Trevor Noah: Vai Encarar?

After a while not on stage, Trevor returns for his latest Netflix special, more like an inspirational speaker than a comedian. Despite some repetitive lines from his previous specials or even episodes of The Daily Show, Trevor couldn't really find "fresh" connections to all his jokes. It's not hard to detect some "exhausted" lines being recycled in this special. Even the audience's response wasn't that good. It's either we wished too hard, or we were putting a greater expectation after not seeing him on stage for 2 years.

A good warm up for him I guess, but hoping to see better ones soon. Keep it up Trevor!

As a fan of T N, this was a snoozefest and not even close to good as his previous worst stand-up. At best, this would've been an ok 15-20 min stand-up open-mic night gig. Him speaking German with barely any explanation to what was being said was boring. Then the rest of the fist half was just dragged out nonsense with zero laughs thus far. The last half was the only time I broke a few chuckles, and even those jokes dragged on endlessly. His monologue on The Daily Show is hilarious, so now it's clear the TDS writers come up with all the funny content. He needs to make sure they go with him if he still plans on doing stand-up as a career, because had I paid to see him live for that one hour, I would've walked out half way through and demanded a refund. It's a generous 5/10, only because I'm still a fan.

I've adored his past specials, have read his book and listened to his podcast. I love how he makes me think and laugh in equal measures, fueled by his imagination and worldy, compassionate perspective. Happy to hear he'll be doing more comedy now.

Overall, this special had some funny moments for me but fell flat compared to his others. One of my favorite bits was ordering Indian food in a Scottish restaurant, and I think some of his best material comes from retelling stories of his own personal experiences.

Enough of the material I'd already heard him speak to before (his German accent for example), so it didn't feel as fresh or engaging. I'm sure now that he's doing his own thing he'll have much more material to work with, and I'll be hear for it and rooting for him.

Trevor Noah returns and rocks Toronto with a much-needed dose of self-actualization and sardonic observation that stirs laughter as well as thought. Sharp and wicked smart is Noah's raportage on Covid events, politicians, & society's gullibility to Trumpian conspiracy nonsense.

Noah's impressions are spot-on, hysterical, and hit home with a swift right hook: Trudeau's trip to India is priceless - and I should know because I'm Canadian.

Trevor has blossomed into a fully self-aware individual, one who unafraid to turn that perceptive eye inward as well as out.

This show displays growth and an intellectual maturity that George Carlin himself would give a tip-of-the-hat to.

Truly enjoyable.

What happened to this guy? At least he was somewhat funny but this special is so boring and preachy... I fell asleep halfway around and later forced myself to finish it. Sure, he can do accents but that is far from enough, especially from someone like him. Not once did I laugh. I was just sitting and quietly thinking: is he serious? What the heck is this? It's not even mediocre level just pure garbage.

Regarding his messages that felt really forced: it was more like repeating talking points and not a stand-up show. It looks like the isolation really made these famous people even more out of touch with reality and common folks.

Also his material feels outdated, this would have been acceptable maybe 1 or 1.5 years ago. Also most people had enough of this whole worldwide sickness misery... let it go already!
