Bad Thoughts

I'm not surprised the mixed critique this show is getting. However, I am surprised at how little people are talking about the way it was filmed. Talk about bold! I'm not sure if Netflix just threw money at this, but every sketch looked like a different feature length movie. I give a lot of credit to the DP and crew behind the scenes that pulled this off. Definitely not an easy task to do. 10/10

As for the comedy, it's definitely more on the raunchy side. It's bluer than blue and filled with sex and taboo subjects. So if you're not into that sort of thing, I'd say don't watch. But if you are, then this show is for you.

Am I the only one who thought this was basically a longer version of "Bill Burr Presents Immoral Compass".

But I'm guessing barely anyone has seen that, since it's on Roku, so no one will probably notice lol...

It's okay, and has a few good ones, but also a fair few bad ones, so it's very hit and miss.

I'm not the biggest fan of Tom Segura, I used to be, but something hasn't felt right about his comedy for a while, but it's still not as bad as Burnt Chrysler.

There's some inside jokes from 'Your Mom's house' and the Rogan-Sphere, but like I say, the good ones are pretty funny, offensive, gross and crazy which I like and the others just miss my sense of humour.

Give it a watch, you're bound to like a few of them.

Tom Segura's Bad Thoughts is exactly what the title promises - a no-holds-barred dive into the most twisted corners of his comedic mind. Known for pushing the boundaries of taste, Segura doesn't just cross the line in this special - he annihilates it. With brutal honesty and a delivery that's as deadpan as it is devastating, he takes aim at everything from personal trauma to the absurdities of everyday life.

The humor is dark, crude, and unapologetically offensive. If you're easily shocked or looking for clean laughs, this isn't the show for you. But for fans of his previous work - or those who appreciate comedy that's fearless, sick-minded, and brilliantly wrong - Bad Thoughts is a masterclass in how far stand-up can go when it refuses to play nice.

It's not for the faint of heart, but that's exactly the point.

It's what we would call in the UK a Marmite show..you're either going to love it or hate it..in either case NEVER read the ingredients label..!

A show for those with a short sketch attention span, that would invariably, if allowed to continue for say another dozen episodes, lose its shock value and numb the observer with the brutality, as the next instalment tries to out-shock the previous one...there's only so far that road can take you before creativity needs to step in..à la Black Mirror.

Do wonder if Tom Segura isn't a secret Monty Python fan as they did some like this 40+ years ago in a different era, but kept evolving which gave them longevity..

This show is the epitome of unfiltered and brash comedy in the best ways. I loved it.

I'm very surprised to see so many negative reviews. I think those are partially by Tom Segura haters, which I'm still trying to fully understand, but it seems like quite a few of the online trolls have something out for the guy.

Either way, the series is doing something different and unique. Each episode delivers a rapid-fire mix of unsettling and shockingly hilarious scenarios, which I find impressive and very fun. It's definitely NOT for the easily offended, but for those who enjoy comedy that pushes limits and dives into the bizarre, Bad Thoughts is worth a watch.

Beyond the writing and jokes, the series is also surprisingly cinematic. Each sketch is shot with polish and I thought the team behind the camera did an extraordinary job. It elevates the chaos, giving even the most absurd moments a strangely beautiful, engaging edge.
