Jen Chaney New York Magazine/Vulture Dec 19, 2018
The HBO show makes me think. It's inventive and cerebral, and insists that you ponder the mechanics of comedy, which is a valuable exercise. But it also leaves me asking... "Where's the funny in this?" Go to Full Review
Jason Zinoman New York Times Aug 24, 2018
He hits emotional notes that stand-up rarely does, an impressive feat for a cerebral comic who, by his account, has trouble being vulnerable. Go to Full Review

9/10
A tense and stressful comedy special to watch, though it is definitely a comedy special, and is frequently hilarious. The context does sometimes make you feel insane for laughing out loud, though. Go to Full Review
Sean L. McCarthy Decider Aug 30, 2018
Like most men in stand-up comedy, Michael dwells on his problems finding and nurturing a lasting relationship. But Michael is not most men, nor most comedians. Go to Full Review

Drew Michael argues that the stand-up special can make us think, cry, fume with anger, disagree, and also, hopefully, laugh. Go to Full Review

Dec 5, 2021 Holy shit. That was the best stand up comedy(?) I've ever seen in my life. Mind blown. If stand up keeps going the way of free therapy and laughs humanity will be improved.

Very weird See more Feb 16, 2019 I like the experimental style of this special. See more Sep 7, 2018 Well, I would not call it stand up comedy. It is more of a performance art special. He is engaging and smart. But, honestly, I did not laugh once. Some people may consider it insightful, while others merely pretentious. I have seen this type of performance in theatres; it is not a new revolutionary art form. Personally, I was dissapointed, but perhaps because I expected something funny. See more Read all reviews
