The Golden One has held the spot as my favorite comedy special since I saw it live. With all the added documentary footage and editing jokes, this might just be my favorite piece of art. If you feel alienated by this special because of its refusal to be a traditional comedy special, you're really missing the point.
The new wave of comedy has been pioneered by performers who are willing to be vulnerable and blend art forms. The state of comedy has evolved into a one-man show, and performers like Whit who are pushing boundaries should be given unlimited creative resources.
A24 is a consistently high-quality outlet, so is HBO. With Bo Burnhan and Chris Storer producing, this is poised to be a landmark special.
