YOUR RATING

Jestination Unknown is an attempt to answer the question, what does India find funny? The clubs and pubs of India's metros are only a sliver of an answer to that question. English stand-up comedy maybe new in India but comedy itself isn't new to the country. The people of this country have laughed at kings, foreigners, neighbors, relatives, and more importantly, themselves. In a time when jokes are considered offensive, what if India answered otherwise?

Good concept but too much of vulgar 'humour'

I watched all the episodes of Season - 1 of Jestination Unknown. The concept is good and it was interesting to catch glimpses of the various destinations and their local people. The stand up was not brilliant, funny at times but mostly vulgar especially Vir Das's brand of comedy in this series. I dont particularly find body part jokes funny and it is quite annoying to hear F F F all the time. A good comedian would be funny without having to resort to excessive crass language and vulgarity.

Like I said, the concept is good but my rating is 5 because I did not really enjoy this type of comedy, if one can even call it that. I do enjoy some stand up shows, for example Biswa KR's Sushi currently on Amazon Prime is really hilarious. Anyway to each their own (brand of humour).

Thought Provoking Lighthearted Indian Local Comedy

I thoroughly enjoyed The Trip with the cast specially Kerala, Punjab and Leh. Not only did the show capture local humor perfectly but the sceneries of South India's Lakes and the Pennine North India mountains made me want to go there. This show did borrow somewhat from Sideways but in a less substantial way. This was a lighthearted, humorous road show taking you through Indian places which also required you to think! The art references, Local issues and common people turmoils throughout the show , was thought provoking and humorous at the same time.

I couldn't help but notice that the Lion share of hard work seems to be of Script Writers to have to come up with a content in right measures of humor, Facts , Local issues ,Arts and literary spontaneously based on place seem to be challenging. Great show !!

Not that funny

Vir Das jokes so matter of factly that at times he tries to prove a point logically and thinks it will be funny but more often than not it is not. Also, dont do that smug face when u think u have said something very intelligent (in a joke) and u r looking for an acknowledgement. Also adding f words everywhere DOES NOT MAKE IT FUNNY - this comment is for all indian standups. Four stars for visiting small indian cities which u wud not get to know abt otherwise.

A must watch show.

First three episodes were bit boring then it was fabulous. The way they followed traditions and did shows that was too cool. One advice which i would love to give to them is that when they used shruti seth and suresh menon(who are quite famous and known comedian compared to one you had in first three episode) they did much better than others. One should be famous apart for vir das.
