Drew Michael: Red Blue Green

I even really enjoyed the previous stand up of his with Suki Waterhouse and Red Blue Green is just a solo thing with an audience. Drew Micheal is so awesome I wish I could hangout with him; he's brilliant! A little dark but stays interesting in the bulk of it. Crazy how this is pretty funny in some bits a lot of it just flows well. I love the instagram thing and the few things he said about Micheal Jackson.

I'm blown away. Never heard of this guy and his takes on life really hit home. More than just comedy. This is real and will hit you in the gut and cause you to reflect on yourself especially the last five minutes. Highly recommend.

If you are looking for a typical, mindless, constantly funny stand-up comedy show, move along, this is not it. But if you enjoy thought provoking entertainment and dark, witty, raw, psychological humor and can appreciate longer build ups to a punchline, you need to watch this masterpiece.

I saw this released today on HBO Max having never heard of Drew Michael before, checked the reviews on here to see what the people were saying and immediately knew it was up my alley.

I enjoyed every single bit of this special. Drew is a brilliant comedian, and has an incredible way with words-I was completely enthralled with every setup, no matter how long it took to get to each "punchline."

This is one of the best comedy specials I have ever seen-number one being Bo Burnham's mind-blowingly amazing work of art "Inside." The last "bit" of Red Blue Green (more like a beautiful, heart wrenching monologue) was INCREDIBLE. It KNOCKED MY METAPHORICAL SOCKS OFF.

If you identify with any of the things I mentioned above, PLEASE watch this. You're welcome. Now I can't wait to watch his other special that was heavily criticized and under-appreciated by the same people that wrote bad reviews for this one.

Another super intelligent/well made and truly funny special worth driving into. Drew is deeply thought provoking, hyper conscious and always seems to be dishing quality material that will make you reflect; and hopefully expand the mind too. His wit and hilarious joke writing is something he's worked very hard on and it shines through. I believe he's leveled up from his last special and I'm happy to see him continue to grow like this on stage and even off therapeutically.

This special is something sweet to bite into and important to see, I think based on what's said especially (see for yourself - watch the whole thing) Food for thought! Besides, I'm curious if Fallon will say anything in response... (he and the rest of Hollywood should watch it ;) way to go, Drew! On to the next!

Full disclosure- I actually checked this out because I heard on a Podcast how bad the last part was and wanted to see it for myself. I started watching it and the first thing I thought was- the end must be REALLY Bad because the beginning and middle were both really funny so he must just tank and go down in flames at the end. To my happy surprise though- he didn't.

True, this is not your typical set-up\punchline\next joke kind of special and if that's what you're looking for, you're not going to enjoy it. Instead of a show where you are going to be chuckling\laughing at a barrage of jokes to the pace of maybe 35 times in an hour, you'll get maybe 15-20 laughs in throughout the course of his special; they take time but they are well earned.

I don't think that I would take someone to see this show on a first date. It exhibits and requires way too much empathy, introspection, and vulnerability to comfortably display in front of someone that you don't know; but I would highly recommend it for anyone who is a fan of this type of comedy.

Maybe the one thing I'd say that would alleviate some of the criticism is to leave the last 5 minutes in (loved it and wouldn't change a word) but maybe not to END the special like that; kind of leaves the audience in a cerebral shell-shocked place and at the end of the day your audience paid to be entertained so I think that you have to end it with a laugh just so they walk out of there feeling good because of that last shot of serotonin.

I'll definitely be looking for any upcoming specials that he has.
