5.0 out of 5 stars Headed for the Carlin/Hicks/Rock pantheon March 10, 2010

By K. Swanson TOP 500 REVIEWERVINE™ VOICE

Format:DVD

4.8 stars

By far the best stand-up performance I've seen since Chris Rock's perfect Bigger And Blacker, this is one hour of extremely edgy yet somehow good-natured comedy. Tosh spares nothing and no one, least of all America in general. And he does it all so slyly, with that engaging grin and flashing eyes that say, yeah, you know I'm right, admit it.

The material here is twenty minutes longer than what the Comedy Chunnel shows from this dvd. They cut a lot of the best, most over the top bits, so it's a treat to see them here. What really distinguishes Tosh is the intelligence and subtlety of some of his lines. He's skewering all of us, and our selfish society, and does it with so much verve and bonhomie that you hardly notice how deep the cuts go.

I enjoy a comedian who can get straight to the heart of things, and Tosh is a master at that already on his first dvd. He's one of the few stand-ups I've seen in years who clearly has the goods in spades, and seems more interested in commenting on his version of the truth than getting easy laughs. He says things that seem so wrong at first, but one quickly realizes what's really wrong is how right he is about our complacency and prejudices.

His new show on CC, Tosh.0, is decent, but goes for easy laughs and is nowhere near as funny as this dvd and his earlier cd. Let's hope the tv stardom doesn't derail his excellent stand-up, and that he doesn't go the Rock route and release only one performance every five years. Truth is at a premium these days, and this guy is poised to be a prime conduit.

Absolutely recommended to any fan of Carlin, Pryor, Hicks, or Rock.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious and UN-PC!!!! Loved it!!!! January 20, 2012

By Khalid Mundwiller

Format:Amazon Instant Video

Just watched this free on Prime Instant Video and it was GREAT!!!! I have seen his Tosh.O show a couple times, but never thought that much of Tosh as a comedian. After this I am a HUGE fan. Everything he said was true, but offensive, which is ok. I think most people are too PC these days. It reminds me of "It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia", in that they say the things we are thinking, but are "ashamed" to say. I liked how he wasn't afraid to make fun of his crowd, and thought the jokes about the Midwest were hilarious (I live in Missouri). If you like shows like "Louie" or "It's Always Sunny", then you will LOVE this standup special. Give it a try.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Funny January 20, 2012

By dirtylaundry022

Format:Amazon Instant Video

This is so amazing, I did like it better than happy thoughts. Just because you don't find him funny, doesn't mean he isn't, someone you know will find this funny. Would recommend for anyone, unless you can't sit back and just laugh away.

5.0 out of 5 stars D-Tosh at his best! March 2, 2010

By Brandon A. Bare

Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase

As random and sarcastic as he is, this uncensored DVD captures Daniel Tosh at the very top of his game! Filmed two years before the bombastic rise of his hit Comedy Central series, "Tosh.0", he is given a mic, an hour of CC air time, and the green light to speak his thought-out, insane mind. Definitely a must-buy for any fan of comedy, :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Funniest stand up I've seen. December 8, 2010

By Francis Sinatra

Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase

First off, I would have to say that this type of humor isn't for all people. Daniel Tosh can be very crude. But if you like that type of humor, this special will not disappoint. For years, Eddie Murphy's RAW and Eddie Izzard's Dress To Kill were my two very favorite stand up specials. Now I would say Daniel Tosh's Completely Serious takes it's place at number 1. I've watched this special at least 10 times and I always laugh uncontrollably. It just never gets old!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Stand Up May 28, 2012

By W. Caple

Format:DVD

This kid has IT. I've watched his show a handful of times and found it OK. But it's this stand up special that really got me interested in his work. It's obvious that he is a talented comic mind. He brings jokes full circle time and time again and his style is fairly original. Like Dennis Miller, he is apt to go over a lot heads with his subject manner and his educated style. But that's part of the beauty of his show. You can revisit it and still find laughs. Stick with this guy. He has a great future.

4.0 out of 5 stars Even better than Tosh.0 January 25, 2012

By Angela Streiff TOP 50 REVIEWERVINE™ VOICE

Format:Amazon Instant Video

To start, if your easily insulted...or even semi-easily insulted, this one isn't for you. You have to be able to see the humor in just about everything to like Tosh's stand up. His unique in how one joke always flows into the next, yet there's no real story to his lines. He's not up on stage telling about something funny that happened to him on his way to the airport. His lines come off like that sarcastic friend who's always off in his own head thinking about something else entirely than what is currently the topic at hand.

His comedy will offend every kind of group out there, and that's pretty much the point. His jokes are meant to shock and cause you to laugh at all the things you know you're not supposed to. There is nothing in this film appropriate for kids of any age. He swears and talk about things that would make a porn star blush.

What I like about his stand up show over his TV show is this is all his material and there's no videos of anyone doing anything sick on YouTube. I think Tosh is hysterical, but I can't watch Tosh.0 because of the America's Funniest Home Videos rejects clips he shows. Half of them make you want to gag or at least ruin the idea of eating anything for the rest of the day. So if you think Tosh.0 is funny, you're going to love his stand up show.
