Bill Burr: I'm Sorry You Feel That Way

" I'm sorry you feel that way " is by far Bill Burr's best work. The continuity is fluid and natural. I have been following Burr's work since the last two specials; which were great. He's just pure funny. If , like me, you connect to his material, you'll come back for more. Watch his interviews with Conan; they really shows his wit and outstanding sense of humour. There is a multitude of topics he talks about in this special, and none of them lack humour or the "punch". Burr's personality adds to the comedy. There is a sort of raw-finesse in his act. This I believe comes from experience and a natural comedic flair. I have hardly laughed this much watching any other comedy special. He's one of the best we have. It is worth one watch, at least. If you're easily offended or have ever been offended by stand-up, don't watch this or any stand-up comedy because that's hypocritical.

This is prime Bill Burr. I laughed continually throughout.

I still can't believe, how good this special is - so, I registered here to write my first review:

Of course, Bill Burr is a very "special" character and I get why quite some people (conservatives and liberals alike) dislike him.

If you know and love comedy though, you have to recognize the ridiculous level of "Comedic Storytelling meets Acting" in this special. It's not only funny as hell, it is highly relatable and an emotional rollercoaster. The vast variety of characters, voices and attitudes is nothing short of GOAT level genius. His stories also are slick & extremely well put together. In this regard, he is definitely on Chapelle's level - and I think that this special is actually better than everything Dave or literally anyone has ever released.

The last comment clearly is debatable. I'm a white guy from Germany and I'm a "special character" myself. So, I can relate to Bill's atmosphere more than to Dave's. I've liked Carlin more than Prior, but not because the latter would have been any less good.

My point is: This special is technically flawless. Bill is a master of his craft and this is his best show so far - there is no doubt in my mind. I laughed so hard like never before during a comedy show.

So, even if you don't like his persona all too much, he will get you with this one - I swear!

It's another Bill Burr stand-up, so you know what to expect.

Excellent showcase: A man with a mic who takes you on a one-man comedic ride. Shot (or post-processed) monochromatic. And it sometimes reminds me of Kubrick; It's not hard to find a frame where that b/w looks beautiful; good balance and a somewhat "stark" look (low ambient light) that lends Burr an iconic look--particularly when he makes a face... which he does quite a bit in this show.

If you don't like cussing, skip it. Funny thing I've reflected upon wrt to Burr (and Oswalt, and...): Seinfeld often says that cussing in stand-up comedy is a shortcut; by which he means (sort of) cheating; hedging your bets with material short on genuine laughs by appealing to folks' prurience.

Well, Burr, et.al., put the lie to that. If there's anywhere that Burr cheats, it's in his way of morally shooting from the hip. But that doesn't daunt me: Even when I disagree with his moral calculus, I'm sincerely thankful for his shining, genuine humor, which is the stuff that *truly* covers a Multitude of Sins (as we all know, IFF we've kept *our* senses of humor!).

So this cussing hasn't stopped Seinfeld from hosting this ilk on his Cars/Coffee show... and is it a purely marketing decision (keeping "hep" with "the youth")? I think not!

I would be remiss not to point out that Burr has a very finely tuned comic instrument, which complements his comedic sensibility perfectly.

Enjoy!
