Pete Davidson: Turbo Fonzarelli

The only person that could have written that has to be Pete David send himself. I keep giving this guy a chance after chance and I am consistently disappointed. He had his moments and I mean brief moments at SNL but he is absolutely terrible as a stand-up. Surprisingly he's better at acting so long as that role is basically exactly who he is in real life but at least it comes across as natural. I don't care about his dating history or anything of this sort but this guy got put on a pedestal and I don't believe he is deserving of one and I think this is my last foray into the world of Pete Davidson.

I can see that Pete's standup skills have improved since his first special. In this one, he's become more confident and has a smoother delivery. I like that he still comes across as somewhat relatable despite his fame - he hasn't lost the casual vibe that's become his signature. This special also had a good pace, with plenty of content, and just enough callbacks to show that he's put thought into making it a cohesive performance. There was definitely some dark humour, and I didn't enjoy the mum jokes (those who've seen it know what I'm referring to), but conversely there were multiple other parts when I laughed so hard it nearly hurt. If you like Pete's usual style of comedy, you'll enjoy this.

I was underwhelmed with Pete Davidson's first Netflix special, "Alive From New York," which struck me as a little sloppy and unpolished. It was pretty good, but it was his first special and the potential for well-written jokes was there.

Because of that, I hoped that this second special would demonstrate his growth. And it did. His jokes in "Turbo Fonzarelli" are better worked out and clearly more practiced. He was much more comfortable and confident with his stage presence, and ultimately it felt like the show was more for his fans and less for himself. I'm genuinely excited to watch Pete continue growing and evolving his comedy.

I love Pete Davidson but there's no way to make jokes about your mom like that correctly. The opener put a bad taste in my mouth for the rest of the show.

I've never left a bad review before but it was frankly disgusting.

The rest of it was actually really funny, it was just an incredibly poor choice to talk about someone he's related to the way he did for as long as he did.

After the first few minutes it got a lot better so I didn't want to tank the review too much just to be fair.

It's still a good watch for 55 minutes, a lot better than most of the recent Netflix comedy specials they've been coming out with.

I can only usually handle watching about 5 to 10 minutes of most stand up specials. I watched this one straight through. Pete's on a whole other level now. People love hating on this guy because he's an easy target and shows his vulnerabilities. And probably because he consistently dates hot women. Good thing he left SNL. He's coming into his own with his show Bupkis and now this special, which buries all his past ones. He's got an edge to him, and like most great comics he's a little off the rails and desperate with a sense of urgency. 2 names that pop in my head are Pryor and Greg Giraldo............
