Anthony Jeselnik: Thoughts and Prayers

Funny, but not hilarious.

But those who like, could love it. You gotta have a taste for his style it seems. Everyone will enjoy, but some will find it the best.

Maybe it's a relatively good material, but the pathetic attitude of bad boy of a box office movie is intolerable. I couldn't get past the 15 minute.

I would say the first 40 minutes is an ordinary stand-up comedy, but the last 20 minutes is pretty deep and strong.

Generally, i myself have always had deep doubts about political correctness, seeing it as an ideological forbidden zone more than a sort of understandable social pressure with good intentions. Because I always believe that even our most cherished and most sensitive values need to be challenged from time to time. If not, even if this kind of political correctness is correct indeed, it is as John Stuart Mill said: "Truth, thus held, is but one superstition the more, accidentally clinging to the words which enunciate a truth."

And if even comedians are not allowed to implement the challenge, then who else can?

Nice comedy from Jeselnik here.Dark and edgy humor not for the easily offended. Jeselnik is doing what he is doing very good and his shows are not for the easily offended! If you like this kind of comedy and you want further proof on that, scroll down to the comments (there are only 14 the moment i am posting this) and find the review of a person called "ebonybrooks", notice how much she got offended and then go watch the show ;)

BIG 10/10

Anthony Jeselnik does dark, strange jokes about cancer, dead kids, child molesters, serial killers...and you laugh! Not for everybody, only if you appreciate dark humor and recognize it as just that, and not take it too seriously. Comedy must never be taken too seriously.

I'm possibly going to Hell for liking this, but at least I'll be warm and the heating bill will be non-existant. I should be in amongst weird but funny company, this is receiving good ratings.
