Still funny but feels like déjà-vu.

I have to agree with the other reviewers that this feels a bit repetitive. I had high hopes for this show as I like Russell Peters and to be honest I hoped he would try something different, just another subject than the usual different races jokes but he didn't. So it just feels like a déjà-vu. I loved his first show Outsourced from 2006, that was simply his best. The second show I watched from him, Notorious from 2013 was good as well but you already had that feeling his material is kinda the same but it was still good. I don't say Almost Famous didn't get me laughing (those extremely negative scores are ridiculous by the way), but I was just hoping for another approach, just to see if he had it in him. But I still had fun, his interaction with the audience is always good, and so is his improvisation, but like said before it's a bit of a déjà-vu. If you never saw anything from Russell Peters I recommend you watch his first show, that still remains his best.

Boring, Repetitive

I truly enjoyed some of Peters' earlier stand-up shows. He has several jokes that will live on for years to come. But, having said that, this performance left a lot to be desired. I made it about halfway through before I realized I wasn't laughing, just sort of zoning in and out while staring at the TV. It was then that I also realized the audience wasn't really laughing either. There was scattered laughter and chuckles here and there, but I'm thinking, "If I'd paid for a ticket, driven, parked, stood in line and sat in a seat, I'd expect to be rolling on the floor".... NOT just politely chuckling.

The jokes were transparent. I could often guess the punch line. Really, it was a bunch of incoherent stories that set up an opportunity for him to use the accents and impersonations he's know for. I've read other reviews and some people pointed out the "funniest" jokes.... and they weren't all that great. Nowhere near his earlier stuff.

Disappointed! Watch his earlier routines. Don't waste your time.
