Shane Gillis: Beautiful Dogs (2023)
Best Comedy Special of 2020s
This was fantastic. Energized pacing, broad subject matter, very inclusive. Instant all time classic. Manages to extract all of the funny out of some controversial topics. Walks a balanced line very well while not losing artistic integrity.
I am by no means a joe rogan fan or a podcast bro. In fact, I detest man in the circle. So many of the comics supplanted by Rogan are horrendous (the machine, schulz, e.t.c.).
I am simply a fan of good comedy. This is it. Seriously worth a watch.
Hope this gets the flowers it deserves. Truly captures the spirit of our time. Props to netflix for giving shane a platform. Inspiring stuff.
South Park: Cupid Ye (2023)
Continued Decline
What happened to South Park? This episode is so safe, and has no interesting or insightful commentary whatsoever. Sad how many of the fan boys can't point out the shows blatant decline.
However you feel about Kanye, dunking on him is undoubtedly overdone. We've all seen it on just about every late night talk show, Twitter account, and comedy show. It's so safe from a show that used to be on the cutting edge of comedy.
There also don't seem to be any jokes. What happened to the self contained comedy amongst the kids? Seems like the care and attention Matt and Trey used to pour into the show has vanished.
