Trevor Noah: I Wish You Would

Trevor continues to impress by just being himself - a smart, intelligent, perceptive, and thoughtful comedian and human being.

He touches upon a broad range of topics, making light of his part-Swiss heritage, in his unique way and an audience with even a somewhat global perspective will appreciate his insights and jokes.

Trevor leans heavily on experiences from his upbringing, diverse cultural connections, and being based in the States in recent years.

Didn't realize where the hour went by and I was surprised when I saw the timeline toolbar and realized the show's almost over.

His Indian bit was done very tastefully and I believe his audience from the subcontinent would enjoy how the scene and jokes were setup.

So, I'm a fan of Trevor Noah, or at least used to be until I stopped watching the Daily show because it just dropped off.

And I really, really loved his old stand-up. New, fresh perspective on things. New stories, new takes. Exciting stuff.

I didn't have big expectations going into this, but most of this is regurgitated older material of his loosely strung together and it feels lazy. Maybe it's that he's too much in his bubble and has writers for his jokes on the show. Maybe he had a three show deal with Netflix and just had to get it over with.

My guess is, the guy's burnt out.

And I'm sure he'll come back strong, once he's stopped doing the Daily Show.

I tried watching The Daily Show after Jon Stewart left but I just no longer found it funny. I have nothing against Trevor Noah. I think he is very smart and knowledgeable and I agree with him on many, many issues. I just don't find him that funny. This special is no exception. He is bright and funny. He also is a great impressionist and his mastery of languages is very impressive. However, I think this is an average stand up special with some very funny moments. I understand he is leaving the long running news show to go back to full time stand up. I am not sure that is a great move if this is an example of his best material.

Trevor Noah returns and rocks Toronto with a much-needed dose of self-actualization and sardonic observation that stirs laughter as well as thought. Sharp and wicked smart is Noah's raportage on Covid events, politicians, & society's gullibility to Trumpian conspiracy nonsense.

Noah's impressions are spot-on, hysterical, and hit home with a swift right hook: Trudeau's trip to India is priceless - and I should know because I'm Canadian.

Trevor has blossomed into a fully self-aware individual, one who unafraid to turn that perceptive eye inward as well as out.

This show displays growth and an intellectual maturity that George Carlin himself would give a tip-of-the-hat to.

Truly enjoyable.

As a fan of T N, this was a snoozefest and not even close to good as his previous worst stand-up. At best, this would've been an ok 15-20 min stand-up open-mic night gig. Him speaking German with barely any explanation to what was being said was boring. Then the rest of the fist half was just dragged out nonsense with zero laughs thus far. The last half was the only time I broke a few chuckles, and even those jokes dragged on endlessly. His monologue on The Daily Show is hilarious, so now it's clear the TDS writers come up with all the funny content. He needs to make sure they go with him if he still plans on doing stand-up as a career, because had I paid to see him live for that one hour, I would've walked out half way through and demanded a refund. It's a generous 5/10, only because I'm still a fan.
