Some solid jokes, but mostly lacking.
draftlore28 February 2019
It's a good laugh, I enjoyed it. His stories can be hit or miss and a lot of them missed this time for me. The ones that stuck out to me were decently funny. The old priciple joke and the crowd saying the jokes with him was really entertaining and shows how far he has come in comedy and getting people to admire him.

To the people here hatubg on the oh this happened to me because i'm famous stories. Guess what he is famous, his experiences will be different than ours and it will be because of that, you need to look at it from his perspective and not yours. His stories can be funny if you listen and try to see from his head.Get over yourself, he is not overrated because of it. Though that is your opinion and I woun't say it's wrong. I just think you are looking at it the wrong way.

Very Funny
elijahgcasey23 February 2023
Gabriel Iglesias: One Show Fits All was awesome! I think he's hilarious and it's incredible how he can make fun of people without offending them. This is genius comedy from Fluffy and his stories.

So in this glorious special, Gabe takes on subjects like tours, alcohol, parenthood and encounters with Chris Rock, Vicente Fernandez and Snoop Dogg.

Obviously, nothing is perfect, so I would like to point out that the material should not rely on Fluffy's size and more on his other perks like his voice or his hat. But, overall, it was a hilarious special with just the right runtime. Gabriel "Fluffy" Iglesias, well done.

God clean laughs from such a nice guy
ryanashton29 January 2019
Warning: Spoilers
S was an awesome show. He's such a nice guy - not something you see often these days in stand up comedians. And the bit at the end with the audience finishing his jokes - gave me a case of the feels.

Really great show.

New Fan!
gnc69715 February 2019
I'm familiar with Gabriel Iglesias but I'd never had a chance to see his stand up before but when I saw this on Netflix I couldn't pass it up. And I have to say the comedy was, for the most part, family friendly, except where he talked about getting high with Snoop Dogg in front of his kid 😂😂😂😂. I will definitely look into more of his stand up however, as I enjoyed it greatly, and to the people saying one more did special and you're done with him, save us all the trouble and stop listening now, we're not interested in your complaining. 10/10! Loved it!

Disappointed
Andreas-Tovefalk3 February 2019
I´m big fan of Iglesias, but this one was really a disapointment. Setting up jokes and the loses the thread. Talkning about how famous he is and you know where he is going with every joke. You have heard them before. I hope he will take a break and write new material and go back to what is unique with him. Because I really like him.

Painful
avallyee2 February 2019
This was not at all Fluffy's best performance. It seems Mr. Inglesias is still suffering from his recent health trauma. I think this i another example of how fragile we humans are. A very talented and tormented soul. I'm grateful for the few laughs offered in this special. Perhaps he should take some more time for reflection.

The entire show was pretty much this "I'm so famous I got to ___." + "I'm so thankful for ____." + 20 year old recycled sound effects
anwaaribrahim-348511 February 2019
This one wasn't good at all. He kept setting up jokes but not finishing them. Also spent the last 20ish minutes thanking his friends and family and repeating his most famous jokes. All in all very disappointing. His last special was strike 1 and this one was strike 2. If he doesn't deliver for his next special I'm done with him.

Only reason I gave this 2 stars was because of Dave the bus driver and SnoopDog.

Do not be in denial. This is bad.
Squillian22 January 2020
I am a fan of Gabriel Iglesias. I loved all of his specials, except this one. After viewing this crap with my family, we were all on denial. I didn't want to say anything bad about it, until months later when my father admitted that he hated it. My mother admitted too, so I agreed aswell. There were a couple funny jokes, but they were in these boring stories. Then, Fluffy starts to tell his old jokes, and he lets the audience finish them for him. Well, I think a big part of a good comedian is delivery, and having a crowd just yell out classic punch-lines loses the feel. So, admit that it was bad. It's okay to have a bad special, I still like Fluffy. I will surely watch his next show.

This entire comedy show was nothing more than Fluffy talking about how famous he is.

Please Rest
floresmichael-662792 February 2019
First things first let me preface this by saying I love Gabriel Iglesias, he is a very hard-working man and deserves everything he gets in his life simply because of the smile and joy that he puts on our faces. Now as far as this stand up special goes it feels as if it's a little off base to what he usually does his jokes were somewhat lackadaisical and it seemed as if he was really struggling on stage my heart goes out to this man, we all have a few bad days and hopefully this was one of those but the whole show seemed as if he was scraping the bottom of the barrel trying to find any little thing to hold onto. Now those of you reading this are probably thinking well what do I know I'm not a stand-up comedian and that's fine I never said I was I'm just simply saying I would really enjoy it if he would get some rest focus more on his health and come back with more material as opposed to recycling the stuff that he's done for like the last 20 years. Again lots of love Mr. Iglesias and I will always be a fan of yours thank you for all the years of smiles and laughter but please take some time to rest.

Too much hype, not enough fresh material
rigovega16 February 2019
Fluffy lacks the spark that made him who he is. He seems tired, forced, and not as engaged as he was before. In his early days, I felt more excitement coming from his part. The fact that he uses old material doesn't help either. This is definitely not one of his best.

Does Netflix ruin everything?
lennybuttz31 January 2019
I was really really disappointed with this show. I heard people laughing in the audience but I couldn't figure out why? I thought it was pretty cool that this show as 90 minutes long, most comedians do 45 minutes maybe an hour but Gabriel does 90! It didn't take me long to figure out why he does 90 minutes, because his stories are really boring and long and totally not funny. I sit through all that talking expecting a good punch line and he just starts talking about something else. What? Did I miss something?

