It’s time to call the comeback complete. After walking away from a big payday for a third season of “Chappelle’s Show,” many wondered what Dave Chappelle would do next. Well, after some time away from spotlight, he returned to the stand-up stage, touring extensively over the past couple of years, and a couple of weeks back, he gave TV a test again with a hosting stint on “Saturday Night Live.” And next year, fans will have plenty to look forward to.
Netflix has announced they’ll be releasing three, all-new Dave Chappelle stand-up specials in 2017. One will be an original stand-up show produced by Netflix, with two others are previously unreleased gigs from Chappelle’s vault, with all three slated to debut simultaneously next year.

So get ready as Chappelle is coming hard with hours more of entertainment in 2017.
