Hasan Minhaj: The King's Jester

1. Hasan Minhaj is one of my favorite comedians and I'm glad he's coming back for more after Netflix cancelled Patriot Act. A non-stop laughfest with a near flawless delivery and Hasan's signature captivating personality.

This is by far the best comedy I have seen in recent years. I love Hassan's energy and eloquence. He is one of the few comedians you would watch without getting bored. I am in awe of how could talk like that. I have always had difficulty explaining my thought and ideas clearly and concisely, and I pay a great deal of attention when I watch stands ups or movies. Hassan is one of the few comics who checks those boxes. I have never seen him stumbling on words or stammering. I use to think Homecoming king was a pinnacle of comedy but this surpasses it by a mile. Highly recommended. Check out his other work if you haven't already.

The special was alright. Somewhat entertaining but breaks down to him being a dangerous clout chaser who had to stop because he has a wife and kids now and she wants him to be less dangerous or something. Really trying to post W's and ending up mostly L's. Trying to take credit for speaking truth to power and getting push back but it was mostly toothless and he received regular hate mail. Some of it was funny but not much. I'm giving it a 5 because he did it all in his regular style of comedy and storytelling so he was true to form. It felt a lot like cover for his show getting canceled too. 5 stars.

As an avid watched of Patriot Act , I missed Hasan's presence from TV after the show ended. I loved his Netflix special, Homecoming, and wished for something like that.

Well, this is not like that. While Homecoming told a coming of age tale of Minhaj growing up post 9/11, this special tells a hilarious tale of his adventures after he gained fame, and all the white-hat comedic journalistic efforts that he embarked on.

It's an excellent, thought-provoking, funny, heartfelt, deep, and surprisingly somber-at-times special that brings us Minhaj at his finest.

An absolute treat to watch!

In the span of a single show, he enthralled me, made me laugh, made me cry, and go through the entire spectrum of emotions.

I dont know how much of what he was saying is true... if it is, then damn bro im sorry ... if not.. then it was just making me sad for you... i kept on watching not because i know you can be funny ... but because i felt pity for you... and it was just making me sad.. if i watch a stand up.. then i want to be laughing.. but with this ... the bits that made me laugh where overshadowed by all the sad stuff.. even at some points i felt there were the 'laugh at anything person' sprinkled all over...

make me feel like you are only good at comedy when someone else is writing stuff for you to say on screen. U were awesome in patriot act... but this was just like... well let me say it like this.. it was like i was the plane going into the tower and this is what it felt like.
