Like any other long time fan of Bill Burr, I was really excited for this new special. Can't say I enjoyed the result, though.

This special has the same dynamics of his podcast. Bill rants about specific subjects, exposing his raw (and hilarious) opinions about politics, the population problem and other subjects that his long time listeners are already used to.

The point is: in the previous specials the jokes were sharp and had zero fat. This one looks like a job still to be finished. Bill went from "funny old man mad at the world" to "crazy uncle Bill went too far in the rabbit hole". It's like he didn't have time to develop the jokes due to his personal life at this very moment.

It's still worth taking a look, though.

I am an enormous fan of Bill Burr. I have seen him twice live and I listen to everyone of his podcasts and some of them are better than this special. By far his worst special to date. Half way through I lost interest. I hope he rebounds with better/new material. Some of it seems to be getting old. The audience didn't really seem into it either. Maybe Nashville wasn't a very good choice to film a special that so many have been waiting for. I am surprised they filmed this, watched it, and thought it would be worth a special. Don't get me wrong, it has a few LOL moments but nothing like his previous specials. Not even close.

I love Bill Burr. His last special, I'm Sorry You Feel That Way, is one of the best I've ever seen. His podcasts are hilarious as are his appearances on podcasts and late night shows, especially Conan. I hate to say this, but this is not as good as the previous one or even as some of his podcasts or appearances. Some bits I've already heard on Conan and elsewhere he appeared, others felt overly long and acted out too much. I'm afraid being married and expecting / having a kid might have reduced his "psychosis" as he admits to trying to being less angry and stuff. It's really difficult to come up with 10 lines of review, so I recommend listening to his podcast for those who haven't until now.
