Sebastian Maniscalco: Stay Hungry

I am a huge fan of Sebastian! Coming from Greece which is not that far from Sicily, I always find many similarities in my family and his stories and the way he tells them always is funny to me. I watched this three times. In this one, I laughed the least in comparison to his other specials. Maybe the repetition of the same issues of his material (family and annoying behaviours of people, which is not that bad really), lack of very entertaining new jokes or a little of nervousness he felt more in that, doing a special in front of New Yorkers in probably the mecca of entertainment. I don't know. But it surely feels it lacks the freshness and delivery of his first specials. Despite that, as a huge fan I enjoyed it quite a lot, for example the part with his wife scratching his car and the body shop...actors.

It was decent but there was quite a few bits about the pregnancy that I didn't care for about halfway through. The bits about exercising, the gas station, and Home Depot were his best parts. These occurred at the beginning and end so it wasn't a very consistent experience for me. He seemed to really start getting into it at the end, but then it justseems to end because of the time limit. I recommend watching it with lower expectations.

The first half or so was excellent for the most part, but it runs out of steam towards the end. Still worth watching, though.

All of Sebastian's comedy specials are hilarious, and this one lives up to the hype! I love the new material about his wife's pregnancy and his daughter.

This is my second time to watch the show. It's so funny to me and maybe not everyone else. It's relatable to me because I have immigrant parents and I lived in an intense household. So some of the stories and the things he says from his dad's experiences makes me laugh because I've been there too. It's also fairly clean in terms of language and content that's very rare. It's fun to watch.
