Several years ago, I used to laugh and enjoy Katt Williams' comedy. The last two specials have been particularly unfunny for me. Not a smile crossed my face the entire time. I actually felt like I was talking with and trying to get away from the office gossip/conspiracy theorist! I just wanted to get away! Not funny, and cringe worthy. Blind football should have been sad, but he made fun of it. I get the point of his comments, but if you are going to do it... it HAS to be funny. It really wasn't. Two specials in a row for me, and this is my last attempt to watch Katt. It was that bad. Fond memories of previous years past, but today's Katt is sad and not at all funny. Preachy and just weird subject matter throughout. Was just a weird commentary about "facts" (again) and the "truth" (again). He didn't fall on his stool after every single punchline like last time, so that was an improvement. Let's face it: The entire comedy special was more like an uncomfortable conversation with someone you get the feeling you don't really like and want to get away from the entire time. I just wish I had pressed STOP or maybe even not PLAY at the very start. There came a time that Jerry Lewis was not on my play list... that time is now for Katt.

Not overly funny and often offensive on purpose. One of those comics that intentionally make racist, homophobic, or rape, etc. "jokes" that they think are edgy and provocative. The jokes she feels don't land where the thinks they should have are indicated be her saying... "No" after that joke. She says that a lot, in fact. Not bad comedy; but not great either. Comedy is subjective, so your mileage may vary. For me: this was mostly flat, and derivative (I can see it all coming a mile away). Ho hum attitude without any energy. Works for some, but maybe not for her. I just did not really care for her delivery, and material. Nothing she said was, in reality, offensive to me... it was just that she was trying to be offensive with -dead pan- delivery and not sticking any landings with me. In a nutshell, that is my take on this special and was sub-par for me.
