Carlos Ballarta: Falso Profeta

Sorry folks...I laughed only once from watching the show. There are a lot of great standups out there and he's just not one of them. I gave this a shot because I thought he had potential at the very beginning and then you notice you're just not laughing. Nothing to see here...or laugh with.

I've watched a couple of Carlos's stand-up specials, and I really enjoy them. He is smart, surprising, occasionally offensive (in a good way), and really funny. I guess he's not for everyone, but if you like comedians who push the boundaries with an original voice, you should definitely give him a try. I don't speak Spanish, but the English translations were very good And I laughed out loud several times. I can see from the reviews that he's got some haters. Sure, whatever. He's pretty cool in my opinion. Judge for yourself.

I can see I need to write more words for this to be posted, so you can ignore everything below this.

His take on religion is sure to offend mainstream church goers but he really makes you stop and think, "wow do people really believe this? " OK, I've met the minimum number of characters. Time to post. So watch this special!

;)

So this special was in my opinion pretty decent. It had that dark, raw humour that He's always had. I like dark humor so I really enjoyed some of the jokes like the abortion one and the one which he makes fun or religion. But if you saw his two specials before this , they were way better. The first one had a really good dark and funny material. The second one was decent in material but the delivery was great. This one the material was okay and it was decently delivered.. I wouldn't watch it again though. I've watched the other two already twice because I enjoyed them. Not the same case with this.

Another one of netflix's Comedian washout. Seriously? Can you guys not find new funny comics that aren't a left stereotype? Even leaving politics aside.. the audience in this special is being forced to laugh. The cringe fest here is a snoozer.
