I love Pete Davidson but there's no way to make jokes about your mom like that correctly. The opener put a bad taste in my mouth for the rest of the show.
I've never left a bad review before but it was frankly disgusting.
The rest of it was actually really funny, it was just an incredibly poor choice to talk about someone he's related to the way he did for as long as he did.
After the first few minutes it got a lot better so I didn't want to tank the review too much just to be fair.
It's still a good watch for 55 minutes, a lot better than most of the recent Netflix comedy specials they've been coming out with.

Too far
"One of the best comedy specials!"?
The only person that could have written that has to be Pete David send himself. I keep giving this guy a chance after chance and I am consistently disappointed. He had his moments and I mean brief moments at SNL but he is absolutely terrible as a stand-up. Surprisingly he's better at acting so long as that role is basically exactly who he is in real life but at least it comes across as natural. I don't care about his dating history or anything of this sort but this guy got put on a pedestal and I don't believe he is deserving of one and I think this is my last foray into the world of Pete Davidson.
It is good if you like Pete
I like him so I had a good time :) his goofy delivery is his best comedy asset.
Jokes are getting longer, which works sometimes, but I think his style of comedy is not suited for storyteling mode. Some jokes had been pushed too hard, like the one with the stalker, it felt like a confusing dream. His closing story about the house was very weak to close off on. But somehow this all works for Pete because we like him.
He is just that likeable that comedy doesn't need to be good for a special to be interesting and worth while. Still, he needs to work on his comedy a bit harder, this felt like less effort than the previous one, all seems slacked, put together just to film a Netflix special. I whish he would put his heart in it, like he seemed to do for SMD. I look forward to the next one and wish him the best.
