I like Tim Dillon a fair amount, his comedy is very energetic and fairly creative at times. This special did not do justice to his standup as much as it should've. Americans fat, liberals are weird, Covid (which really dates the special) and so on. Granted these bits were still delivered with great energy but the crowd was lackluster, you can tell the editing team had to add in fake laughter. I won't say Tim's a hack but some of his jokes could've used some work. I found the experience more positive as there were moments that were genuinely funny which made my rating a 6 rather than a 4 or 5.

Honestly one of the best shows I have ever watched in my life. It is hard to find a truly dud of an episode considering how well it is written. Rami Malek was born to play this role and it is hard to envision anyone else taking his place. The darker tone of the series elevates the experience and the pacing is just great, even though episodes are 45mins in length on average, it never feels that long. Huge credit goes out to the writer and show runner Sam Esmail who did a wonderful job developing the world of Mr. Robot. If I do have any criticism is that Season 2 did have a plot which was a bit difficult to follow a times but never seemed to fully bog down the story and such. Also I wished that Tyrell Wellick was a bit more utilized in Season 2 but that is just a small gripe I have. I'm glad the show only lasted 4 seasons, short sweet and written super tightly.
