Bill Burr Presents: Friends Who Kill

A series of standup comedians deliver desperately try hard material that missed and went nowhere. It wanted to be edgy, it wanted to be shocking, it wanted to go right to the edge and demonstrate why we should be less woke and less up tight maaaaaan, , but if this is what fighting for freedom of speech is all about it's hardly worth the effort. They had nothing to say and worse it had no entertainment value, it wasn't funny, With comedians like this out their trying to change the woke tide the battle is lost. Each proceeding act made it harder to keep watching, not because they were shocking us with edgy material but cos they were boring us with creepy unfunny un inventive content.

Steph Tolev was like an 8 year old working on her first comedy sketch based on 80s stereotypes.

Jimmy Carr has lost it the further he goes to his 'dark side'. He just can't make a funny dark joke any more. He leaves out the funny bit and just delivers the crude, and it doesn't even come across as offensive, it just falls flat. It bombs. And he is capable of being funny, his regular UK tv shows are often hilarious when he's working with other people in the confines of tv broadcasts, but alone, as a stand up, he has no quality control, maybe he's over thinking it. Maybe that's the problem with all these people, when they actually put their mind to it they bomb.

Fiends who kill Comedy, should have been the title. Much like everyone, being a fan of Bill Burr prompted me to click on it. Even Jimmy Carr's performance made his last standup special look like a masterpiece. Ronny Chieng got up and sang?

The two stars reflected the number of times I "chuckled" throughout this special. I'd give this a wide berth.

So I love Bill Burr and I like Michelle Wolf, and Dave Atell and I don't mind Jeff Ross and Ronny Chieng. So WTF is this? Uninspired and flat performances that are just meh.

This is why Netflix has only a set number Of days left. They just dump Money for low quality so they can add to their catalog. South Park is right, the streaming platforms just make content to fill their services and justify their existence as they slowly lose quality content to other services.

Save your hour and a half. Go for a walk. Watch Taylor Thomlinson or Bill Burr solo.

Honestly I haven't watch anything this bad in a while, I love Bill Burr listen to his podcast regularly and he is good, he didn't do much in this one, he was more of a announcer for others, but my oh my the others, the others were so bad so unwatchable, so unfunny that it was like looking at train accident waiting to happen. Jokes were plain and boring, Jimmy Carr that I also really like and had watch every other of his special was just awkward and unpleasant, his part was so off that the audience didn't react to his jokes and it was just that feeling of please someone make it stop. And the worst thing about this kind of shows is that it makes me like Stan in South Park, episode where nothing is funny to him, whole time I'm thinking why, why is the audience laughing when nothing is funny, granted audience didn't laugh that much to begin with so my guess is that they were just laughing out of courtesy or they were paid to laugh no other rational explanation. Just skip this it's only a one hour long but it feels like it's 3 or 4 hours because it's that bad. Washing dishes for one hour is more entertaining than this, and I'm not kidding. The only reason I gave this 2 is because it's like a number 2.

When I saw this show I heard nothing about it, no reviews, no trailers, nothing. I only knew Bill Burr so I expected a little entertainment and... having watched 85% of it (thank you Netflix for the Skip button) I can say that it is trash. Except for a few crumbs here and there of Bill and Jimmy, I can safely say that this show feels like it was tailor made for a Los Angeles crowd meaning completely safe and unfunny.

Somewhere between the dad jokes and the groomer I was like: "this show is garbage, I hope you got paid in full Bill for attaching your name to this Amber Heard show".
