Jo Koy: In His Elements

Jokoy is in the special, but he's mostly emceeing. He told jokes that I've heard from him before, but they're still funny. For me, it was too short and I felt like they could have shown other aspects of Filipino culture-maybe showcase top Filipino chefs in North America, fashion designers, singers, etc, but they only had 55 mins, so they did what they could. I think he also tried to be as current as possible with the people he featured, but some of the jokes went over the audience's heads, I felt, and the green jokes didn't get the reactions that they probably would have with a more westernized audience. The second comedian was very funny, though. I'm giving this special a 7 for the milestone it achieved and for pushing the diversity and cultural envelope and still being a fun watch.

I was expecting a stand up comedy with just him, that's why it's called "jo koy" but he was mostly promoting these other guests the entire 55 minutes. In my opinion, I understand that he was trying to teach us their culture, however, these people already know their own culture because that is where they're from! I did have a few laughs here and there, however I've heard some of these jokes already, I love jo koy, but this was very disappointing.

As much as I love what he's doing, trying to showcase his culture and all, the show, although there were a few laughs here and there, overall was pretty dull. Could have been much much better.

I was looking forward to watch this one since his first 2 stand ups were really good. Got disappointed when his guests got more airtime than him doing the actual show. If you are hoping for a stand up show like the first 2, then skip this one.

Jo joy is one of the funniest stand ups in the world right now, I can see what he was trying to do by introducing philipino comics and dancers to try and give them publicity, however it didn't really work. They weren't that good.
