The Standups

At first, this show feels like an up-and-coming comics showcase. The first episode felt pretty strong with Nate Bargatze. But in later episodes, I found myself 20-30 minutes into the show, quitting the episode and skipping to the next one. I pretty much did that with the rest of them. Unfortunately, most of these lesser known comedians appear to be unknown for pretty good reason. It felt like they didn't really have much in the way of jokes to tell, but hoped somehow talking about themselves would be hilarious. It is almost cringey watching these mediocre personalities dying in front of a huge, live audience, with nary a chuckle.

Nate killed it and I'm happy he was first because it made me interested to watch a few of the others. 10/10 because of Nate. 6/10 for the rest as a whole.

This is how I found Beth Stelling and Nikki Glaser. I'm a huge fan of stand up comedy and now my favorite comedian is Beth Stelling. This program is great, I love that they brought amazing comedians together to perform a fantastic show. I wish I could've seen it live.

Some of the episodes are great, but they are almost the same number as the meh / bad episodes. Better off watching a long stand up by a notable performer.

Nate was hilarious! Fortune was really funny. The lady from England was funny but I guess not funny enough for me to remember her name.
