Allison Keene Hollywood Reporter While Tragedy Plus Comedy Equals Time might not be a watershed hour of stand-up -- one that doesn't challenge audiences, break taboos or illuminate ordinary things in a new light -- "Dad" Patton is a decent guy to spend an hour with. Aug 2, 2019 Full Review David Sims AV Club Oswalt is a stand-up comedian at his peak, who can command an audience's total attention even when working with quieter energy or telling longer stories punctuated by fewer jokes. Rated: B+ Aug 2, 2019 Full Review Jason Zinoman New York Times The alt-comedy godfather Patton Oswalt has mellowed since the days when he imagined going back in time before George Lucas made the "Star Wars" prequels and killing him with a shovel. On his new special, he still rants, but sparingly. Aug 2, 2019 Full Review Robert Ham Paste Magazine Don't get me wrong; Oswalt lands plenty of blows in this hour-long set. It's just that the majority of his material doesn't have as much of an impact as it could have. Aug 2, 2019 Full Review Brent Simon Shockya.com "Tragedy Plus Comedy Equals Time" may not be the best introduction to Oswalt for neophytes, but it connects strongly for those familiar with and appreciative of his well-defined sensibility.
