Rolling Stand-Up Comedy 2014

New Judah Friedlander netflix special is fantastic, even tho it's p one note (and long!)

i used to like him but idk if i care anymore

I'd never seen any of his standup before tbh, only knew him from American Splendor and 30 Rock

saw him at the village underground earlier this year, i'm interested to see the special to see if any clips from that show made it

he was funny, but his schtick grated over the course of an hour

everything is from January and May at the Comedy Cellar, I think?

and it's all just him riffing with the audience re: geography and politics

watched the latest Seinfeld thing (the wife wanted to). Really odd how lazy it is, just this kind of nostalgic self-hagiography and a bunch of (mostly?) old jokes. I still laughed a couple times cuz he does know how to work his material but it felt like a really strange thing for him to do, like, why bother.

I thought there had been some discussion of it around here, must've been on some other thread tho?
