THE CHRIS ROCK SHOW’s First Two Seasons Now on HBO Max

If you feel as though there are too many streaming services, that’s because you’re paying attention to your bank account. Still, having so many options comes with plenty of plusses. One of the biggest is how companies are digging into their catalogues to fill out their libraries. That’s letting audiences both old and new see some classic shows. Now HBO Max is bringing back its former Emmy-winning series hosted by a standup legend. The first two seasons of The Chris Rock Show are now available to stream.

HBO Max has added the first two years of Rock‘s late-night series. It originally aired on HBO from 1997 to 2000 for five seasons and 55 episodes. The show, which had Grandmaster Flash serve as musical director, featured stand-up, sketches, and social commentary. It also boasted some big names from across both the entertainment and political worlds. Some guests alone make watching the old episodes worth it. The series had visits from Prince, George Carlin, Jesse Jackson, Whoopi Goldberg, Missy Elliott, Salt-N-Pepa and more.
