Pete Davidson: Alive from New York

For example, weed. Everyone knows Doug Benson is quintessential "weed comic," but he's F'n hilarious. Pete just uses crowd pleasers like weed to get claps, not laughs.

Just stories. No wit or cleverness.

Response to many of the comments: I would appreciate it if people would remember he struggles with anxiety and has really bad stage fright. As a pianist who struggles with the same, I recognize the signs and was all I could see <3

I like Pete on SNL, but I can see why he says they only put him in small doses. He's not funny for 45 minutes. His delivery doesn't land. Every fifth word is "um" "uh" "like" "whatever". He also appears to have ADD or something because he'll begin telling the set up for a joke, get distracted and talk about something else, then maybe come back five minutes to the joke he set up, but without any payoff. I think the audience laughs at Pete the celebrity, not Pete the stand-up. If he wasn't famous, nobody would think he was funny.

Pete's style of comedy is very awkward, I find it very unfair that people are criticizing the special for being awkward. If you watch SNL Pete will occasionally join Collin Jost and Micheal Che on weekend update and deliver his awkward take on something and it's just funny. Pete easily replicated that to create something that I found to be quite enjoyable.

The show was good! Very funny...especially the second half!!! I like his comedy style. He doesn't take himself too seriously, and he's hilarious. Some jokes may be above the comfort line for people, but stand up comedy is subjective and that's okay.

I watched it with my friends and we all really enjoyed it. Hope to see more of Pete on SNL too! Big up, Pete. Keep it up.
