Jerry Seinfeld: 23 Hours to Kill

I'm very surprised by the amount of negative reviews on here. There are much more reviews than for most other stand-up comedians, which proves that Jerry Seinfeld is quite famous, and I think people are too critical for this specific show. It's like people expecting watching Seinfeld the series, one we almost all loved, but this is his stand-up comedy and I thought he had some clever well thought of jokes, certainly well brought as it all looks very natural with him. I saw better stand-up comedies, that I agree, but disliking this show is something I don't really get. It's an hour of easy entertainment about daily things we don't really stand still at, but where Jerry Seinfeld thinks about and in some cases his analysis is spot on. Good enough for me.

I think Seinfeld has run out of interesting things to say. I won't totally bash him because there were a few funny moments in this special but for the most part it didn't seem like the same Seinfeld.

There were a few moments that seemed like he was testing new material. If you're a Seinfeld fan, give it a try. Unfortunately, it won't be a special I'll be revisiting in the future.

JS is a brilliant comedian but this is just flat. The audience laugh and applaud every sentence, when only one in ten are actual jokes. It's weird. I'd rather have seen him doing this in a more intimate club setting. This feels like an audience who have shelled out to see a great comic so are adamant to laugh at every line even when it's dated and unfunny.

One routine on Pop Tarts kind of sums up how dated this routine is. Why not do a standup about his Comedians In Cars shows? Must be some fantastic anecdotes from that. But instead we get the observational humour of a 65yo millionaire who thinks relationships are strange and Pop Tarts are topical. 4 stars for the opening stunt.

There are some funny parts but the rest is kind of flat. I feel like his high pitched voice thing for punchlines has just gotten worse and worse.

First off, Jerry Seinfeld looks great! It's hard to believe he's 65 years old.

He starts the show off with a helicopter stunt that is pretty amazing, though it has little to do with his set.

His hour on stage is what he's always done: observational humor. If you don't like it, don't watch it. He's not a prop comic. He doesn't really do characters. He won't break out a banjo and sing a song. Yes, he moves around a lot but that's because he's in a big theater, not a cozy night spot.

He sticks to what he knows best, which is everyday annoyances, life, and family. There's nothing political (thank god!) and his language is pretty clean. And that's just fine.

If you expect something else, don't bother. Jerry is Jerry. Always has been. Always will be. And that's just nice and good!
