I finally watched it and while I laughed it was definitely disappointing. It was a lot of rehashed material. His 19 and counting joke was literally the same joke he did for octomom. His bit about the benefits of 9-11 was funny but he has done similar jokes in the last. Of course you get your standard abortion joke, but it was pretty unoriginal compared to his older stuff.

I hate the way that he cushions every joke by saying "if this offends you....blah blah blah"

Just fricking tell the jokes.


His routine seems too influenced by Tosh.0 now too.

What would you see is his best standup performance? I've not really heard any of his stuff.

If in your standup you have to tell people what is a joke and that people should be laughing you usually suck.

I watched one of his stand ups and had to turn it off...it was not good.

but Tosh.O has some great episodes.

His first two specials were the best.

I couldn't finish it. I Don't need a comedian continually telling me he's edgy. I'll decide if your material is edgy and Tosh isn't.

I thought his first two specials were pretty funny. I liked them better than his show. The new one was kinda meh.

FWIW I thought it was funny. I wanna know if he really walked out in New Orleans and talked shite about the saints.

I had a friend at that show. He said he came out and not only talked shite on the Saints but also made a few Katrina jokes

From what I was told he walked out and his first line was "F*** the Saints" everyone laughed. No one was "upset" as he said in this stand up.

I thought People Pleaser was good stuff. The orphan bit was awesome. I also love his intro to the New Orleans about how his friends will be like "You won't do it" and he mentions $5 is apparently still important to him.

I enjoyed it. He obviously is comfortable in his schtick and I'm fine with that. You can do it with any stand up comedian if you get too picky. Louis C.K. has dozens of bits about how fat and out of shape he is. Bill Burr trashes something about women and talks about the over population problem just about every special. They find a general theme and stick with it.

I think part of the problem with this one is that he was too much like Jeselnik. It seemed like he was more focused on saying edgy things than being funny.

I'm watching the Patton Oswalt special right now and it is just a tire fire. I normally like his stuff but this is God awful. Very awkward. The crowd is not even into it.
