If you own The Pimp Chronicles Part 1 then you should avoid this. This had about 98% the exact same material performed in front of a different audience and in full screen. So I found it to be a waste of money. It's one thing for comedians to repeat a joke or two as a filler an to repeat the same material for new audience, but to release it twice? What a way to screw us out our money! So if you own The Pimp Chronicles Part 1, then this would be a waste of money, if you ask me. Either release, the comedy is hilarious and worthy of 5 stars but this specific DVD only gets 2 because it's the same. It's a waste of money if you have The Pimp Chronicles Part 1. But if don't have either, go with this one, as there are a couple extra and extended jokes.

I have both the live and pimp chronicles, which he tells some of the same jokes. however he tells alot that are different and its worth getting both of them. Everyone whom i invited over took turns roling around on my carpet. i loved especially the joke he told about the crazy baby mamma, and how not to let the kids stress you out. on that note we all reminised on our own childhoods which made it all personal. It was definitely different from other comedic approaches and I love this dvd.

"In a triumphant return to his hometown of Cincinnati, Ohio, Williams brings the funny to a town that, at the time, was no laughing matter.
KWL starts out with a brief montage detailing the police-inflicted violence that plagued the city of Cincinnati when the concert was taped and a a radio interview with Williams that perfectly sets up the show. Whether he's talking about spinner hubcaps that have to be spun manually, how the belief that eating your vegetables and drinking milk will help you grown tall is. . . ., or how he's molding his son to make pimp decisions at an early age, Katt takes the crowd's mind off of the city's tensions and has them rolling in the aisles. . ."Omar Mazariego XXL Magazine Sept 2006

This DVD is almost the exact same routine that Katt did on his HBO special Pimp Chronicles, Part I. The biggest difference is the overall production quality of this show. The film is dark and is filmed at awkward distances that often make it difficult to even see him or get close-ups of his facial expressions, which are a big part of his comedy. The jokes are almost identical to the ones he did on his HBO special. I would recommend buying the HBO special for your collection and filing this one on your "don't buy" list.

Unfortunately, I saw Katt's Pimp Chronicles on HBO first and fell in love with this comedian. The sharpest I've seen in a long time. So when I saw his Live, I was a bit disappointed because I was looking for it to be in the same vain. The comedy itself was unpolished as well as the style of the video. I am still a HUGE fan of his and will follow his career until the end. I'm giving this DVD a B- and Pimp Chronicles an A++.

I have really enjoyed this dvd it is full of laughter, I love Katt Williams.

I really enjoyed this DVD. It was all I expected and more. I was happy to receive and now happy to reiew it. It was great and I look forward to seeing more of Katt Williams. He is a true entertainer. I have watched it several times and still laugh like it was the first time.

First time I really paid attention to him was about 2 weeks ago when Comedy Central was airing this Live set. I came in on the middle and stayed since they keep showing encore information while watching. Man, I laughed soooooooooo hard I choked several times. I think my only disappointment was that his baseball cap was too low in his face and therefore you miss the very necessary facial expressions seen during his delivery. The camera operator did do just by trying to get some close-ups, but when this man is moving, he IS moving. He's all over the stage - literally. This is the second best of the DVD's containing added an Hometown racially charged moment that was taking place at the time of his arrival, his Proclamation from the city and his parents are featured too. With that bit of personal side added, you see he's not JUST a comedian but a force surely to be reckoned with. Not quite as funny as Pimp Chronicles Part 1 but not far from it either. I hope his (newer) material gets better and his hunger gets stronger. "Where Funny Makes Money"!!

Katt Williams is one of the funniest cats in comedy right now. He has his own original presentations, he's just himself and that is a mess. He talks about everything you can think of and its real life stuff, stuff people experience or think of everyday and he make you laugh at the junk. This comedy is hilarious, I had all my battle buddies laughing at this junk.

I love Katt Williams, but I was a little dissapointed that 75% of this material is the same as in his other DVD. And I don't care for the amature camera shooting as well. I had to give it 3 stars because of KATT, but if u own the other DVD, pass on this one.
