Iraq to abortion... worth a rent if it ever comes on DVD, or if ur a big CR fan, it's worth buying for sure.

im watching it now

No you're not.
