Personally, I found Jerrod Charmichael quite entertaining. I found Jerrod through being a fan of Bo Burnham, who directed '8' and he doesn't have the same 'popping' comedy that many comedians have today due to his slower style but I think many people are underrating his comedy a little too much due to that. I think that many people just aren't used to this sort of 'grey' comedy. A kind of mix of black and white jokes. He doesn't lean on being black as much as many other black comedians have and I think viewers need to consider their bias and expectations going into their viewing due to him being black. He doesn't bring the same energy that other black comedians do and I personally thinks it's quite charming. He, instead of dealing with racial issues as much, challenges the audience to think about and sometimes even oppose the mainstream thoughts, using 'personal' experiences to relate with the audience. The atmosphere of the special is quite conversational and, some would disagree, intelligent.Not something I'd show newcomers to comedy but definitely a must-watch for people who already enjoy comedy or maybe enjoy analyzing comedy. Perhaps not as many 'laugh out loud' moments as some people would like but definitely a consistent smile throughout the whole special. It was charming.

jerrod wit, timing and humanity are absent from this performance and his pretentious and relentless charade of worldly defeatism doesn't work. Being gross can be funny but there has to be some context, some originality and some relative experience for the viewer to engage with.I'd have to seriously question the professional judgment of the hbo team that saw this past the ideas stage! I'm assuming that they are all her friends or they divvied up her paycheck!

I have never seen the ' stand-up before but decided to see it because I really have enjoyed their cartoon on Animation Domination/FXX. However, after seeing it I must say that their act is DEFINITELY not for everyone. First, you have to be able to laugh at pot-head humor. After all, they are both self-avowed pot users and much of their humor centers around this. I am not offended by the notion of legalization of drugs but laughing at drugs isn't my thing. Second, you have to have a high tolerance for their slow, slow style...the style of two pot-heads! A few of the jokes worked well, many fell flat and the whole Richard Nixon angle just was unfunny, made no sense and went no where-- particularly with the cartoon at the end. Overall, I neither hated nor particularly loved it. There are definitely better comedians out there...but sadly there are many much worse!

A lot of comedians do have a recurring joke between specials that they may talk about for 5 minutes or so, but does this for the entire special. Its no wonder she resorts to stealing jokes, her only original joke is that he is a gross slut (his words). Hard to give this a good rating when these are also the same jokes during her other performances.... For a person working in a creative field i see no creativity, he has given critics so much ammo with this special.I have no more words, you will know what I mean if you watch it.
