Fleming makes Hell an endearing place to visit.

Hell is like watching the victory lap of a comic who has worked hard to find his lane.

Fleming’s playhouse is a bit darker, more adult (with profanity), but surreal and sassy and somehow equally asexual all the same.

Morbidly Beautiful

A progressive, champion of self-expression, Fleming shares tales of anxiety-filled growing pains, insecurities, and self-doubt in the public eye. That sounds a bit heady, but it’s uproariously funny, wildly original, and one Hell of a good time.

Rated: 5/5

At one point, I wondered if all was a joke. If it was a social experiment where they put on a bad show to see how the world reacts. Sort of like when Joaquin Phoenix made a “documentary” about his attempt to be a rapper. [Full review in Spanish]

Chris used to have clever bits and engaging storytelling. It's a shame this special was such a trainwreck. The only thing I can complicate is it's title- hell is exactly where I felt for the hour I watched.

Didn't laugh one time. Had to skim through just to finish it... Very bad and definitely not uproariously funny like someone else said on here. Not even close. This type of comedy....I have no idea what it is, but it sucks. Give me regular standup like Bill Burr any day.
