KnotMissPriceless Why so much hype?
ThiefHott Too much of everything
Tymon Sutton The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
Caryl It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
jaalih777 I have been doing stand up for 12 years and I can tell you that watching and listening to this man do what he does is pure art on stage. By the end of this performance you know you've just witnessed something special. How he does this is a mystery to us all. I've seen the other 2 negative reviews and I couldn't disagree more. Obviously these two have never attempted to get on stage and hold an audiences attention with their "witty banter". There is a reason that every comedian or comedienne goes to see him perform and we all still wonder the same thing. How the heck does he do that? He has an uncanny skill to grab an audience and take them on a journey with his words, facial expressions and movements like no other before him and no other after plus he does it sitting down. Maybe to truly appreciate this one would have to be a comedian/comedienne but when I listen to a great band play music I don't critique I do my part and enjoy in their talents. You should do the same. To the critic who said that he doesn't tell jokes, you are so late to the party Bill Cosby does not tell jokes. Bill Cosby paints a picture that you can see. Watch it more than once and you will truly appreciate that every word and action is carefully scripted to keep the audiences attention and involvement. It is in a word, brilliant. I would recommend all viewers to watch this without commercials because you are doing yourself a disservice to view it otherwise. And watch it with other people its impolite to not share laughter.
Jeremy Tomlinson This is Cosby at his best. Those saying this is a departure from his other stuff must not remember his other stuff.Saying people will be offended by this is not knowing his other material. In "Bill Cosby: Himself", he "accuses" both his wife and his parents of abuse, his dad of loving his son more than his daughters, a wife of husband abuse in full view of an airplane full of passengers, pretty much everyone is an alcoholic/drug user, etc.You can't believe Cosby has no respect for his wife of 48 years or his kids, or a lady at the security company.If you want to laugh, watch this show. If you want a tear in your eye, read the shirt he puts on the back of his chair.
danielcpryor This is not the classy or classic Bill Cosby you know and love. Sure he still doesn't use swear words but this is a definite departure for the Coz. I will admit that there are a handful of chuckles in the presentation but overall I found that it came across as mean-spirited in regards to his children and his wife. I don't think that women will find it funny at all and will probably be quite offended.Possible Spoiler Alert: Cosby infers that when you date a woman she is your girl "friend" but that upon getting married she turns into a manipulative bitch that controls everything that goes on in the house. He also implies that his kids are ungrateful spoiled whiners. The whole thing just comes across very mean and disrespectful. I for one prefer his older routines that are classy, funny, and less mean.
heart_in_ohio I have been looking forward to Cosby's return to the stage, ever since Comedy Central began advertising the hell out of it weeks in advance. However, upon viewing, I couldn't help but to feel sad for the ol' legend himself. Unfortunately, most of his jokes were either so incoherent that didn't make sense and couldn't land a genuine laugh, or they simply weren't that funny. As a good friend of mine said "he's telling life stories... amusing anecdotes at best". Of course he elicited the occasional laugh or giggle in me, but the atmosphere throughout the entire thing just felt uncomfortable.In contrast, the audience was often losing it with laughter. It genuinely makes me wonder: Were the laughs cued? Did they simply laugh in respect? Or even pity? I'm really confounded, and unsure of where it went wrong. Bill Cosby is a very funny man, but it seems something was lost in translation. In the end I question comedy central more than anyone, after all, I can't see any other reason to air this with so much publicity other than to exploit him.On a positive note, it was great to see the man back in the spotlight and on the stage! I really appreciate his performance as well as his willingness to perform, because if it failed in every other area, it at least succeeded in satisfying that thirst fans like myself have for some more Cosby.2/10
