Bill Burr: Drop Dead Years

The show is terrific. But I feel that Bill is being pulled back all the time the way that Jim Jeffries was. Once fully unleashed again we could get him back to his funniest self and when funny he is superb.

I would like to urge everyone to report false and political reviews like the one by a character called Khalid_t. Assuming he is real he posts political statements completely at odds with Bill Burrs comedy. So very odd.

Back to Bill, there are some corkers to be enjoyed here. Don't fast forward or skip because his asides and one liners are him often at his best.

The downside?

Why does he shout so much?!

One of his best specials. It is all of the things I appreciate about Bill Burr's style. If you're a long time fan of the podcast or his stand up, there's still plenty of fresh material here to keep you invested and laughing. If you're neither, it's a fantastic stand up special that feels organic and unapologetic for all the right and funny reasons. Tame by Bill Burr's standards, but well thought out and unbelievably funny in a world full of cookie cutter stand up material. There are times when the jokes drag on just a bit too long, but I'm genuinely grasping at straws trying to find constructive criticism here. One of my favorite stand up specials in a long time.

The people who rated this special lower than 5 are in the category of people who Bill talks about that wear namaste shirts and make heart shapes with their hands.

If it's not for you, be fair and rate 5. People are such harsh a**holes these days.

My husband, brother and I are huge fans on Bill, especially 'I'm Sorry You Feel That Way' and 'Walk Your Way Out' specials, and we were so pleased to have the same kind of vibe back with this one.

I agree with some of the other comments that it's funnier when you rewatch it because of the things you miss.

He is one of the GOATS, we had to pause to stop laughing in parts.

This is the best of Bill Burr's entire comedic persona, but more distilled, concentrated and refined.

This special might not be for everyone, particularly those people who want him to remain as the Bill Burr of 10-15 years ago. Buy, as a long-time fan, I can safely say that he's reached a nexus of his comedic evolution in "Drop Dead Years." He combines his own personal evolution with introspective, bald-faced honesty (pun intended?) that's still very much so the same Bill Burr. He isn't rebranded, muzzled, or watered down - he's just a wiser, reflective lunatic who, despite having opened his heart up a bit more, somehow still spares no one.

Its weird, the first half is mostly Bill talking about how hes learning to chill out a bit in his old age...and it wast funny. It came off as safe, middle of the road, aging comedian stuff...I was worried that Bill had finally become the staring old man whos actually dead on the inside from his famous bit....but around the half way point, the old troll goblin we all love comes out and starts swinging for the fences. I had some good laughs.

Honestly I hope Bill is taking care of himself, but I think this special shows us 2 ways his career could go at this point...into safe mainstream weak comedy, or into the future as a bonafide immortal comedy legend.

Bill do what you gotta do in your home life, but keep that RAGE on the STAGE. It's you at your best.
