[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. I saw Chris Rock live on the tour that this show became. My overall impression was that it was funny for the first half, but far too long, like he was reaching for material. The audience laughs in the second half sounded polite and forced to the point of being awkward. [b]For example the jokes about Meghan Markle didn’t land very well (like there was almost an imperceptible pause with one of them[/b], while people figured out if it was actually funny).

I am someone who gives a lot of latitude to comics to be offensive and nothing he said offended me (I go to a lot of comedy, I’ve heard way worse), but overall the show was almost worse than offensive: it was boring.

If he had made it half the length and cut out most of the second half, it would have been a lot better. [/quote]

Was this before Spare was published and Kimmel, South Park etc? I think people didnt feel as comfortable poking fun at them before all that. I can see pausing in live company (but not in my house)[/quote]

Yes. It was before all that. [/quote]
