Katt Williams: Woke Foke

Several years ago, I used to laugh and enjoy Katt Williams' comedy. The last two specials have been particularly unfunny for me. Not a smile crossed my face the entire time. I actually felt like I was talking with and trying to get away from the office gossip/conspiracy theorist! I just wanted to get away! Not funny, and cringe worthy. Blind football should have been sad, but he made fun of it. I get the point of his comments, but if you are going to do it... it HAS to be funny. It really wasn't. Two specials in a row for me, and this is my last attempt to watch Katt. It was that bad. Fond memories of previous years past, but today's Katt is sad and not at all funny. Preachy and just weird subject matter throughout. Was just a weird commentary about "facts" (again) and the "truth" (again). He didn't fall on his stool after every single punchline like last time, so that was an improvement. Let's face it: The entire comedy special was more like an uncomfortable conversation with someone you get the feeling you don't really like and want to get away from the entire time. I just wish I had pressed STOP or maybe even not PLAY at the very start. There came a time that Jerry Lewis was not on my play list... that time is now for Katt.

I really wanted to like this... I was really excited but that excitement soon died out with the lackluster material. Some of the jokes were repeated from his last Netflix special, ww3. Katt created a lot of hype about speaking truth but he really played it safe. In a time where there is plenty to talk about, this was boring, and really missed the mark.

I kept watching hoping it would get better and then it was over. Maybe it's time to retire.. because it just wasn't funny. Katt should just retire and stick to helping other comedians have their day in the spotlight. He said he only puts on comedians that are funnier than he is...and after this latest show, the bar isn't set very high.

Man I use to be a huge Katt fan going back to his before fame material but geez his last few standups have not been good. The writing the subject matters gave been just blah.

He seems to want to drag other comedians down because he has lost his way with his material. At the end of the day if you cant write funny material its no one else's fault but your own. He seems to want to attack follow comedians and political trends and all this stuff that's worn out and ppl are sick of hearing at this point.

Even the audience seemed uninterested during the show half the time. Gone are the days of him having us in tears from laughing instead we in tears from being bored.

I was looking forward to this after all the hype, and hoped it would be raw, honest comedy, without the constant need to self-censor so as not to offend our ever more fragile society, but this was so boring I couldn't even stay focused. I truly enjoyed his viral online interview, and as much as he talked about how clever he is, I was expecting to have a grand time. Dave Chapell and Ricky Gervais both managed to have me nodding my head and laughing, but not this drivel.

There was no humor here at all, and not even any new or interesting social commentary. Just a man on stage talking to hear himself talk. I lasted maybe 20 minutes.

Let me be clear that I hold no grievances against any of the subjects Katt Williams tackled in this special. However, the primary issue lies in its profound absence of humor. Throughout the entirety of the performance, not a single moment elicited genuine laughter from me. It was exceptionally uncomfortable to gather my family around the television, eagerly anticipating uproarious laughter from one of the comedy greats, only to be met with disappointment as it became evident that he had seemingly lost his once-remarkable ability to amuse us. Witnessing such a decline in comedic brilliance is truly disheartening and leaves one longing for the days when his comedic genius effortlessly brought joy and laughter to our lives. Time to hang it up, Katy.
