Featured reviews
I usually don't bother to write reviews for anything older than a year, but there are way too many negative reviews of this special on IMDB. Before I dive into the positives of this special, I will concede what I believe are issues with D'Elia's comedy. He does tend to stretch out his jokes for too long. Furthermore, too many of his jokes are sexual in nature. Finally, the mannerisms and body language that D'Elia employs are sometimes funny, but also sometimes irritating.
Now, here are the reasons why I still believe this to be a solid stand-up special. His jokes consistently connect back to previous jokes in humorous ways. I appreciate the level of enthusiasm he brings to his comedy. You can tell that he genuinely loves his profession. Many of his jokes are spot on, and provide relatable material. His comments about men who wear NFL jerseys are completely accurate, and I think about this stand-up act whenever I see an adult wearing a NFL player's jersey. For this reason, the stand-up special left an indelible impact.
While this stand-up special might not be one of the best on Netflix, it's definitely still worth a watch.
Pros and Cons Summary
+Great skit on the NFL and wearing professional athlete jerseys
+Great skit on babies
+Relatable material on dating
-Too much of his comedy is sexual in nature
-Body movements can be excessive at times
-Some jokes are stretched out for too long

I made it 9 minutes in. If you saw Pauly Shore's Christmas Story appearance in the first season of Mad TV, where he tells a totally incoherent story about eggnog for 10 minutes? Same deal. But worse. Not just because it's not 1993 anymore and comedy has evolved, but also because we already had a Pauly Shore man, the clone has no business anywhere.
This dude is annoying - most of the stuff is a complete nonsense and he repeats his jokes wayyyy too many times!! So the first time you like 'heh yeah I see what you're trying to do here' and the fifth is 'I need to track you down and punch you in the face even though I'm a good person who doesn't get angry easily'
I knew this was going to be bad when I realised, two minutes in, that D'Elia has that desperately annoying habit of saying "like" in the way normal people use commas. He'd said like, so often, that I couldn't hear anything, it became white noise. It didn't help that it seemed he'd taken 80s comedians' advice and, presumably, snorted a couple of lines before taking the stage. Frantic, sweaty, incoherent does not make for the best stand up.
Jesus! Allah! Buddha! he is awful as church. This is what you get when friends tell you how funny you are, so you get your rich daddy to spend money on something you're not good at. The DJ/Actress Paris Hilton of comedy. Pauly shore is rolling in his hostel bed right now. Must be mentally ill or almost OD'ing to find this guy and his "comedy" funny. Drunk suicidal lonely accountants on meth and tall cans are funnier. If you think Miley Cyrus is a hot babe, Fox news a serious news show, and Donald Trump as intelligent, then this "comedian" is the future to you. Fluffy is funnier than this idiot. Seriously, live and let his career die!
