Jimmy Carr: His Dark Material

There are basically three groups of reviews of this show: people who like Jimmy for his offensive material and therefore think he can do no wrong (and any criticism is invalid). People who find his material beyond-the-pale offensive and hate him. I'm in the third category. I'm a big fan and have watched all of his standup shows many times. His first Netflix special was great, although I had a vague feeling at times that I'd heard some of the material before. His second Netflix special -- the "greatest hits" show -- was by definition disappointing if you already knew his material. So I had great hopes for this show, which I expected to be all new. And although he does hit the mark occasionally, you can kind of guess where he's going all the time. He's still a fantastic performer, but there's definitely less of the sharp wordplay that was a big part of his fame.