This guy used to make me laugh so hard I'd almost fall on the floor in fits of laughter, I smiled a couple of times but he didn't even get a chuckle out of me then I just started to feel sorry for him. It happens to a lot of comedians who have been doing shows for awhile, they lose the funny.

All the sound effects he does are funny when the story is funny otherwise they're really tedious. No wonder Netflix is in trouble they keep producing crap like this.

I did learn something Gabriel has a lazy ass son who's going to be in trouble if his dad doesn't get back on the funny train, because the gravy train doesn't last forever.

Fan from the beginning
normano21 June 2019
My wife and I were big fans of him since Last Comic Standing. Some of his jokes from that show made it onto his earlier specials and he's still reusing them in this one.

As always, he finishes his shows off by redoing the jokes that made him famous. What baffled me was how surprised he looked when the audience started finishing off lines of his jokes as he told them. When we saw him live several years ago the audience was doing the exact same thing. It happens in every show we've seen.

About 75% through this, my wife and I looked at each other. We hadn't laughed at all. I think a lot of jokes were more like drawn out stories. Most of the stories are him patting himself on the back for being so successful.

The localized jokes were a bad call. Sure, if you're just performing in Houston then local familiarity jokes are great. But this Netflix special goes to a much wider audience. Anyways, eye-rolls galore. But as he said, he's got the money already so he doesn't care.

The part about his mom was nice.

His comedy is still quite clean compared to others. It would just be nice to hear fresh material.

Slow moving train
leefranczyk24 October 2022
The beginning drug on like a painful rectal exam. He explains and tries to not offend. The covid part was awful. Comedy is offensive these days but it's what makes things funny. Chose a side and go with it. Otherwise you're a politician.

I really didn't watch the whole wreck but it couldn't have gotten better. His voices are basic. The best part of the show was the set. Kudos to the set folks.

I remember this guy being funny but this was cle a rlt a change that seems to have been affected by the comedians need to please everyone. He doesn't wantto divide people but does so in every joke he makes.

One Show Fits None
shinedowness8 April 2019
Warning: Spoilers
I only laughed a few times in this comedy special, but Gabriel Iglesias is still recovering from his health trauma. There is a lack of energy that I felt from him that I felt in older comedy shows he was in. And there is a lack of originality in some of the things he said. I already saw him be thankful of the people getting him to where he is today by making him famous. However, I do not want to keep hearing him say he is famous and talk about his former glory because it is getting concerning for me. Before the I'm Sorry For What I Said While I Was Hungry comedy special, he was at his prime. But because of his health condition, I am praying he gets better and gets time to heal completely before doing another comedy show. This just felt like a desperate cash grab to me.

Well, one show doesn't really fit all after all...
paul_haakonsen3 March 2021
While I have seen one or two stand up comedy shows performed by Gabriel Iglesias, I wouldn't hardly consider myself a fan of his. And I had the chance to sit down to watch the 2019 Netflix special "Gabriel "Fluffy" Iglesias: One Show Fits All", so of course I did so.

Well, there were some good moments, but there was also a lot of filling that was not so great. I liked the Australian bit the most, and also the part with his mom meeting Mexican Elvis. But the show seemed rather prolonged and with mostly just smiles and smirks throughout the bits and pieces.

The whole end segment of the show was lost on me. Why would you go to drag out old jokes and make the audience participate? That was just simply lost on me. Perhaps because I am not a fan and haven't been following this guys career. I don't know...

Most of the comedy material was sort of adequately delivered, but the comedy style and the material just wasn't my particular type of comedy. Hence, there weren't all that many laughs to be had here for me as the show trotted on.

I am sure that fans out there will definitely enjoy "Gabriel "Fluffy" Iglesias: One Show Fits All", no doubt about it.

My rating of this 2019 Netflix special lands on a mediocre five out of ten stars.

Boring and Over-Rated
j-lacerra31 January 2019
Iglesias is one of the most over-rated and least funny comics working today. After forty minutes of this guy telling pointless and unfunny stories and blowing his own horn, I had to let this terrible show go. If you enjoy a alarmingly obese man babble on about nothing, then this is for you.

Boring
msantaniello-2779516 September 2021
Just another liberal celebrity that doesn't wanna "get political" and then does. I was with 7 woman. 6 of them fell asleep. I stayed awake seeing if it would get better. Much to my disappointment, it didn't. Oh and I'm tired of being preached about covid and masks from celebs. Are they kidding? People go to Vegas and comedy shows to forget about the sad stuff in this world/country not be reminded and lectured at. Save your money, people.

You can feel the fear - Cancel culture ruined another great performance
kicsiszederke19 October 2022
Warning: Spoilers
This special has been divided to two very clear parts: the first one is for Netflix which is apologetic, diplomatic and painfully politically correct (he is even apologising for calling certain ladies "less than models looking" or saying sorry to people liking cats more than dogs). Ugh! You can feel the sweat, smell the fear of cancellation (which he actually talk about very clearly) and we can see the massive effort which went into every line to make this special "Netflix friendly" He says "thank you" for about thousand times which makes the special more like an acceptance speech than a comedy. Lame stories and jokes. Painful to watch.

Then the second part somewhat saves the show from being a complete bore. He first states this is part no longer for Netflix and all of a sudden the old Gabriel is back. The naked joke comes where he even calls some lady a "hoe" (I can already hear the feminists' blood boil) and finally, the first time, the audience smiles. Shame, it only lasts for only one short story. We remember and like him for this small part. I feel like 1,5 hours was a waste of airtime for this.
