Gabriel Iglesias: Stadium Fluffy

Fluffy has been my number one for quite sometime now, even though im all about dark humour and fluffy doesn't really go down that road so much. So before watching this i told my friends that this show will make me decide if he's still my number 1...

So after watching it (literally just finished it now),

Drumrolls!🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁

I realised that this wasn't all about comedy..this was also about connecting with the legend (fluffy) himself, i feel like i know him more as a person now and i think we (fans) needed that. SO TO BE FAIR i wont use this special to rank his ability to make me laugh, I mean if i was told to rate this just by the jokes then I'd definitely give something lower than 8 because he's done so much better before. But to rate this as a whole!?...A solid 8.

My wife liked it. She's Latina and I'm white so maybe I don't understand it. I just don't get all the cheers without making me laugh even though the headline was something like unity in laughter. He was trying to either be uncancelled or prevent from being cancelled most of the time. He mentioned kevin hart as not giving power to the cancel culture but most of what Gabriel talked about was giving power to cancel culture. If they didn't have power he wouldn't have mentioned it. Dude had the best night of his life and it was like watching someone in the witness stand. He is a great sound artist and a story teller, I just think for the venue it would be more attack and less defense.

I prefer earlier Gabriel. His first special was absolutely hilarious. Other ones that he had were also pretty good, too. This one, unfortunately, didn't do anything for me. He cites Kevin Hart for doing a stadium show, so he wanted to try it. That's fair. However, Kevin Hart's stadium show was also not funny- comedy rarely translates to huge arenas. This was also pretty long- usually, that's a bonus, but the comedy just wasn't happening for me, so I was waiting for the end before it was the end. I notice that Martin is making lots of appearances in his videos now. Nobody is there to see him, not sure why he gets pulled out at shows.

People had enough of that and try to move on or simply doesn't want to hear that in a supposedly entertaining type of event.

The other parts are also not really good. The almost two hours were not used well.

Mostly longer stories that are kind of boring and lacking in the jokes apartment. It felt like self advertising and bragging.

Too much focus on the event and not on delivering quality to the audience.

He is not my favorite comedian but he has better specials than this.

I believe the long hiatus ruined some (or most) standup performers. They became disconnected, out of touch with people.

I like Fluffy a lot. The old shows were something new, and he's still the best while imitating sounds and people. But this one, this newest show, is just too long, and while waiting for the puns I felt like getting a preachers speech about life and mislife crisis.

The puns he made were funny, though. But it was 'too american' for my taste, with all the talk about cancel culture, vaccine and love your neighbour speeches. So I'll await the next Fluff round where I hope to find some new moves rather than the old safe tour in the latest part of comedy history. Tge show surely is good enough for a little laugh, but not wver as good as Ricky Gervais.
