An Evening with Tim Heidecker

From the beginning, Tim tries to inject awkwardness into the show and over does it to the extreme point of me toiling around with whether this is funny or not. It just becomes ridiculously immature. And finally when he does seem to gather his faculties about himself he just bombs and then played some mental masturbation mind game garbage that's just absolutely NOT funny in any way, shape or form. I lost an immense amount of respect for Tim Heidecker from this stand-up. I went more than halfway through just hoping, for his sake and mine, that he would do or say something or anything funny. But that did not happen. And to other fans of Tim's other stuff, go ahead, see for yourself! And yes I do get the paradoxical ant-comedy aspect and in some cases it works, but definitely not in this one. I have it 2 stars only because of the microphone fumbling introduction. Everything else sucked. Boooo!

An hour you will never get back.can't believe this bloke got a special. I wouldn't call him a comedian

If you thought that title was funny then you love this awkward on purpose waste of time. Fans will say "you just don't get it" but like he's said about his other shows "it's all in the edit" and well this was not edited.

The one review aside from mine written on here by Mr. scott-spinner proclaims "just not funny....I wouldn't call him a comedian," while assigning the special one star.

And therein lies the brilliance of Tim and this entire special.

Without a nod or wink to the audience, Tim delivers an hour of perfectly crafted anti-humor in the persona of a bombing stand-up comic. It is so flawlessly executed that those not familiar with Tim, like the aforementioned reviewer, will fully believe he is an awful comedian. Tim and Eric has been pushing the boundaries of comedy in a Kaufman-esque way for a long time, and it is amazing and refreshing to see a comedian with the skill and the balls to intentionally suck for an hour, and that is the joke.

As a Tim fan this was very hard to watch.

Literally nothing funny was said in one hour of stand up.

"I like Lady Gaga, but whats next? Lord GooGoo?" This is the quality of jokes through out the show

Also lets not forget the comedy gem "Do you remember the band U2" repeated 20 times

Just horrible.
