What the hell is this? Tried episode 2, but couldn't get to the end. I get it's a live show with guests and some 'funny' prerecorded segments, so there will be a few hits and misses but I was struggling to identify any of the 'hits'. One of the reasons shows are prerecorded (and live shows avoided) is all the dross can be edited out, but I feel in this case that wouldn't leave much left.

I like John Mulaney as a stand up, but this was clearly just a quick cash in, post drug rehabilitation, requiring very little effort and some favours from showbiz 'pals'.

Maybe it will get better as it progresses but I don't have the strength to give this another go unfortunately.

I last watched this about 30 years ago and it's nothing like as good as I remembered it unfortunately. I love Burt Reynolds and this is often quoted as one of his best films, however I don't see it. Starts okay ( if a little by the numbers ) and the scene on the boat is easily the best scene in the film, but everything else before or after feels pretty flat.

Burt is always good to watch and whilst the supporting actors are good quality, they aren't given much to work with and there are whole portions of this film where almost nothing happens.

The ending comes up really quick and leaves quite a few questions unanswered, but to be honest by then I was glad to see the credits rolling.
