Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Dave Attell is funnier and more outlandish than ever in his first solo HBO, special, a 60-minute concert performed in front of a live audience at The Lincoln Theater, the venerable Washington DC venue. Attell's sarcastic wit and quick-fire delivery prove why he has earned the reputation as a "comic's comic" and was dubbed one of the"25 Funniest People in America" by Entertainment Weekly. His decidedly adult brand of comedy covers everything including alcohol consumption, dating current events and celebrities, and everything else on his mind.

5.0 out of 5 stars Master Comedian at Work, December 20, 2007
If you're already a fan of Dave Attell, I don't have to tell you how funny he is. He's a master technician of stand-up comedy and this is a must buy for any Dave Attell fan.

After seeing his half-hour special on Comedy Central, I was hooked. However, there weren't many live performances caught on tape. The performances that were available were so censored and rushed a lot of the jokes lost their impact.

Then came his CD release, "Skanks for the Memories..." which is probably the best Dave Attell set, period.

He also has a DVD available on his website called "Hey, You're Mouth's Not Pregnant!" which is a live club performance in the South. It's a good club performance with mostly new material and some cool DVD extras. The production is obviously self-produced, but it's still a solid and funny set.

I've seen Dave three times in the past two years. This latest release, "Captain Miserable," is comprised of about 85% new material. It's just amazing to watch this man work. He bounces from topic to topic; from drugs to anal sex to pedophilia. The jokes are constructed so perfectly and his delivery is unequalled.

There's a reason why other stand-up comics will end their sets early just to catch Dave do a midnight set at Caroline's. In short, he's the comedian's comedian. He was born to do stand-up comedy and this special really highlights exactly how honed his craft has become.

if you are a fan of comedians, then you know who Dave Attell is. He's one of the best in the country. I enjoyed this, his latest, DVD production.

must-buy Dave material: "Insomniac volumes 1 & 2"

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT SET FROM THIS HILARIOUS COMEDIAN!, June 20, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Dave Attell is one of the best comedians around and this set is very funny. I've been a fan of Dave's since his Insomniac show and his first stand-up on Comedy Central. This is adult humor and some may be put off by Dave's brand of humor......I think he's hilarious! Grab some beer and some friends and get ready to laugh your A$$ off! The DVD looks and sounds great and it has some very funny, but short extra material. I would have loved to have the Comedy Central stand-up on here as a bonus, but two different companies so, I guess not.

Dave Attell is very funny!!! I laughed the whole time I watched "Captain Miserable." Some of his humour is a bit raw, so if you are offended by "dirty jokes", this won't be for... Read more
