Almost one decade ago, comedian Dave Chappelle<\/a> found wild success with his Comedy Central TV show Chappelle’s Show<\/em>. However, the TV show, which spawned numerous memes, also changed Chappelle’s stand-up audiences, and eventually led to the star’s self-imposed hiatus from comedy.<\/p>\n

Now, it appears that Chappelle may have resurfaced on the New York comedy scene. The Los Angeles Times is reporting<\/a> that the comedian was spotted at three different on-stage appearances at New York’s famed Comedy Cellar recently.<\/p>\n

Chappelle wasn’t alone, however. He was joined on-stage at some points by other famous comedians, including Marlon Wayans and Chris Rock<\/a>. Surprisingly, Chappelle even joked with Rock about possibly doing a joint comedy tour. Reportedly, Rock took the joke seriously and the two began to work out their schedules, all on-stage. The Times report quotes Rock as saying, “By Halloween I could do dates” and quotes Chappelle as saying, “This could be the show: fireside chats with Chris Rock.”<\/p>\n

Of course, whether the elusive Chappelle was serious is still a valid question. Still, the prospect of the comedian making a comeback is an exciting one for his fans, who have presumably grown up enough to stop heckling Chappelle by shouting “I’m Rick James, bitch!” constantly.<\/p>\n
