Jimmy Carr: His Dark Material

Simple as, if you're a fan of Jimmy you need to see this, just try not to get too distracted by his amazing new hairline lol.

Probably up there as one of his best but he's always been constant and a lot of laugh out loud moments here.

Don't watch if you're easily offended, THIS IS NOT YOUR SAFE SPACE!

Another piece of Netflix garbage. Just stop paying this dude, he's just recycling old material. Bad jokes, making fun of the audience and feeling superior. Man is he annoying and tasteless. I liked his old stuff, but this is just a lazy money grab. AVOID!

Nice to have more comedy on Netflix as we all need a laugh. Some contemporary jokes on the previous two years subjects like covid, vaccine, black lives matter, veganism. Brings up some good points on todays society with his dark humour. Carr has some jokes from previous shows but still hilarious nevertheless.

The new camera angle is a little annoying panning around him unnecessarily. Would have preferred to see the audience more when talking to them.

This was partly funny but sadly it seems that Jimmy is getting old and scared of being cancelled. He can still joke about pedophiles but not about BLM. He is playing it safe throughout. His Covid-19 rant was a bit pathetic. He used to be edgy but that is now just ancient history.

There are basically three groups of reviews of this show: people who like Jimmy for his offensive material and therefore think he can do no wrong (and any criticism is invalid). People who find his material beyond-the-pale offensive and hate him. I'm in the third category. I'm a big fan and have watched all of his standup shows many times. His first Netflix special was great, although I had a vague feeling at times that I'd heard some of the material before. His second Netflix special -- the "greatest hits" show -- was by definition disappointing if you already knew his material. So I had great hopes for this show, which I expected to be all new. And although he does hit the mark occasionally, you can kind of guess where he's going all the time. He's still a fantastic performer, but there's definitely less of the sharp wordplay that was a big part of his fame.
