Jim Gaffigan: Quality Time

Normally this guy has me in stitches. I've been a fan for years. I saw him live a few years ago and he was amazing. But this one just feels lazy to me. Don't get me wrong, some of it is pretty good... but for every good moment there seems to be several moments of sub par (compared to his normal genius) filler. My buddy put it perfect - a lot of dad-joke quality material here.

This is the best Jim Gaffigan I remember seeing. I guess I remember liking him and enjoying it before but this was really fun from beginning to end. Now, this is a comic telling jokes and IMDB has gone back to requiring a lot of words. I don't want to give away his jokes. I don't even want to talk about the subjects of the jokes because that would sort of be a spoiler and won't make the jokes better. It's interesting that I could just rate this and give it a score but if I want to say anything, I have to come up with 600 characters of something to say. He does talk about horses and shirts. Actually he talks about horses sort of like the Moby Dick whale species chapters. Quite a bit. But he does apologize for that.

Watching Jim Gaffigan's newest special on Amazon is a treat. His material is consistently funny. Some jokes bust a gut, other jokes not bust gutting..... but every joke IS funny. It's interesting how his voice changes as well as his facial expressions to make his point. A very talented man. His horse jokes had me laughing out loud! Overall, great material, funny, and delivery timed perfectly.

Not much to say except Jim Gaffigan is as funny as he's ever been, with all new material. Constant laughs, laid back, great time.

Gaffigan is one of the most reliably hilarious comedians out there. He has several specials out and this is as good as any of them.

He also works clean. It's nice to be able to show my kids a comedian without being worried about content.
