20180622, 20180704:
The main problem with this show was that it came off as disingenuous or scripted. In contrast, other comedy specials I've seen feel genuine and organic, even though the comedians have already come prepared.
There were some hilarious jokes scattered throughout the special, but I
On 20190108, Netflix determined the movie for me as <55%* match. I decided to give the special neither a thumbs up nor a thumbs down.
*With the first movie without a match percentage being 1st, this special was the 23rd out of 32 items with hidden match percentages.
Instant Comments:
1a: Paused after 16 minutes due to it being tough to follow (environment was too noisy)
1b: Went back to ten minute mark (before they start the photo bit)
1b: "Camp Pray-the-Gay-Away"
1b: "Rain Man"
1b: "The Three Amigos"
1b: Hahahaha. That story of him and the make-up artist. The first punchline (when the director calls the make-up artist).
1b: Clever. "I've been on Jenny Craig more times than Mr. Craig."
1b: Jab at Kevin Hart.
1b: "Top that, motherfucker." - Martin Short to Steve Martin.
1b: When he first started playing I thought it would be a medley of lyrical songs he'd written. It is, however, just instrumental, but sounds great.
1b: Hahaha. A picture of the tour bus from the plane.
1b: Lol. "Amazing Grace" on "bagpipe."
1b: Delayed laughter (from me). "The only time he doesn't have to pee, is when he's peeing."
1b: First I didn't know what IMODIUM was. Second I didn't understand why Steve Martin said, "Do that again, really?"
1b: I feel like they stretched this political pictures commentary too long.
1b: Hahahaha. Hahaha. (Steve Martin's song.)
1b: Hahaha. (After none)
