Taylor Tomlinson: Have It All (2024 TV Special)
2/10
Stale bread
13 February 2024
Taylor starts her newest comedy special with a dating rant, then transitions to a dating rant, before transitioning to a dating rant. At some point it hits you, this is just an hour long dating rant. When the best part of the special is her asking the audience for sleep advice, you know it's a bad special. The whole thing felt like stale bread. Even the audience grew wary of her never ending dating rant. She has good energy, but doesn't have anything interesting to say. She briefly mentions how she might be bi-sexual, but after hearing about dating only men for an hour, it's not to be believed. There was no standing ovation at the end for good reason, she didn't deserve one. She mentions on stage how talented she is, but someone should tell her the truth: she's not that talented at comedy. This special is stale.

Dave Chappelle: The Dreamer (2023 TV Special)

Dave Chappelle: A Tragedy
2 January 2024
Dave Chappelle is no longer a comedian, he's reached drunk uncle status. His jokes are old and dusty. The Will Smith slap, trans material, the Hollywood Bowl incident. These topics are covered in cobwebs at this point. His trans people rants have become obsessive and bland. He changed clothes in the middle of his comedy special to deliver the most boring story ever for 20 minutes. He sounds like an old man yelling at clouds. His attempt to tie it together with a Martin Luther King I have a dream fluff piece put the nail in Dave's coffin. Time to lower Dave into the ground. His funny days are behind him. What a tragedy. Rest in peace drunk uncle Dave.

Kevin Hart: Reality Check (2023 TV Special)
2/10
The death of Kevin Hart
13 July 2023
Kevin Hart will never be funny again. It's time to mourn and move on. His fall from funny is like a plane nose diving into the ground. This special was the final nail in his coffin. It's a disjointed mess of random topics that are bland and boring: plastic surgery, Will Smith, Covid. This material is old and rusty. Will Smith should slap the funny back into him. No amount of Kevin's energy can save these outdated topics. Kevin is like an old dog that can't learn new tricks. The grave has been dug, the nails are in place, it's time to lower Kevin into the ground. The funny Kevin is dead. Rest in peace.

An Absolute Travesty
14 June 2023
I've seen morgues with more energy than Amy. She looked bored and completely un-interested in performing on stage. It doesn't help that her material is mostly recycled from her previous specials: being fat, plastic surgery, having an autistic husband, and married life. She is a 40 year old woman who acts like she's 80. She talked to an audience member who's almost 30 like she was a toddler. The biggest problem is that Amy just doesn't have anything interesting to say. She tries to make up for boring topics by using quirky voices but ends up taking a dirt nap. I don't blame Amy for this turd, I blame Netflix for still paying this unfunny clown to stink up their platform. Throw this special to the dogs.

Old man Chris yells at cloud.
23 March 2023
How many times do we have to listen to Chris Rock do the same white people bad shtick? It's so stale that even the audience of mostly black people didn't find it funny. According to Chris, white people don't struggle because they're not black. Once that's been established, it's time for Chris to talk about how wealthy he is. It's a 20 minute rant how he's made millions of dollars, sends his kids to private schools, goes back stage at Disneyland, and sends his daughter to Paris. Finally after slogging through his narrow lens of the world, we get to Will Smith. 7 minutes to be exact. 1 hour of white people are bad and I'm so wealthy for 7 minutes of great Will Smith material. Was it worth the wait? Nope. Throw this special to the dogs.

Taurus (2022)
2/10
BORING.
16 January 2023
Do you like entertainment? Then this movie is NOT for you. It's boring from beginning to end. The main character is so unlikable and one note that you wish he would overdose within the first 15 minutes just so the movie can end. Wannabe Kurt Cobain is a drug addicted rock star. That's the plot. It's unoriginal, poorly acted, and it rivals paint drying in the entertainment department. Clearly MGK realizes he's never going to be Eminem so he's trying to be Kurt Cobain. He's just a copycat of other people. His acting range in this film goes between depressed and manic. You won't get anything else from the main character. What a BORING film.

