Katt Williams: World War III

I was literally just saying last week how I missed Katt, I was reminiscing about how funny and revolutionary his comedy was. I turned on Netflix today and to my very pleasant surprise, this special popped up. No questions asked, pressed play immediately.

Oh god i regret it. I need to bleach my memory. What happened to Katt??

Maybe he wasn't that funny to begin with and it was all about the time and place of his original comedy. I don't know.

I love Katt Williams. But this just didn't deliver. He has a lot of great ideas, but didn't bring them home effectively. I think his jokes, especially about religion and the Bible, we're just lost on people. I appreciated that he was intentionally not taking sides politically or culturally, but it was lacking.

Katt, Kevin, Trevor and Dave are my favorite comedians.

So I was waites for his new work.

Although he says some truths, is lacking humor like his previous specials.

Still love him, still support him, but I'm dissapointed with this special.

I've always been a huge fan of Katt's work, but this performance was not good. In the past, his "pimp" persona added humor to his delivery. In this special, he removed that persona and replaced it with a goofy voice and awkward mannerism. I found his new delivery more annoying than funny. There were a few funny moments in his act, but overall it lacked creativity and originality and replaced them with raunchy and effortless cliches. The overall feel of this special is that he put it together without any heart just to fulfill a contractual obligation.

I love, love, love Katt but this was a disappointment.

I sat down ready to be rolling on the floor but instead, I felt like I was waiting on a punchline throughout the entire special. He said a couple funny things and showed a little physical comedy but not enough to make up for what it lacked. It wasn't nearly as good as his earlier performances. With all the crazy that's gone on the past several years, I was expecting him to have some major jokes.

I'm still a fan though and hope that he'll come back with something that's totally gonna make up for this flop. I have faith that if anyone can do it, Katt is one of those people.
