Jim Jefferies: This Is Me Now

Sooo the good thing is Jim still does specials.. I thought he would pursue TV/film career more by now but he is still true to his roots. Or at least he's trying... The show was good overall but lacked a spark of sorts.. a mojo, if you will.. Jim just seemed to have lost the passion for the topics he talked about. I understand it is harder for him to find the zeal maybe partially due to the Jim Jefferies show where he just has to sift through a horrible amount of information and news and try and pick the most interesting or funny ones. How much involved in the production of the JJ show he is, I do not know, but it seems to wear him down a bit. Jim just doesn't seem like the day in, day out working kind of guy...

7/16/18. While he was funny in parts, he has an extremely big potty mouth. I just find that kind of language offensive and lazy. One can express oneself well without resorting to foul language. Near the end he reveals that he has been dealing with depression almost his whole life. Ok, that explains some things. Watch only if you are into potty mouth humor.

His other Netflix specials are amazing, by comparison this one is just boring and his delivery feels like he knows it's average and just going through the motions.

I really liked the first couple of Jim Jefferies stand-up specials, he was a fresh, edgy and rambunctious new voice when he first appeared, but living in LA and hosting that awful chat-show seems to have tamed him and given him no time to come up with any quality material. He really doesn't have anything new to say and what he does have to say isn't all that funny. There are no great set-pieces or even any lines you'd want to remember to pass on to anyone else.

I laughed precisely twice. Some of the bit about Trump was moderately amusing but so safe and predictable, and nothing that the average man in the street couldn't have easily come up with himself. The Al Pacino story was nice but didn't lead anywhere, or add up to anything, it was just some stuff that happened.

Unless it was simply a contractual obligation, I can't actually see why Jefferies wanted to put this show out at all. Really just a disappointment.

Pretty good, not so sharp like previous special but still enjoyed!
