Q.V. Hough Vague Visages 02/18/2022
Bargatze delivers a strong one-hour set in The Greatest Average American, even if he seems more interested in referencing his family and friends than owning the stage with original bits. Go to Full Review

4/5
Whether it's dealing with the stress of life under COVID or marital strife, we laugh at what we recognize. Bargatze's new pandemic special is just what the doctor ordered. Go to Full Review

This hour is full of sharp observations and hilarious insights into regularly life, from what it's like to watch your parents age, to the depressing, lawless land that is a Chuck E. Cheese. Go to Full Review

S D Aug 7 I really enjoyed watching his comedy online so was thrilled he was going to be in our area. However I was Pretty surprised that he only did less than a 45 minute show . 3 other comedians plus the “ host “ from 7:30 -8:30. (suppose to start at 7:00] . Nate came on at 8:40 and show ended at 9:30 . The last 10 minutes he read from his cell phone . He was funny , but ,…that was a lot of Money to spend on a show that was less than an hour. See more Brian P @TheCotu Mar 11 Charming fellow. Humorous but, as others have said, not laugh out loud. I kept wondering if Netflix always adds a laugh track. They have held onto this one for over 4 years. Were they waiting for covid anxiety to taper off? Not a waste of time at all but, meh. See more Oliver L Dec 26 Nate Bargetzee is hilarious. Must watch comedy special See more Daring L 11/19/2023 Funny special you can watch with everyone! Relatable humor that is not misogynistic or blue. After watching the hot dumpster fire that is Matt Rife, this is a comedic palate cleanser. See more 06/24/2021 Deadpan humor at its finest. Also clean, if that matters to you. So hilarious Id recommend to anyone. See more ronald h 04/10/2021 Virtually all comedians (and all artists, for that matter) go through a peak period. I think Bargatze has already been through his. This show is OK, but not laugh out loud like his earlier stuff. He smiles a lot, which ruins the deadpan effect that made him so great to begin with. He is also talking faster than usual, like he had too much caffeine, which undermines the laid back delivery that we expect from him. Those not familiar with him should start with his earlier stuff: Yelled at By a Clown and Full Time Magic--and save this one for later. See more Read all reviews
