Jo Koy: Live from the Los Angeles Forum

Wow the reviews here from spam accounts and haters, they must be extremely lonely not to appreciate this show.

Jokoy's the best when making people laugh and engaging with them. New stories, same funny voice and great personality! I still love the way he impersonates his mom, and connecting with different cultures/races.

He can make you laugh so hard but then appreciate his talent. Might not be the best stand up comedian, but he's top tier right now.

I already watched this 3 times now and I'm still laughing so hard! Makes you really feel great after all the stresful news being blurted out recently.

What would comedy be if it's not pushing boundaries? If it doesn't have a chance of offending someone? If it doesn't tell truth to it?

Jokoy looks back and tells a background story about his first show on Netflix, and turns it into comedy. At the time, it was probably the scariest moment in his career: trying to make it as a comedian, and risking all his livelihood in this one show. He compared his experience with a white counterpart, where an exec saw the asian accent as racist and the white accent was normal. He's pushing boundaries here. And he did offend many. But he told the truth via his experiences that many could relate. Truth be told, many Asians don't think that the bits he does with an accent is racist, but actually relate-able. His point is that systemic racism is brought up by not having representations of other cultures, and he lived through it to tell the tale.

Among the other themes are: empowering women, minorities, and deconstructing cliché topics.

How he uses comedy to bring light to the topics he brings up is just comedy at its peak.

I have followed and loved Jo Koy for a long time. This special was only comedy for about half the show then a full tantrum about not being picked up by Netflix for what seemed like an hour.

Jo, what do you say to comedians like Jorge Lopez, Carlos Mencia, Russel Peters, the Kings of Comedy and a slew of other comedians who aren't white and have had specials on Netflix and network TV shows. Someone saying no to you isn't systemic racism its just life. Honestly the special who asked you not to have the accent was probably worried about getting fined or canceled because of your joke. You have lived in LA to long.

Please you fans are begging you to do comedy, we love comedy to laugh and get away from reality not to hear a Joe Biden 60 minutes interview.

Funniest special so far!!! Could not stop laughing. Highly recommend! He really has a gift, I have not found a funnier comedian out there hands down. I love how he brings stage presence with audience interaction and impeccable timing. I was scared to have a stroke from laughing so hard in this one.

Love everything about JoKoy! I don't know how anyone can not laugh at his performance to be honest. Every joke right from the start was remarkable. Pandemic to 80's- 90's growing up to health conditions. He is a legend and will go down as such! Stand up comedy at its best. Keep doing what you do Jo! We love you!!!

Jo Koy is a very funny and endearing comic. His stand up stories about his life and family are self-effacing and funny. His jokes about Filipino family life and Asian culture are revealing and funny. Koy has had several specials of different natures since his first big one on Netflix in Seattle. This one is is his second best. He plays very well with the audience, and he manages to engage them in a personal way, even in a forum as big as the one in Los Angeles where this one was filmed. Boy takes some time ion this one to handle post-COVID life, his son-a usual target- and his relationship with Netflix over the years. Koy is a great comedian and this special is worth seeing.
