Look, I'll make it simple enough for you. You like stand-up comedy? Try watching some "Comedians of the World" episodes, you'll enjoy it.
Right out of the bat, it's pretty clear that this is all about comedy and diversity, and it does a great job at both of those things. Here you have 47 different comedians, all doing a 30-min routine, coming from the US, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, South Africa, UK, France, the Middle East, Mexico, Brazil, the Netherlands, Germany and India. There's men, there's women, there's fat people, skinny people, gay people, straight people, people speaking different languages, and all of them are funny in their own right.
You're probably not going to like all of them, but there's enough stuff here for all to enjoy. If you have watched all episodes that you think you might like, why not put some subtitles and try something new?

I found myself laughing hysterically at some of Nish Kumar's insights/jokes. However the audience was not laughing at all. I think this might be because he was so fast spoken that they didn't catch the nuances of the joke. I watch with subtitles and recommend this to get the fulfillment the comedians so richly give.
I found Mae Martin's routine extremely vulnerable, but intriguing and ultimately funny.
I watched a couple of the US show and look forward to seeing more. With such variety, I'm sure there is something for most people here. I love the format. Thank you Netflix.

In the very first episode where Neal Brennan talks about the immigration ban policy and trying to defend Muslims, he is actually being islamophobic suggesting Muslims are nice guys if they do not follow their religion. He explains it with a music fan analogy. A fan knowing all the songs of fav celebrity and going crazy is ISIS. I am a practising Muslim and I am not ISIS. Please be less ignorant when you are being 'funny'
This is not comedy. Simply look at the Netflix specials for solo comedians, then this rabble and you will see its just a hit and hope test!
None of these comedians are funny, they don't have a presence and you sure would not buy a ticket to a gig of theirs after watching this, such a waste, it could have been an opportunity for upcoming comics, but this just spoils it all with round the block comedians already passed over for not having enough!
Netflix, you are better than this!

The concept of regrouping stand up comedians in one special is awesome. The level of the French stand up comedians is really low though. France has so many good comedians but Netflix brought us the worse of the worse.
