Anyone else like the show and like THIS Chris but not the REAL Chris ?


I like the show and I like the kid who played Chris but I dislike the real Chris Rock.


anyone else feel this way?

OH THANK YOU GOD! THANK YOU SO BLOODY MUCH!!! Basil Fawlty

I do! Chris Rock is a traitor of his own race!

I somewhat agree with the OP.

I don't like this show, but some parts of it are quite good, like the father actor. That actor is way too good for this show, now that I think about it.

The wholesome Chris portrayed in this show is definitely far preferable to the loudmouthed & vulgar & racist Chris of real-life.

I can't stand the real-life Chris.

I read an article about him that said he stopped doing his racist rant wherein he calls his fellow blacks the N-word and says he wants to join the KKK and do drive-bys on them...[that rant can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3PJF0YE-x4]

...because "white people in the audience were laughing a little too hard."

So basically Chris Rock wrote and performed a racist rant that he expected his fans to laugh at, and after they actually did, he scapegoated his own racism onto white people. What a total scumbag!

I disagree. Chris Rock is one of my favorite comedians and actors. The kid in the show was funny too. I don't see an issue with either of them.

well, to be honest, the whole show is racist too. To black people, to white people. It's misogynistic, and simply too full of cheap jokes.
I watched 2 and a half seasons, and just can't watch it anymore.
I really wouldn't mind if the jokes were clever and funny, but is fart-jokes level and much like the whole Chris Rock stand up routine.
It's boring, repetitive, vulgar, offensive, dumbed-down and pretty much all around not funny

I have never been a fan of Chris Rock (real). I like the guy that plays him. I would enjoy the show a lot more if Chris Rock was not adding his two cents every two minutes. I wish there was a way to block his narratives out. Perhaps if the sound of his voice was less irritating I wouldn't mind the narratives.
