Jim Gaffigan never disappoints.

If you didn't like Jim Gaffigan before you shouldn't watch this show either as it's exactly what to expect from him. I loved every show of him, he remains one of my favorite stand-up comedians. It's never foul language and that's something different than from other stand-up comedians, but it's always funny. His views on certain things of life are just hilariousy, only he could come up with that kind of observational silly humor. His success comes from the way he's telling stories, with that funny voice he makes, almost directly communicating with the audience without them answering. Jim Gaffigan never disappoints, his shows are a guarantee for a good time.

A fast paced comedy special that is worth the watch

I love Jim Gaffigan, but I don't tend to watch a lot of stand up. I find it gets boring depending on the comedian.

Not so with this special. I did find Jim was rattling off the jokes pretty quick at times but he does a good job of merging one topic into another.

I didn't laugh so hard I peed my pants but I never stopped chuckling throughout. Highly entertaining especially if you are like me and haven't watch stand up in awhile.

Bill Gaffigan's fourth stand-up special is pretty much what you've grown to love and expect

Bill Gaffigan's humor is generally very clean and centers a LOT on his love of food...and this is pretty much a summary of what you'll get here with "Obsessed". The only major difference is that he seems to talk even MORE about food than usual. Not only the things he adores, such as donuts and Kobe beef but the thing he doesn't like nor understands...shellfish and kale. Additional topics he covers are Gluttony, why Whole Foods is a racket, drinking in bars, a guy shopping at Victoria's Secret, his five kids, cancer and why Mt. Rushmore sucks. All of it is told in his usual manner and if you like Gaffigan, you'll like this. Funny, observant and family- friendly-ish...this one is worth seeing even if you don't like Gaffigan's current TV show (which is amazingly uneven). If you wanna see it, it's available now streaming through Netflix.
