Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

CalebVallencourt My wife and I have a 5-minute rule on comedians. I have turned off Fred Armisan. Jerrod is hilarious, but in a twisted way.

Tin Pham Personally, I found Jerrod Charmichael quite entertaining. I found Jerrod through being a fan of Bo Burnham, who directed '8' and he doesn't have the same 'popping' comedy that many comedians have today due to his slower style but I think many people are underrating his comedy a little too much due to that. I think that many people just aren't used to this sort of 'grey' comedy. A kind of mix of black and white jokes. He doesn't lean on being black as much as many other black comedians have and I think viewers need to consider their bias and expectations going into their viewing due to him being black. He doesn't bring the same energy that other black comedians do and I personally thinks it's quite charming. He, instead of dealing with racial issues as much, challenges the audience to think about and sometimes even oppose the mainstream thoughts, using 'personal' experiences to relate with the audience. The atmosphere of the special is quite conversational and, some would disagree, intelligent.Not something I'd show newcomers to comedy but definitely a must-watch for people who already enjoy comedy or maybe enjoy analyzing comedy. Perhaps not as many 'laugh out loud' moments as some people would like but definitely a consistent smile throughout the whole special. It was charming.

defrjfrujrty I truly held hope that this would be at the least, entertaining, yet it came up short from beginning to end. Some of his comedy shows have some funny lines at least. he's not even a decent actress. his humor is funny to grade-school boys perhaps, but you can't fill a movie script with one-liners and expect a box office smash. I would recommend spending your time elsewhere.

Lance I enjoyed a few bits with this show, but I think the show could be a lot smoother if Jerrod didn't stop and pause, and then restart with a different sentence, in the middle of his dialogue. For example, he would say "I just think that (pause for three seconds)... I just feel that.. it's hard... it's hard to think that.. you know.. I feel.. like I want to try." IMO - this is either a lack of material memorization or a lack of material that is prepared for an hour long segment. I think and hope that his stand-up will improve by eliminating these half sentence stutters. Other than a few issues with his public speaking, I enjoyed his stand-up.
