I've been following this. Comedy Central is covering something up. The guy might be in the loony bin.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

I think he went straight for *roughly* 5 minutes while his movie career was flagging a little, then Comedy Central gave him the big contract, and he dove back into drugs harder than he ever had.

WTF-that second article was written by someone on crack too. I don't trust that a bit.  This is a shame though its been canceled.  Hes the funniest farger alive IMO. Hope he comes back :yay

Why is that the most brilliant comics are oft the most tortured? Shame if it's true.

Could be a lot worse than drugs, from the standpoint of future comedy. Could be that he's gone totally Black Muslim and wants to clean up his act. His son's named Sulayman, you know.

There's an article in Newsweek about him. Main jist of the reason they keep pushing the premiere off is that he's not handling the fame and pressure well. Having a problem living up to the hype surrounding the show, etc.. so nothing is getting finished.

Some say he's having problems with CC about the tone of the show. Supposedly, he's written some skits that push the envelope further than CC is comfortable with.

Who the hell really knows?
Maybe the voices aren't real, but, they've got some pretty good ideas...

Damn. I wondered what was going on when I heard they suspended the show. If he is snorting the powder, then I hope he cleans up. He is very talented and funny as shtein.

His stand up routines are excellent.

I just hope he isn't following one of his quotes and "spinkling some crack on him".

Damn man, if you can't handle the pressure of being a basic cable star maybe you should OD and save us all some trouble.

The man. The myth. The legend.

He should call Danny Bonaduce for help with that.
