Trevor Noah: I Wish You Would

Trevor Noah returns and rocks Toronto with a much-needed dose of self-actualization and sardonic observation that stirs laughter as well as thought. Sharp and wicked smart is Noah's raportage on Covid events, politicians, & society's gullibility to Trumpian conspiracy nonsense.

Noah's impressions are spot-on, hysterical, and hit home with a swift right hook: Trudeau's trip to India is priceless - and I should know because I'm Canadian.

Trevor has blossomed into a fully self-aware individual, one who unafraid to turn that perceptive eye inward as well as out.

This show displays growth and an intellectual maturity that George Carlin himself would give a tip-of-the-hat to.

Truly enjoyable.

After a while not on stage, Trevor returns for his latest Netflix special, more like an inspirational speaker than a comedian. Despite some repetitive lines from his previous specials or even episodes of The Daily Show, Trevor couldn't really find "fresh" connections to all his jokes. It's not hard to detect some "exhausted" lines being recycled in this special. Even the audience's response wasn't that good. It's either we wished too hard, or we were putting a greater expectation after not seeing him on stage for 2 years.

A good warm up for him I guess, but hoping to see better ones soon. Keep it up Trevor!

He is so good at doing accents, impersonation etc and the last joke was the best with a twist bringing the show to a fantastic closing. Always love seeing him laugh at his own jokes too by giving us the cheeky grin and purported innocence. Overall, I enjoyed his show cos he really made me laugh so much and did not realise his hour was up. It went so quickly. Good entertainment..Thank you Trevor Noah very much.

Looking forward to seeing more of his stand-ups as he is such an intelligent comedian offering a unique perspective and always making sound reflections and sincere opinions through his brand of humour.

What happened to this guy? At least he was somewhat funny but this special is so boring and preachy... I fell asleep halfway around and later forced myself to finish it. Sure, he can do accents but that is far from enough, especially from someone like him. Not once did I laugh. I was just sitting and quietly thinking: is he serious? What the heck is this? It's not even mediocre level just pure garbage.

Regarding his messages that felt really forced: it was more like repeating talking points and not a stand-up show. It looks like the isolation really made these famous people even more out of touch with reality and common folks.

Also his material feels outdated, this would have been acceptable maybe 1 or 1.5 years ago. Also most people had enough of this whole worldwide sickness misery... let it go already!

As a fan of T N, this was a snoozefest and not even close to good as his previous worst stand-up. At best, this would've been an ok 15-20 min stand-up open-mic night gig. Him speaking German with barely any explanation to what was being said was boring. Then the rest of the fist half was just dragged out nonsense with zero laughs thus far. The last half was the only time I broke a few chuckles, and even those jokes dragged on endlessly. His monologue on The Daily Show is hilarious, so now it's clear the TDS writers come up with all the funny content. He needs to make sure they go with him if he still plans on doing stand-up as a career, because had I paid to see him live for that one hour, I would've walked out half way through and demanded a refund. It's a generous 5/10, only because I'm still a fan.
