Jo Koy: Live from the Los Angeles Forum

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.

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.

With all the negative happening in the world im glad he used his platform to tackle on some of the issues he feels passionate about, of course this might not be for everyone but for people going through it, the message he left about sacrifice and success was comforting, and as a fan. Im glad I got to hear it.

Talking about the Filipino culture was also great, it puts a perspective of his culture for the viewers and even if youre not Filipino you would find similarities, I think its the beauty of immigrants, they share a common ground where the tools mentioned might be different but there is some part of the context that you've experienced.

Nonetheless, it shows Jokoy as a comedian in a different light and he even talks about his struggle with his first Netflix Special. I dont think it was too dragging, I think it was something he feels like it had to be said. He is also a father so in retrospect he mightve also wanted to do it as a message for his son and the young people.

Loved it!

This is the same set he had when I saw him in Tampa! When I tell you it was my favorite comedy show I've ever seen in person or TV! I'm rewatching it and still laughing. (Not as much but I love seeing that he is using the same jokes he practiced and perfected on this Netflix special) I've been waiting to see if he did the same thing and now I can't wait for my dad to see it. He was talking directly to him for half the show!

When I tell you, live!, I was in tears yo! JoKoy is my favorite comedian right now and top % of all times. I can't think of my top 5 right now but I will find a way to put him in it. Because dude is incredible. I hate COVID jokes but he had some good ones! He is just hilarious.

Watch it! If you don't laugh, you're loss. He is funny as hell!

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!!!
