Jim Gaffigan's new Netflix stand-up special takes him out of his comfort zone in a number of ways. Read our review.
For the past couple of decades, comedian Jim Gaffigan has effortlessly helmed the “good, clean fun” subgenre of stand-up comedy. While his contemporaries routinely took clear political stances on the stage, Gaffigan settled for telling the world about how lazy he was. While others excitedly toed the line of controversy, Gaffigan ambled on about his affinity for hot pockets.
But there’s something admittedly different about watching Gaffigan shift focus in this way. In 2016, it became clear that the funny family guy had a bit of an edge to him, when he used his Twitter to unjokingly oppose Donald Trump. And now, that serious, critical edge has permeated the once-clear boundaries of his dad-joke style.
Gaffigan’s comfort in sticking to his light-hearted, inoffensive joke-style when discussing matters like the pandemic is exactly what makesso effective—and so eerie.
