Comediantes do mundo

The concept of regrouping stand up comedians in one special is awesome. The level of the French stand up comedians is really low though. France has so many good comedians but Netflix brought us the worse of the worse.

I found myself laughing hysterically at some of Nish Kumar's insights/jokes. However the audience was not laughing at all. I think this might be because he was so fast spoken that they didn't catch the nuances of the joke. I watch with subtitles and recommend this to get the fulfillment the comedians so richly give.

I found Mae Martin's routine extremely vulnerable, but intriguing and ultimately funny.

I watched a couple of the US show and look forward to seeing more. With such variety, I'm sure there is something for most people here. I love the format. Thank you Netflix.

First off you need to address the audience for this show. The were just awful. I do not know where they got these people or what was wrong with them but they would not know funny if it bit them on the face. Neal Brennan did one of the best sets I have ever seen him do and they barely clapped for him. Not sure if it was the subject matter or what, but they seemed very sensitive. When recording these specials the audience is pretty important. No matter how funny or skilled a comedian is, the audience ultimately sets the mood. This audience was like a dead fish for most of the comics. The next problem is the mix of comedians. They have some incredible comedians mixed in with people that should never hold a microphone. I think most people will find themselves just skipping some of these comics about 4 minutes into their sets. But one thing is for sure, these comics do not belong on the same stage together. Here were my individual ratings (1 to 10) for the US and Canadian comics sets. There are many more but this will give you a start. 1. Neal Brennan 9 Just a great set. The audience did not seem to like the subject matter but F them. Great writer and great stand-up. 2. Chris D'Elia 8 I have seen better from him but this was still good. Great comic. 3. Nicole Byer -1 I don't have words to describe how terrible she is. She just screams and laughs at her own "jokes". No thank you.. ever. 4. Nick Swardson 5 I have seen him so much better than this. Just a bad day? 5. DeAnne Smith 6 Not my type of humor but pretty good. Crowd liked her. 6. Ivan Decker 8 Never seen him before. Thought he was excellent. 7. Dave Merheje 3 Lot of screaming + Adderall? + bad material = not good. 8. K. Trevor Wilson 7 I found this guy pretty amusing. Interesting style. All in all I would suggest giving this show a chance. Just make sure you keep the remote in your hand and a finger on the ff.

A handful of comics from 13 different countries or regions (US, Anglophone Canada, UK, Australia/New Zealand, South Africa, India, Mexico, Germany, Brazil, France, Middle East, Francophone Canada, Netherlands) highlight their acts with local influence. Subtitles recommended to catch the most jokes. Great way to pass time alone or with small group.

In the very first episode where Neal Brennan talks about the immigration ban policy and trying to defend Muslims, he is actually being islamophobic suggesting Muslims are nice guys if they do not follow their religion. He explains it with a music fan analogy. A fan knowing all the songs of fav celebrity and going crazy is ISIS. I am a practising Muslim and I am not ISIS. Please be less ignorant when you are being 'funny'
