Stream It Or Skip It: ‘Sam Morril: Incorrect’ on Netflix, bad at relationships, good at joke structure (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For his sixth solo stand-up comedy special, Sam Morril immediately refers back to his previous effort, letting us know how he had wanted to open 2024’s Sam Morril: You’ve Changed, if only Prime Video would’ve let him. But as Morril jokes here on Netflix, he’s no stranger to bad relationships. The Gist: Morril’s stand-up career on video has followed a similar arc as that of his “We Might Be Drunk” podcasting partner, Mark Normand. Both made their hourlong debuts presented by Amy Schumer on Comedy

Read excerpt

For his sixth Netflix comedy special (and eighth overall), Jo Koy chose to film in Stockton, Calif., an inland port city in Northern California that served as the first hub for Filipinos coming to America a century ago.

P

Don’t expect him to joke about that in this hour. But do expect him to make good on why he wanted to film at the Lyric Theatre in his hometown of Baltimore. There’s a lot more going on than meets the eye, both in terms of Stavvy, as well as his hourlong special. The Gist: Broken arm aside, it has been a
Stream It Or Skip It: ‘Jared Freid: The Family Plan’ on Netflix, on this Millennial’s anxious attachment to his Boomer parents (opens the original)
Read excerpt
See more of our coverage in your search results. For his second Netflix stand-up special, this comedian known for dispensing dating advice shifts his focus to his relationship with his parents. Does Jared Freid’s experience seem relatable to lots of Millennials with Boomer parents, or just the ones who grew up Jewish in New England? The Gist: Since releasing his debut Netflix special (Jared Freid: 37 and Single) three summers ago, Freid has inched up to 40 but still hasn’t married. He jokes that
Stream It Or Skip It: ‘Stamptown’ On Netflix, a comedy variety showcase unlike anything you’ll ever see on Netflix (opens the original)
Read excerpt
See more of our coverage in your search results. What if you took a three-ring circus, but condensed it to one stage and had all of the humans clowning like wild animals? It might look something like the raucous, ribald, riotously vaudevillian showcase that is Stamptown, which somehow convinced Netflix to book and film their performance during this May’s Netflix Is A Joke festival in Los Angeles and now broadcast it to a global streaming audience. The Gist: The first thing you need to know is th
