I prefer to see Kevin in TV and films. However, watching him in standup comedy format is fantastic as well. The comedic stories were entertaining and sounded more like family TV episodes in comedy club format. I guess the other episodes will be in the same format. We'll see. Loved the intro walk-on music. He comes on stage like a boss in smoke but has trouble breathing for the first 10 minutes. I have been a fan of Kevin James for 15 years, enjoying his unique style in shows like King Of Queens, Kevin Can Wait, and his family-oriented Hollywood films. The ending with all the fans and producers is wonderful stuff! His last two movies have similar type endings. Fun, festive and lets all party like regular human beings in life type of vibe.

I think people should expect older comedians might talk about "back in my day" things. We did drink from garden hoses and corporal punishment was a thing. In school too. Some of it is BS. Drinking from a garden hose didn't prevent allergies. If his kid's little league team doesn't keep score, it's T-ball. Little league people are some of the most competitive a-holes I've ever seen. But he stayed away from some of the stuff other comedians can't seem to, like gender related stuff. Anyway, I laughed quite a bit and mostly enjoyed it. I've turned off other specials that went too hard on "how things used to be". Sebastian Maniscalco is a great example.

As a fan of Kevin's for many years I was shocked at how funny this special was. Starting off with a horrible premise about prediabetes and how we're free everything really was not that funny. We all understand the pre-diabetes means borderline and then he kept going on with the premise and then he went on to tell this story about hitting a deer in the same Cadence and story as Kevin Hart did with the raccoon. Felt uninspired, flat, unoriginal, and just not funny. Whole point of Comedy is to make people laugh and he failed in this one. He must be surrounded by tes men, as if he would have appeared review this with any of his other comedian friends they would have told him it was complete garbage. I feel bad for him.
