3.0 out of 5 stars Misleading Title, May 3, 2009

By	lunarmonarch (Irwin, PA) - See all my reviews

I purchased Down and Dirty with Jim Norton thinking it was going to be stand-up with Jim Norton. This DVD is hosted by Jim Norton, but is 4 - 30 minute episodes of stand-up by other comedians. Each episode you see less than 5 minutes of Jim telling jokes, so I was pretty disappointed. If you are an avid collector of Jim Norton stuff, I would say buy this DVD. But if you are looking for some true stand-up of Jim Norton I would say buy his other DVD, "Monster Rain" instead.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best DVD I have for a laugh, August 13, 2009

By	C. Ludwig "Techno Geek" (Atlanta, GA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

First of, I am a HUGE fan of Jim Norton; he is to me what comedy should be - not PC, not afraid to insult, raw and truthful.

The selection of comedians he presented on the HBO series opened my eyes to a few I never heard of and made me love more so those I already did.

Andrew Dice Clay was OK, It was a little sad to see him as some of the magic was gone - but he is still Dice and still funny.

Artie Lang was really good, while Bill Bur and Patrice just killed it.

I don't mean to be ugly when I say that this DVD was OK, but not particularly worth remembering.
