Comedy specials

[sasha_feather]

I watched some comedy specials while doing "intensive resting."

I enjoyed:
Demetri Martin, "The Overthinker", observational humor and witty charts.
Simon Amstell, "Set Free", queer Jewish identity, personal growth. A couple of weird moments but overall very great and surprisingly emotional.
Hari Kondabolu, "Warn Your Relatives", political, anti-racist.

I did not like/finish:
Greg Davies, "You Magnificent Beast", self-effacing fatphobia.

all on Netflix.

Oh, I haven't seen "Set Free", I'll have to look it out! I recommend Simon Amstell's sitcom, "Grandmother's House", too, if you can find it.

Greg Davies' comedy always makes me sad. It's a shame because he's so enjoyable on Taskmaster.

i think you recced Amstell to me, so thank you for that! Not sure if I'll be able to find his sitcom, but I'll keep an eye out.

Taskmaster usually makes me like all the people on it, which is a nice feat.
