Q: That's impressive since Letterman has always been anti-impressionist. A: I was the first impressionist they ever had on to do a stand-up bit. Since then they've had two impressionist weeks.
I've triggered something. I'm doing Letterman again in October. I'm coming on to pretend to be John Madden.
I wouldn't do it for anybody else. It's a terrible pigeonholing thing. But they're going to have me come on as myself so I can plug my show for TBS in the fall.
Q: Will you do all the characters on your show on TBS? A: I'll be doing some. There will probably be one platform sketch where I'll do a couple of characters.
I wanted to call my show "Chappelle's Show" but they won't let us do it. I thought we could draw more people right away. Q: How do you morph so quickly from character to character?