More annoying than on Jeopardy
28 November 2022
I didn't think Hasan could be more annoying than his Jeopardy appearance, but this special is worse. Hasan yells, and yells, and yells. He thinks if he yells loud enough then he'll reach the funny decibel. He doesn't. The crowd doesn't laugh much, they just cheer when he gets loud. The material is basic. Family stuff, Indian stuff, and a list of famous people he pissed off while clout chasing. Hasan is cocky, yet insecure. He talks a lot, but says little. He has energy, but not funny energy. It's the same energy he brought to Jeopardy, where they called him the most annoying contestant ever. That perfectly describes him on this special.

Iliza Shlesinger: Hot Forever (2022 TV Special)
2/10
Half bra talk, half TED talk
9 November 2022
Do you like 30 minutes of bra material? Do you like being lectured like you're a moron? Then this special is for you. Iliiza takes a deep dive into bras like they are the single most fascinating object on the planet. Then it's time to be lectured like you're a 16 year old boy. She has all the passion and stage presence of a great comedian, but it's wasted on her endless men vs. Women, girl good, guy bad shtick. It's stale and boring. If Iliza had that same passion for something more interesting it might work. Alas, this dame can't stop ranting about ladies and gentlemen. Throw this special to the dogs.

Bill Burr: Live at Red Rocks (2022 TV Special)
2/10
Where's Will Smith when you need him?
20 July 2022
I'll take Will Smith's "Keep my wife's name out your fu**king mouth" over any of Bill's lines in this special. Bill comes out sluggish and takes a dirt nap. It feels like he needed his wife's approval to put out this special. I've seen red table talks funnier than this. Someone give this man a slap.

This won a grammy?
10 April 2022
The bar has gone so low in comedy that this boring special won a grammy. I've looked at bowel movements in my toilet that were funnier. I've seen pandas sneezing that were funnier. I've seen mimes pretending to be in boxes that were funnier.

Taylor Tomlinson: Look at You (2022 TV Special)
2/10
Taylor's hypocrisy
19 March 2022
She loves telling the audience that you should accept your body, except if you're a man, then your body is gross. Be yourself, but put yourself on medication to not be yourself. Speak your mind, but don't say the word "prostitute." Call them sex workers or you're a terrible person. Her hypocrisy gets tiring. Skip this special.

Ali Wong: Don Wong (2022 TV Special)
2/10
Ali Wong was exposed.
22 February 2022
Ali Wong used the crutch of being pregnant for 2 specials. This special was her chance to show what she's really got as a comedian. EPIC FAIL. She showed us she's nothing more than your run-of-the-mill gross out humor comedian disguising her lame jokes as feminism. It was straight from the Amy Schumer playbook. I was rooting for her to be a comedian with some depth in her jokes. Nope. Ali Wong was exposed as mediocre at best.

Jim Gaffigan: Comedy Monster (2021 TV Special)
2/10
An outdoor cat who became an indoor cat.
27 December 2021
Jim used to sneak cleverly around topics like an outdoor cat prowling along a fence looking for a snack. But this comedy feels aged like a cat who can no longer jump. Covid material is like canned tuna. Easy food for an indoor cat. Jim needs to go back to cleverly catching his prey like an outdoor cat looking for a feast.

Dave Chappelle: The Closer (2021 TV Special)
2/10
Just plain BORING.
15 October 2021
I'm not woke. I'm not pro-cancel culture. I just want to laugh at some insightful comedy. Instead, I got Dave ranting about the same thing he's been ranting about for 6 specials. If you say Dave's not funny his cult fans will write you off as someone who doesn't "get it." Oh, I get it, and it's boring.

Tiffany Haddish: Black Mitzvah (2019 TV Special)

The biggest joke is that this won a grammy.
29 August 2021
I wouldn't give this special a participation award, let alone a grammy. Black lives matter politics gave her a free grammy. It certainly wasn't because she was funny. This special was TERRIBLE.

Amy Schumer: Growing (2019 TV Special)
2/10
GROWING tired of her material
30 July 2021
Pregnancy material? Check.

Being fat material? Check.

Handicap husband material? Check.

I've seen beheadings funnier than this. Someone needs to stop Amy before she starts doing down syndrome material.
