Watched this yesterday evening... I thought it was the worst Aziz show yet, but that still makes it funnier than 90% of comics out there.

He is hit or miss at times. He can be anywhere from hysterical to downright annoying. I hate his impressions and voices, but he does write some damn good bits.

The biggest issue I have is that he name drops celebrities far too often for my liking. Comedy is predicated on self-deprecation and misery; therefore, the comic should tread lightly when it comes to bragging about their connections.

I enjoyed it. Especially when he talks about being single, and all the games people play.

I did think the Kanye bit was pretty funny.

Watch his performance in Philadelphia. His entire encore was about a charity event and his interactions with Seal, Obama, and a few other individuals.

Aziz stand up just isn't as funny as he is on shows and in movies IMO

I just don't get his style of humor. I think he's one of the more over-rated comics performing at the national level.

Yep, this was disappointing. Worst Aziz show yet. His last one was my favorite

People really think he's funnier on Tv/movies than standup? His standup is usually awesome

I had some laughs during this one, but it wasn't as consistent as his previous stand ups. Some of the jokes ran a little bit long before he got to the punch line, and like someone else said, he become a caricature of himself at times.

Definitely agree with all this. He kinda chilled out with that shite on his Buried Alive show, which I thought was his best one.
