I was disappointed in his Netflix special. Which is weird cause I saw him live at a comedy festival a year before and I thought he was amazing. He even did some of the same jokes from the special, but the special's version fell flat

i rly started following him after he did the WHCD but i found that a lot of his material is hit or miss. it's kind of weird, like he's super funny sometimes, others he's not v. funny at all.

his special felt more like spoken word/story telling than actual comedy.

I guess his show is replacing Michelle Wolff's. I really liked hers (That "ICE is..." sketch had me clutching my pearls and rolling in laughter)! But I can see how it might not have appealed to everyone.

Wait did Michelle get cancelled? I loved her show

[slinkydinks]

Yeah. They went on break (pardon the expression), but then never came back. And then it came out that it was canceled.

He's so fine to me. Not going to call him husband material because a) he's married and b) who knows what kind of opinions he's hiding, but stillll.

I like him and want him to succeed but Netflix isn't really suited for weekly current event shows.

[djador]

It really isn’t. I liked Michelle Wolf’s show and watched it every week but having to remember there was a new episode and then actively search for it wasn’t intuitive. They need a better system for shows like this so it pops up at the top or something

[polaroidmoment]

Yeah I'm sick of the Netflix algorithm showing me shit I don't want to watch and then having to search for ongoing shows that won't show up on my main screen. This is exactly why I ended up not watching the rest of her show, I couldn't find it lol.
