Netflix Says Dave Chappelle's Comedy Specials Are Its Most-Watched Ever

in LifestyleWords By Jonathan Sawyer

Whether or not Dave Chappelle delivered quality content with his new Netflix specials may still be up in the air, but one thing is for certain: people payed attention. According to the streaming service, which just released its first quarter letter to shareholders, Dave Chappelle: Collection 1 was their most viewed comedy special to date.

“The triumphant return of a comedy legend in Dave Chappelle: Collection 1 was our most viewed comedy special ever,” the company stated. “We are also finding this to be true in international markets as well, with comedian Gad Elmaleh’s Gad Gone Wild, a breakout hit in France last quarter.”

Netflix continues to place an emphasis on comedy, not only (reportedly) paying Chappelle $60 million USD for his three specials (one yet to be released), but they are also rumored to be dishing out $40 million USD for two Chris Rock installments.

Also worthy of note, the company is inching toward a record 100 million subscribers, with 98.8 million being the current number.
