Ronny Chieng: Love to Hate It

People say talk show is an art of offending people, but there has to be a prerequisite, which is it has to be about offending people of a privileged position. If you choose to offend people of a inferior position, or the group that has always been overlooked, that is bullying, that's not art of any kind.

So many Asian so-called "comedians" choose to make jokes about their parents, about how much they hate their identifies, and how they successfully "blend" into the "main-stream". That's not comedy, not art, that's sad! Senior Asians are the ones who get systematically overlooked and even bullied everyday and everywhere in American, Asian males are the people that get systematically suppressed. And "Chinese-born" has become more and more as a crime to a lot of MAGAs. Ronny Chieng, as an Asian American, finally get the gut to express his take towards some of these problems. I respect him, I solute to him.

This show is a small step, but a COURAGEOUS one!

I surely didn't love to hate it like the title suggested it, I could not believe the lowered level of well-thought and sharp observations compared with the previous two shows.

At some point I was almost convinced that everything was written by asking an AI model to write a whole new show in the style of Ronny's past shows.

There is simply no soul present.

My guess is that this was written by a D-grade embryo and for D-grade embryos only.

Ronny is very clear about other people's opinions, he doesn't care at all. And while is right about it, he should at least listen to his own opinion called self-criticism.

I hope that this was a one-time hit and miss and not the start of the downfall.

Erudite, raunchy, slap the chair funny, his perspective on US-spot on, using academia in part of his set was Brilliant ...Illiterate people git a must needed correction on the many colors, types of Asians/Chinese👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽!!! What I love most about Ronny is his delivery, which encompasses his voice, usage of his body, and his timing!!! The pacing of your set added the punch and intensity...Awesome!!! Gets one to suspend one's cognitive dissonance...Brilliant Ronny!!! Mahalo nui loa🌺🌺🌺!!!Added Mahalo for doing your show at the historic grand dame in the heart of downtown Honolulu the Hawaii Theatre, art deco that she be!!!💖💖💖

Ronny Chieng's Love to Hate it Netflix special feels like a punishment rather than entertainment. It's as if someone took the concept of comedy, ran it through a blender, and forgot to add any humor.

Chieng spends the entire special alternating between yelling, glaring, and making bizarre observations that feel like they were brainstormed during a caffeine-fueled fever dream. The pacing is so erratic it's as though the special is actively trying to give you whiplash.

The "punchlines" (if you can call them that) are predictable at best and cringe-inducing at worst. Every time I thought it couldn't get less funny, it somehow managed to find a new low. I genuinely started to feel bad for the audience, who looked like they were laughing out of obligation or possibly nervous confusion.

By the end, I wasn't just unamused; I was actively annoyed. If this is the future of comedy, then we should all be deeply concerned. Watch at your own risk.

Not funny at all, I liked Ronny Chieng first stand up on Netflix. The second Netflix special was not funny, I decided to give him another chance. First 10 minutes of the Netflix special was mildly funny I thought maybe this time around will get some laughs . But I was mistaken, after first 10 minutes it turned into annoying rant that started giving me a headache. There was nothing funny about it, just what Ronny Cheing thinks about life events, politics and how things should be. Advice to Ronny, comedy is about making people laugh not annoy them with a senseless rant of what you think. Had to stop the show midway.
