I'm guessing you made this thread with the hope that people would say Eddie Griffin?
I like them both but Chappelle is clearly funnier. Eddie Griffin is good, but Chappelle is better, and most people would agree. Chappelle Show set a new standard in (black) sketch comedy that still hasn't been duplicated after try after try from Comedy Central. Eddie Griffin...was in Undercover Brother (where he was outperformed by Chappelle even in that) and had a short-lived UPN series with Theo.
As far as standup goes, someone else said it best. You see Griffins and they're funny the first time, but have no rewatchability if you'll excuse the made up word. I watch Dave's and they're funny every time

Ed is about to put out a new special and Chappelle is in his basement lifting weight. I hope he comes back and doesn't turn into a Flip Wilson like story.

what the hell is your problem with chapeezy? he's the goat! accept it.
I love Chappele, I never said I didn't. I own all seasons of Chappelle Show, his 2 specials and films including him (Nutty Professor, Woo, Half Baked, Undercover Brother starring Griffin and Block Party.)
But in stand up, it's Griffin. He speaks on many topics. His stand up set on Jesus, Moses and the bible ect is genius.
