Gabriel Iglesias: Legend of Fluffy

This is NOT the typical Fluffy comedy show. Wasn't a lot of jokes. Just him standing there and talking about various different things that really weren't all that funny.

I get it, he needs to come up with more stuff every time he makes a new show. This was more of a "Story time with Fluffy" instead of the usual "Comedy Hour with Fluffy".

Normally when I watch his shows, I am glued to the screen wanting to hear more. With this, I really just sat here with his show in the background playing as I played on my phone and looked at Facebook. There wasn't anything that really captured my attention.

I hope that he comes out with better shows that this one. He IS and will ALWAYS be one of my favorite comedians that I watch. Sadly though, this one didn't "cut the cake".

Glad he has moved on in his life, but in reality, if I was to go to a show and this was what he presented to me...I wouldn't have been happy with it.

Please do better Fluffy.

Gabriel Iglesias used to make me laugh like no other. His first special I've watched time and time again and I could still laugh so hard. I'm crying. The last few specials are so pandering and lame that this one I barely got through. The jokes are old, the setup goes nowhere. He rambles on and on and has all these inspirational things to say, but nothing is laugh worthy. He reminds me of the washed up comedians you see In Vegas you can see for $25 and a drink you have to buy. This special was that bad. Super nice guy, and I still like him, but either get it together or retire. Don't go out like this.

Fluffy has less flair than usual here wirh a nostalgic take and lots of talking. A few of the jokes are hilarious and some voice imitations on point but many are neutral, flat or predictable. Still, the charisma and craft is there. The writing could have simply been better and tighter.

A bit too much about the past or jokes too specific to Florida. The best part is the long house robbery and gun salesman with a few oyher highlights and laughs.

The advice about being grateful to simply be alivr is well placed although the reat is hardly happiness therapy. Some commenters complain it is too much of a Ted Talk and he mentions it in the show. I have nothing against Ted Talks and some are even quit funny, entertaining and informative. The problem here is that amazing comedians or comedic routine would make these points with humour and also mostly better punchlines.

The show also did not end on a high point and could have given more or be better edited. Still worth a watch for aome laughs.

This show is all about him patting himself on the back. The first 20 minutes has a total of 1 joke in it. There are rounds of polite applause from the audience 👏, but only in the way a congregation is friendly to their preacher.

If you LOVE funny stuff, this is NOT it. He first wants you to be in awe that he has been a comedian for 27 years. Then he actually asks the audience how many people at his show had never heard of him before? He counts and says, "oh, about 5 people". In short, this stand up special is all about him indulging his own ego.

It is painful. You keep waiting for the jokes, but they just don't come. He's basically a confident public speaker 📢 with nothing to really say, unless you include old throw reasons to compel applause like: 1. Back in the day we respected our elders!

2. Love being here in Miami-Dade (even though the HardRock here is in Broward County and that's Ft. Lauderdale)

He is doing the Kevin James, Katt Williams stuff where they USED to be very funny. Now they just want to preach to you about things that we all generally know about. No prep. No new jokes. Nothing clever. Just give me the microphone, I can just work the room and make people feel good. But that's NOT funny. Don't tell us what you've done, in order to make a new dollar, how about earning your dollars today by shoeing up with new material and telling jokes!! 🤔

It is a TOTAL money grab. He said he isn't the kind of comedian to get political. Then his first joke is taking a poke at the while pronoun identification issue him/them she/they. And just like a typical Gen X'er, it wasn't funny. It wasn't shameful or offensive. It was just cringy because he first said that he wouldn't, THEN it wasn't that funny.

Long talking set ups to jokes with almost no pay off. So the audience politely claps 👏 and once again, he thinks 🤔 in his own mind that he was brilliant. Everyone at that show should have gotten a refund. Terrible.

Comedians shouldn't wing it. Rehearse, write new stuff, and be better than this!

I don't know, man - bring the old Fluffy back! Where's the energy, the pacing, sounds, voices, the "adventurous" stories?

This show is very slow, basically it's like 4 topics/stories in 85 minutes. Plus, the content is very cautious, too correct, too apologetic. I did not expect anything offensive, risky or anything in ie. RickyG or JimmyC style, however this was totally .. sterile. Totally. No own opinion or statement, just cautious maneuvering in wording, situations, stories.

As much as I love Fluffy for his shows up to One show fits all, which I watched several times and recommended to everyone aroud me, this one and the last one (Stadium Fluffy) seem as if he's lost his drive and spark. I cannot put my finger on anything specific but it's just differrent. Not that funny. Like racing your car while following all the traffic rules to the point.

Also, the audience clapping and laughter seems a bit off and I was checking the footage if people are really laughing or clapping. Because I couldn't match the content with the reaction.

So.. I still like and respect Gabriel, I will just stick with his older shows, though.
