I struggled to find the funny of this "comedy" special. The audience laughter is also so fake; in between telling the joke, even before the punchline, the audience bursts into laughter. I have always been one for stand-up black comedy - in fact he goes into pretty dark places, such as a segment where he talked about killing squirrels - but I struggle to find how anyone can find this funny, the only thing I laughed at was how bad this comedy special was.
At the start of the special, he was really quiet and seemed a little unconfident, but he opened up more later. In one of the early segments, he talks about how old people should be put down at one-hundred years, and while there was one point I found really funny, the segment lasted way too long, and the joke of telling old people to be put down got old quickly; it went on for a few minutes.
By now he seemed to open up more at the end and get more comfortable, having a louder and more confidence voice, and more intense expressions. As mentioned earlier, his segment about squirrels was actually really funny. He raised his voice at the right times, his impressions were hilarious, and his story telling got me really invested. It was dark too and I absolutely loved it - I do not want to spoil any of the jokes but it gets violent and abso-bloody-lutely messy.
Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end, as did the quality of this special. He turned to playing the guitar and occasionally said some minor things, which, I kid you not, the fake audience laughed every time he spoke, even if it was not a joke, or even meant to be funny. He made more unexpected jokes throughout, which gave to be a hit-or-miss. He tackles 9/11 after that, though he criticised a certain aspect of the media rather than making any really offensive jokes, which I can respect. There were seriously no notable or remotely funny jokes after that, except in one of the segments he killed someone over a fancy hat... yup.
4.9/10, would not recommend.
