Sheng Wang: Sweet and Juicy

I stumbled upon the 2022 stand-up comedy special "Sheng Wang: Sweet and Juicy" while looking through the available stand-up comedy shows on Netflix. And never having heard about Sheng Wang before, I opted to sit down and watch the show and see what he had to offer.

And I have to admit that his particular style of comedy was not particularly compatible with my sense of humor. Sheng Wang didn't make me laugh once throughout the course of the 60 minutes that the show ran for. So it was somewhat of a swing and a miss for me to sit through this stand-up comedy show.

It should be noted that Sheng Wang did feel at home on the stage, as it was something that came natural to him, and he certainly was capable of making the audience laugh. So it wasn't that he wasn't funny, but his comedy talents just didn't appeal to my taste. I found that he appeared sluggish and everything was in slow motion, so I was desperately lacking some in-your-face energy from Sheng Wang.

Without being brought to laughter, then I have to say that sitting through 60 minutes of the show felt rather prolonged and slow. I can't claim that I am in any rush to go out and watch more of Sheng Wang's shows, if there are any.

My rating of "Sheng Wang: Sweet and Juicy" lands on a three out of ten stars.
