Mo Gilligan: There's Mo to Life

This was the first time I watched something with Mo gilligan, never heard of him before. I think some of the reviews here are a bit harsh concerning this show. I agree that it could have been funnier but you can't deny that Mo Gilligan is a born entertainer. He has a great stage presence, moves a lot and does good impressions. He knows how to tell a story, he has a great interaction with the audience, and I think it showed. A fully packed venue with an audience that clearly had fun, those are things that don't lie. So as entertainment it was good and that's already enough for me, maybe the jokes could have been more frequent just to please more peoplebut overall it's certainly worth a watch.

This is a true story.

My girlfriend was starving and she wanted me to get her food. I made her a deal: if she laughed once during the special, I would get her whatever she wanted.

10 minutes in she made me a counter offer: if I can sit through the whole special without turning it off, I have to get her food. I was willing to endure the torture, but eventually she made me turn it off, and decided she rather go to bed hungry.

The people in the audience must've been paid actors because I actually couldn't believe they were laughing at the jokes.

If you're reading this review, come up with a challenge that requires you to either laugh once or sit through the whole thing, both are equally impossible.

A big step-up from his previous special.

Every premise hit with me It was great when he involved the audience in the end.

I was laughing through out the show!

I've been trying to watch south african, british and australian comedians but the dialects are so strong, I can barely understand anything.

Even worse, this special is recorded badly, there's so much boomy echo on the mic that it's extra hard to know what he's saying.

I tried, but the few jokes I understood weren't funny. I clicked because I liked the pun in the title. But this needed to be recorded clearer.
