Watch your language! August 11, 2007 12 out of 46 found this review helpful
We were watching this DVD with anther couple and we turned it off before we were half way through. The language in it is atrocious! Why do comedians think they have to use all that bad language to be funny. We could use more comedians like Red Skelton and Bill Cosby! I had Jeff's other DVD on order but canceled immediately after watching what I did of this one. Sorry, but didn't think the language is called for.
Really a very funny comedian / ventriloquist April 27, 2006 9 out of 10 found this review helpful
I've seen Jeff in concert at least 6 or 7 times before, and he's funny everytime. If you've seen him in concert before in the last year or two, about half of what you see on this DVD is new and about half is material you've seen before, but that doesn't matter--stuff this funny can be seen over and over and you'll still laugh. A word of caution to parents, though: Jeff's characters look warm and fuzzy, and to be honest, compared to many contemporary comedians Jeff is really clean, but his stuff is NOT apporpriate for the youngest members of the family. True, there's a bleeped and non-bleeped version on this DVD, and the bleeped version is a definite R, but the non-bleeped version is still PG or PG-13. Just keep that in mind.
By the way, someone mentioned earlier that he couldn't find Jeff's concert information at Ticketmaster. You can see a list of all of his shows at his website, onastick.com
Comedy At It's Best April 14, 2006 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
One of the biggest problems that I had watching this show on Comedy Central was that I laughed so hard I missed half of the jokes so I had to watch it over again! I first saw Jeff Dunham on one of the talk shows years ago and I remembered Jeff's 3 main stars, Walter, Peanut, and Jose Jalepeno (On A Steek). I remember praying that I would get a chance to see this great ventriloquist again and finally my prayer's are answered. After years of getting laughs from vulgarity riddled standups from the likes of Red Foxx, Eddie Murphy, and Andrew Dice Clay, I finally can have a stand up comedy that is hilarious and I can watch with my children. In this standup, Jeff introduces 2 new friends, Bubba J and Sweet Daddy Dee who are as funny as the other 3. Bubba is a bucktoothed,beer belly redneck who is hysterically strereotyped as such, Sweet Daddy Dee is Jeffs new manager who insists he's Jeff's pimp. Though both new characters are hysterical, Walter (the grouchy old man) and Peanut (you would swear he's on speed), and Jose Jalapeno(On A Steek)are still my favorites.One of the greatest strengths of Jeff is his ability to bring forth totally different personalities as if 5 different comedians are voicing for each. Jeff jokes are funny and best of all, done in good taste. All I can say to anyone who's not interested in this video is "Your Loss". These are 6 funny dudes you'll miss out on or is it 1 funny dude with 5 puppets?
I Don't Know Who "Trinie Dalton" Is, but . . . May 30, 2006 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
This "reviewer" did not watch Jeff's performance very carefully. The entire audience was NOT white; yes, it was predominantly so, but the editors of the performance were careful to show several minority attendees in the theater.
Besides, Jeff tackles EVERYONE in this performance: Whites, Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, Southerners, NASCAR fans, the elderly, the stupid, the deaf, the blind, and those with bladders too weak to sit through an entire show. (Walter's ridicule of the guy sneaking out of the auditorium to go to the bathroom is priceless!)
I have shown "Arguing With Myself" to old and young alike, and the result is ALWAYS the same: tears pouring from eyes, sides splitting, and thighs raw from being slapped. You will LOVE this DVD.
Funny but not for kids December 31, 2007 7 out of 11 found this review helpful
After seeing his Insanity tour, I thought this DVD of Jeff Dunham would be a good one for the entire family. Ouch. The language is definitely not kid-friendly although, on second look, it does have a "bleep" version. Still, all the bleeps take away from what would otherwise be a great routine. He's funny. I'm not a prude but he'd definitely be funnier if he'd clean up the language.
