7/10
Better than many
28 February 2020
Take this performance for what it is. Comedians rarely fire on all cylinders (with a few notable exceptions depending on your preferred flavor of comedy). Is this the funniest thing you will ever see? No. But there are laugh out loud moments that are enough to keep you moving past the awkward ones. To be clear, I am neither a fan, nor a hater of Pete Davidson. His rare appearances on SNL have evoked a chuckle occasionally, but rarely more than that. I always found him a bit aloof, but endearing. I was very curious, and somewhat dubious of his ability to handle a stand-up routine. Once I gave it a chance, I was actually surprised. I have seen less engaging comics have longer sets with weaker material. If you can get 15 minutes of really funny material out of a 40 minute set, I say that's pretty good. Consider this an album with a few really good songs and check it out.
