Jeff Garlin: Our Man in Chicago

Jeff Garlin has once said he doesn't write any of his material, it's all improv. While it's impressive that he's able to get a special out of droning on and on, maybe it's time he reconsiders the medium. Maybe a podcast would be better suited? If you think writing stand-up specials is BS, then why is your impov comedy so much worse than your written comedies?

Being a funny guy does not equal being a funny standup comedian. If you ever needed something to prove that statement true, then you'd have your show. If you're looking to enjoy a standup comedian, better try your luck elsewhere.

This Is really the most boring stand up I've ever watched! (And I love Curb Your Enthusiasm)

I found his "bits" in the first part of the comedy special to be quite uninteresting and far from clever or humorous. If a comedian doesn't grab my attention at the outset, I switch to something else, which I did about a quarter of the way through his special. I never once laughed, chuckled OR smiled. He may have started his career in stand-up, but he's probably better off closing his career as an actor.

I love Jeff Garlin and I think he's funny but this standup is meh. Don't get me wrong, there are some funny parts but this isn't a very solid special.

There are some funny stories but overall they seem to drone on a little too long. He also tries to pull part of the audience in for a few of the jokes which seems improvised but not in a good way. The special clocks in at 58 minutes but I think he should've trimmed it down to around 35-40 minutes; Maybe some editing for the recording.

When I saw a special from Jeff, I immediately got excited. I watched on release day. If he ever has another special, I'd likely add it to my watch-playlist and get to it whenever I get to it.

Horrible show and really boring... i watched half and had to turn it off...
