I've enjoyed some of his older stand up specials but this sadly felt like the worst of his work to date.
His punchlines barely got a chuckle out of me at best and there's a lot of reusing his old tropes. As an example, I don't get why there is a a slow-mo of him bursting out of his shirt and why being shirtless has become his 'thing' because while it might have some value the first time, I just don't find it funny the 2nd, 3rd, 4th time.
I felt his stories left me puzzled in this special, which is a shame because his most famous 'the machine' story is so well polished and funny. These jokes fell flat because I constantly was finding myself questioning the believability of his stories and that he is simply trying to make them as crude as possible because that's what he thinks the audience wants (and if it works well more power to him, it's just not for me).
