I have loved Greg's comedy since the first time I heard him do standup on late night shows. I have worn out the Uncool CD and my wife still wears her Uncool T-Shirt. He's a great comedian.

However, on this DVD he seems...off. Off color, off-base, off-kilter...just off. Yeah, he swears on Uncool, but it's in the service of the great and varied stories he tells. On this DVD, he spends almost the whole first half of the DVD dropping the F-bomb and talking about anal and regular sex and related tangents. It had moments that were funny, but it was just too long on essentially the same subject, and the F-bomb ratio seemed to be way higher than on "Uncool" and it seemed really lazy as a result.

I can't recommend this DVD. The second half is much better, but it's just not enough to overcome the tremendously slow first half. It's just not that funny overall. Enjoy Uncool instead.

Greg tackles all the humor he can, from anal sex to his dad's inability to remember the movie he just watched "the one where the hippies get the keychain" "dad, are you talking about The Lord Of The Rings?" "Yes!"

Fyi: guys, this has nothing to do with the relationship books, except it has a similar type of humor. And the same guy.

I love this video. It's amazing how Greg speaks right to me from kids to being a metal guy the kids at a concert would be like "what's *he* doing here?" If you are a fan of Greg's previous work, you won't be disappointed. If you've never seen him, check YouTube for "Adult rock show". Then buy this video.

The DVD is awesome, first of all. Well worth the money. And I pre-ordered this item to receive it the day it came out, and ended up getting it the day before! Awesome service.

We have seen Greg live and on TV many times over the years. He is one of the BEST COMEDIANS ON THE PLANET! His material is unique and always funny. He is not afraid to make fun of himself or to poke fun at the hecklers either. He will draw you in with his story telling skills and leave you in stitches on the floor. A lot of his routine is geared toward the 30-40 something crowd, but there is something there for everyone. You should definitely give him a listen.
