Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
Christian comics aren't all that different from other comics on Thou Shalt Laugh, a frequently funny, live stage show featuring seven comedians and hosted by Everybody Loves Raymond star Patricia Heaton. Recent father Thor Ramsey discusses the horrors of trying to unwrap a stuffed toy: "I can only imagine someone wrapping this at a state correctional facility. 'If I’m not going anywhere, you’re not going anywhere.'" Ramsey also discusses the most effective marketing of Jesus, in his opinion: "It’s the fish symbol on bumper stickers. The response to that was the Darwin fish with legs. Our response to that is a bigger fish eating their fish." Michael Jr. explains how subliminal communication works with a new woman he's dating, especially when he's sending signals about not having a fancy car: "If Yugo with me to the Fiesta..." He talks, too, about his position on alternative lifestyles: "Someone asked me, 'Are you pro-gay?' No, I'm not pro-gay. I'm not amateur gay either. I didn't even know they have a league." Fortysomething Jeff Allen gets into domestic bliss: "My father told me one thing about marriage: Do you want to be right, or do you want to be happy? I'm a happy, happy, happy man." Teresa Roberts Logan describes her struggle with weight loss: "They tell you to flavor those weight-loss milkshakes with your choice of additives. I added Reese's Peanut Butter Cups." Also on the bill are Gilbert Esquivel, Joby Saad, and Taylor Mason. --Tom Keogh

5.0 out of 5 stars I was at this taping... and it was incredible, October 13, 2006
By J. T. Pesek (Nashville, TN USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If the final product is anything like the live performance then this DVD is set to be a smash hit. Patricia Heaton from "Everybody Loves Raymond" was stellar and in my opinion two comedians named Taylor Mason and Joby Saad stole the show! This project was produced by Hunt Lowry who produced Blue Collar Comedy Tour and the marketing guru Jonathan Bock from Grace Hill Media (daVinci Code, Narnia, Elf and others). This will set a new standard in the world of clean comedy. Kudos!

5.0 out of 5 stars I laughed so hard, I cried, October 31, 2006
I was at the taping of Thou Shalt Laugh when it was filmed in Hollywood. I was unbelievably hilarious. In particular, I liked Michael Jr, Thor Ramsey and Gilbert Esquivel. Amazingly funny. For those people under the impression that Christian comedians can't bring it or that all of their jokes are about the Bible, or Moses or something - we'll are they in for a shock!

Kudos to the folks at Warner Bros who realized that funny doesn't always have to equal vulgar. They figured it out with Blue Collar - that rednecks can be funny - and now they've figured it out with Christians too!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wholesome and hilarious...finally!, November 11, 2006
By P. Bowes (Philadelphia, PA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I haven't laughed this hard since the Blue Collar Comedy Tours (coincidentally, same producer). The Blue Collar tours are definitely for people with open minds, who can tolerate some raw humor! Thou Shalt Laugh is just as funny, but ideal for people who don't wish to be offended while watching comedy. My favorite comedian by a landslide was Joby Saad...I had tears in my eyes watching him! But since these comedians are relating real life stuff - we can relate to some or all of it, and it's easy to laugh!

Enjoy - this is definitely a must watch DVD...funny funny funny!
