David Alan Grier as Maya Angelou
To say David Alan Grier's Chocolate News picks up where Chappelle's Show left off — in some ways — undermines the ingenuity of both comedians. But for those who were desperately seeking a black satirical take on all things Election 2008, his show is a comedic godsend.
As proof: Take a listen to Farai's hilarious conversation with Grier on today's show — which included an impromptu impression of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright warning against a specific type of cancer affecting black men.
And for good measure, follow that up with a few promo clips on the show's Web site. Chocolate News premieres tonight on Comedy Central.
