This might not be his best hour in terms of joke-writing, per se, but it shows Marlon Wayans at his most intimate and personal... anyone looking to know more about why the Wayans family has at least five comedic legends would do well to watch this hour.

Only rarely will a comedy special make you want to laugh and cry at the same time like this one does.

This was an excellent watch! Marlon gives the audience an intimate look into his family upbringing and battle with grief and depression through a comedic lense. It truly is healing. A must see!

Sometimes we all need to see where the persona behind the celebrity came from. Marlon is very noble to say the least. Made me an even bigger fan.

I love the way this raw intimate therapeutic standup came together. The jokes may come across as uncomfortable but it may make you question how much do you really love your parents as you say you do.

I thought it was wonderful. Sure, some of the jokes fell a little flat, but it didn't matter, because of the realism and the rawness of it. As a person who has lost his own mother, I totally get it. There were plenty of laugh out loud moments, enough to definitely keep your attention. One of the things I love about Marlon Wayans is that he refuses to bow down to cancel culture. He's dirty, disgusting, and hilarious, while at the same time, bearing his soul and saying what's on his mind. Everything that you want in a comedian. Quite frankly, this is one of the best comedy specials I've seen in quite some time....

Definitely raw and raunchy but it comes from a place of love. I just lost my dad 3 months ago and this gave me a chance to laugh with my pain. There's no better medicine then laughter. Thank you
