I'll go along with a couple other reviewers who feel Jim Gaffigan is getting a bit too predictable with his routines. He's done the fat bit with riffs on eating in every one of his comedy specials and it gets a little repetitious. However if you're just catching this one as your first time you'll probably find it funny enough, and it is actually. The one thing he didn't put down this time was his aversion to exercise, so that was welcome. He did hit on winters, TV binge watching, water parks, airport security and being in charge of the remote, so those ideas get a fresh perspective. When he jokes about dying from stuff he eats though, that's somewhat unnerving, because what if he did drop dead right there on stage? That wouldn't be too funny, and with 'cinco' kids to take care of, that would be a downer. Do your wife a favor Jim (and us too), and cut out the heart attack jokes.
