Jim Gaffigan is in top form for his 7th comedy special. The 4-time Grammy nominated comedian, doesn’t understand why we aren’t more honest about the reasons we don’t want to attend events, while at the same time embraces lying to kids. From horses and dog birthdays to traveling and museums, Jim continues to impress.

The comedian doesn't sit in a comedy-content silo of phony male bafflement at the world. The audience is subtly invited to judge him, and the laughs come from an earned affability that isn't phony at all.

If that smacks suspiciously of brand solidification after the near career-derailment Jeannie's illness temporarily brought about, Quality Time is at least quality old-school Gaffigan.

Quality Time isn't his best work, but it's still incredible.

The new material might be a little racier than the old hot pocket bits, but it's all within the context of married fatherhood. And that is what really makes this special, like his previous ones, special.

His light-hearted, optimistic and sometimes searing observations strike a nerve, this teddy bear of a man who occasionally uses an interesting insistent whisper, nails it again and again.

There's no reason Gaffigan's legion of fans wouldn't find Quality Time funny.

This is Jim Gaffigan at his finest. Yes, there are a ton of fat jokes, but once the set gets rolling, it turns into surprisingly smart, albeit simple, clean humor. He crafted a special that feels totally him. If Jim Gaffigan was ever your cup of tea, you’ll probably like this one too.
