Leo S I saw a clip of this on youtube, and decided to give it a watch. It was pretty good! He's got great timing, great punchlines, and insightful social commentary on being Asian in America. No real political agenda in any direction, just funny jokes. And aside from swearing, pretty clean as well. I don't remember any sex jokes, so a good standup show to watch with at least older kids.

Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review David C Let's be honest. When you saw this on Netflix, you said to yourself, "How long will it take for Jimmy to crack an Asian joke?" One minute and three seconds. 1:03. Let that sink in. Okay. Cant blame the guy for falling back on an easy crutch. Let's see his delivery. Every joke felt very familiar to me. Nostalgic even. Like I may have heard all of this before. Like maybe Dave Chappelle or Chris Rock waaaay back in the DefJam days. The set ups and punchlines felt like they removed one stereotype for another and just left the framework of the generic race joke in place. While laughing at these newfound connections, I also noticed the way Jimmy walked around the stage and engaged with the crowd. Like how it seems that he shadows Chappelle too on his mannerisms. I mean I'm sure he means well and it's flattery from one perspective, but to a marketable audience, it comes off recycled and boxed in a poor package at best.
