Almost TOO similar to Burr's standup

I want to enjoy this show because I love Bill Burr. But this really is just the same jokes rehashed. Like, I already heard these jokes. That's why I don't watch the stand-up specials over and over...

It reminds me of the Strangers with Candy movie. The show was hilarious. The movie was just the show scrunched into a movie time slot.

It's the same as Roseanne and Home Improvement, and others I'm sure, shows where comedians used their material.

Did you ever see Jim Jefferies show, "Legit"? Most of the scenes dialog were line for line from his stand-up. While he's hilarious on stage, that ruined his TV series.

I disagree...Bill's standup is actually really funny - none of it translates over to this show unfortunately. Aziz's new show isn't much better

I don't really think it has but legit has to be the worst for that.

I like Bill Burr but I cant get into his standup. I like him in movies, shows, and podcasts. Any interview with Conan O'Brien is hilarious.
