A bit of advice for Mr. Cook: Don't talk about your girlfriend in your standup. I know you don't have any problem with the age difference, but your audience does. The second Dane brought up his GF and their age difference during this special I think he lost about 1/2 of them.
Overall, this special was "okay". Dane sounds similar to his previous work but there's a lot of bite missing.
The longest part of this routine was an extended story Dane Cook told about a stalking event he recently supposedly experienced.
The fact that this incident definitely never happened didn't help it one bit. That I'm supposed to believe any celebrity in Hollywood wouldn't instantly call the cops if a stalker showed up at their door is laughable at best. Gotta ground your stories in the realm of believability for me to enjoy it.
The second story was about Dane's GF, and the fact that he quickly dropped it tells me it was going over about as well as it sounded like it was with his audience. (BTW he mentioned he was 49 and she was 23...but failed to mention he was 43 and she was 17 when they met)
Dane has apparently lost a lot of his audience, though. I was surprised no one else had reviewed this special before me, considering it came out over 6 months ago.
Oh well, you got 5 bucks from me at least, Dane. Enjoy your giant house and your teenager girlfriend.
