Comedy Central Presents (TV Series) Lewis Black: 3 (2002) User Reviews

Fantastic...

I adore Lewis Black. He is one of my favorite comedians. He's sarcastic, angry, vulgar and notices all the stupid situations and people of the world that all of us hate but many of us just skip over.

As many comedians, Black's humor is not for children. But, unlike many of those others, Black's stand-up is smart and the slight vulgarities add to rather that take away from the show.

His facial expressions and actions add even more hilarity to his routine and his transitions and punch-lines are perfect.

Many people may have seen him on "The Daily Shoew with Jon Stewart". If you love him there, you'll love his thirty minute specials.

I suggest you check him out if you love sarcasm.

You can see why he comes first on the DVD for this performance.

This stand-up routine by Lewis Black can be found on the DVD "The Best of Comedy Central Presents: Uncensored". Oddly, however, despite the title and a warning at the beginning of the disc, the show is pretty much PG--with very little offensive material. Black is the headline act on this disc--and when you see how funny he is, you can understand why.

As usual, Lewis Black is angry but very insightful in routine. Some of the things that tick him off here are the Superbowl, horrible music and why it's good to have a spoon handy, Jerry Falwell's dumb comments about 9/11, what's BAD about Christmas as well as how awful he thinks candy corn is (amen!). The bottom line is that Black is very, very funny here--as good as I've ever heard him. Well worth seeing.
