Mildly funny name dropping session.
You Complete Me, Ho was mildly funny at best. It was basically him name dropping a much of celebrities that he knows and saying about two funny things in between. Mediocre at best. Would have appreciated more comedy and less name dropping.
Not bad at all.
He's no Bill Burr or Chappelle, but he's got Ho's!
Fun time, relax critics.
Great story telling, passable stand-up
Though switched this on for the comedy, I didn't feel gripped by the comedy. Ken's jokes were by no means as bad as what other reviews seem to be parroting. However, I will admit that I did soon grow tired with his reliance on cheesy Asian stereotypes and bragging. This shouldn't be too surprising as his previous works have been built more on shock value and vulgarity rather than wit or nuance.
The redeeming part of the act was the autobiographical storytelling of some of the more important and vulnerable parts of his life that led him to his success.
If you are interested in Ken worth a watch for the stories alone. However, I wouldn't clear your evening plans to watch this.

Where's the comedy?
Ken Jeong is a really funny, witty comedy actor, but doing stand-up doesn't seem to be his thing. Most of this set was just the crowd cheering for his achievements, sadly only a little part of the set he actually cracked jokes and did what a stand-up comedian 'is supposed to'. That small part was funny, but not to the point where it makes all the namedropping and countless times of stretching out laughter or clapping alright.
Mediocre at best.

HO - ITS A BASIC NETFLIX STANDUP SPECIAL
Overall I felt that this standup performance was good. I had some laughs and I enjoyed learning more about Ken Jeong who has always been this wild and crazy character in my head. This man has always fascinated me because he was once a doctor and gave it all up to be an actor. He does talk quite a bit about that switch which was extremely funny and interesting to learn about.
To me this special was the most wholesome in the fact that he contantly talked to the audience as if they were important parts to his act and pointed out his wife and director constantly. The show was about Mr. Jeong and how rich and famous he is but it was also about how he got to where he is and how important all of the people in his life are.
It wasn't the funniest standup I've seen but if you're a fan of Ken's and the work he's done in Hollywood then I think you would enjoy this.
I also think you would enjoy this special if you last name is Ho.
