I am writing this review mostly for the people outside U.S.
this show focuses on American tv, and if you are not very used to that kind of stuff I think some jokes wont be very understandable but overall I think you can make a sense of the jokes and I did so too, but the problem might be because of american humor is kind of different than what I am used to, I do really like some american comedy shows but some just make me very confused just like this one, I have started to watch this show because I really like community and I also like Joel as an actor so I wanted to check this out, the show is actually very addicting but I won't say it's very funny, the clips they show are actually very good for comedy purposes but while watching it I am like " ah this is a very funny video I wonder what Joel gonna say about this...." (joel makes the joke) "oh come on you could find way better jokes than this" , but then I tried to find jokes by myself if I could think of a better joke and...yeah, it's hard, I suppose it is diffcult to come up with a joke when the video comes out of nowhere therefore finding a relevant joke is hard, but still I think they can find better jokes or more jokes to make the show more entertaining. I think I watch this show more for Joel McHale than the jokes themselves because he is a good entertainer, I do enjoy his style of comedy even if I don't really like all the jokes, even if you are outside of the United States I would say give it a chance, I think it will grow on you.
Before saying anything about this movie I need to say I did not watch the office, I like British humor, but unfortunately did not have a chance to watch it, and I am not a fan of this kind of humor, but I found this interesting, though I got bored at some parts, some dialogues and situations were quite funny, and I think it is too real at some points I was not able to laugh. so, I think it was interesting to watch. I actually gave a high rating because the situations and dialogues are more deep than most popular movies I have watched on recent years that are promoted as "comedy and drama".
Russel Howard is one of the comedians that genuienly make me laugh. not because I am very dull or I hate comedy, I guess it´s just because I have a very specific kind of humor that makes me laugh. anyway, now about the stand up: it is like his old stand ups, it´s very funny if you ask me, but you can´t find it funny if you didn´t like his previous stand ups, but the difference with this one it also gives Russel Howard hour and his old show good news´ vibes, I guess because he talks more about some current issues, but he has a very optimistic approach on this kind of issues so after watching the stand up I didn´t feel like "uh this world is going downhill" , so it´s not a George Carlin stand up, you can relax and watch it.
