Bill Burr: Morrendo de Rir

It's great seeing how Burr has evolved since Chappelle Show while growing up and staying true to himself. It's also fun seeing him riff on subjects he has seemingly already done, but has found new perspectives as he has matured. There are probably going to be some political tears in other reviews despite the fact he doesn't let either side off the hook. I still love that he is one of the few white comedians to tackle American racism in a thoughtful, nuanced, and hilariously truthful way. His last couple of specials weren't bad but they didn't land with me as his older material had. And it sounds like he has been through a lot later in life. As a guy in my late 40s it resonates. His joke about fighting his dad was so on point I had to pause it. Definitely worth the watch and looking forward to seeing him continue to grow.

Bill is back. I'm glad to see he's still got his edge. Only he can take self reflection and turn it on its head with whitey but yet crass humor. His political commentary is also spot on. While listening to this special, I find myself not just laughing but nodding my head in full agreement with his exposition.

Tbh, this was one of those specials that gets better as you rewatch it. Certain jokes hits at a different time and I just didn't fully appreciate it the first time around. This is my third time through and I'm laughing it all over. A lot of other specials don't have this type of staying power, and for sure, I will be watching it for the fourth and fifth time. Enjoy!

This is the best of Bill Burr's entire comedic persona, but more distilled, concentrated and refined.

This special might not be for everyone, particularly those people who want him to remain as the Bill Burr of 10-15 years ago. Buy, as a long-time fan, I can safely say that he's reached a nexus of his comedic evolution in "Drop Dead Years." He combines his own personal evolution with introspective, bald-faced honesty (pun intended?) that's still very much so the same Bill Burr. He isn't rebranded, muzzled, or watered down - he's just a wiser, reflective lunatic who, despite having opened his heart up a bit more, somehow still spares no one.

It's refreshing to see that stand-up comedy can still be genuinely funny. Too often, comedians rely on saying something "edgy" just for shock value, but when Bill does it, he actually brings up meaningful points in a way that feels natural and well-crafted. Great comedy makes you think, and that's exactly what his latest special accomplishes-it's both thought-provoking and entertaining from start to finish. This is his best work yet, showcasing his ability to analyze different subjects with nuance, wit, and precision. It's this sharp insight and masterful delivery that solidify him as one of the greats in comedy.

One of his best specials. It is all of the things I appreciate about Bill Burr's style. If you're a long time fan of the podcast or his stand up, there's still plenty of fresh material here to keep you invested and laughing. If you're neither, it's a fantastic stand up special that feels organic and unapologetic for all the right and funny reasons. Tame by Bill Burr's standards, but well thought out and unbelievably funny in a world full of cookie cutter stand up material. There are times when the jokes drag on just a bit too long, but I'm genuinely grasping at straws trying to find constructive criticism here. One of my favorite stand up specials in a long time.
