I wanted to like this a lot more, I laughed out loud a few times.
The weird voices were really wack and seemed unnecessary though and kept throwing me off.
A seemingly good tempo but then a super weak ending.
Sorry Tommy Buns- Bert's was waaay better.

Funny/Charming/charismatic not the beat tho

Tom is a funny guy. He doesn't have the best jokes. He has some good ones some silly acts and some really good ones. He's charming and comfortable on stage. He's not as intellectual as some top comedians but smart enough to enjoy his material l. Overall good show to watch while having your meal
Offensive for the Sake of Being Offensive

Doesn't disappoint

I love Tom Segura. This new special is so unapologetically funny, as in, hes not PC and he really doesn't care- But thats the beauty of comedy. If you have never seen him before, you could start here or a few specials back...all of them are full of laughs. His comedy is full of life. Hes one with, for me, is up there with my favorites such as Bill Burr or Dave Chappelle.
I love this guy.

This is not for people who are easily offended by jokes. Tommy Buns kills it in this special. I don't want to ruin any of the great bits in this, so just check it out. You're all under quarantine. You literally have nothing better to do.
Expected more

More than a standup

What I enjoyed most was the underlying motivational speech foundation that's polished with just the right amount of satire to ebb and flow absurdities. Do what you want to do, manage your expectations, enjoy the journey. Pretty solid guiding principles, especially when you add in a ton of laughing.
In terms of raw jokes its about average. Tom's popularity is probably more in his setups, delivery and charisma than pure joke telling. The positives have allowed him to dunk a little harder on sensitive areas without falling out of the lime light. He reframes offensively material well and it a way that makes it easier for more people to laugh at it.

I LOVE Tommy Bunz but....

This special was just okay for me dawg. I am a HUGE Segura fan. Seen all his specials, watch YMH every week religiously and even saw him live last year so I'm no hater. I wanted to give this a 10 but the best I could do was a 5. Seemed like he was trying to be offensive for the sake of being offensive. Didn't seem authentic at all. If you want people to be offended you have to seem a little less corny. Anyway, I still love and support ya Tommy Bunz I and will still watch everything you do. I bet you learn from this one and come back and KILL it with the next one. Keep featherin it brotha.
This Guy Is Featherin' It!

Whether you're a whole white baby or if you're a White Tigress, you'll want to get those jeans high and tight to see the Main Mommy Water Champ perform. This special has it all... cool stuff! Slick stuff! Neat stuff! I like that. And Tom finally answers the age-old question: Who is Randy. And I really like that. So get your life and get watching this. And if you don't, I only gots one thing to ask you: What's wrong wit'chu? WHat's wrong with y'all?
It only took 4 strokes

One must just love how Tom loves to offend
kofila26 March 2020
Great special filled with so much laughs.. Tom was drifting through things not clinging to one for too long and it felt more natural to his thinking process and views. I really enjoyed all of his previous specials but this one felt probably the best. Love for offending people has never been so lovable. I really digged his facial expressions and sparkling eyes.. 9/10
Tommy Bunz keeping his set high and tight!

Lazy

As someone who watched Segura's previous specials more than once I was quite disappointed with Ball Hog.
Perhaps because of his frequent podcasts but Ball Hog just seems like it was a result of little effort being put in it.
The jokes are lazy, predictable, and written with the comic's satisfaction in mind. Not the audience's.
While Segura has always been immature and a breath of fresh air from the overly preachy and TED talk-like comedians who are popular nowadays, Ball Hog is more childish than anything. And that type of humour may work for a two minute bit, not a full special.

Very funny cat! Reminds me of me and my friends since of humor. I did notice that he threw up the Baphomet sign in the beginning and the huge yellow light on stage that resembles the illuminati one eye stage...I hope that he did not sell his soul for his fame and money like 93% of them do in the industry.
Extremely funny, not innovative and that's áokay

The majority of the special was absolutely hilarious. There was a few jokes I've heard many times from other comics, but just changed slightly into Tom's specific tone, style, and delivery. A few of the many original jokes in this special of his felt slightly heavy handed, like he was trying too hard. Unlike many of his past specials, that were delivered so naturally. This special felt different. The true saver was the jokes that hit... and hit hard, I mean hard, quite a few times I was nearly myself laughing!
I didn't laugh once

On edge and loved it

Warning: Spoilers
I'm not american, so i don't really know the rivalries between states, i had to Google "cajun", for example. It was wild, no tabu, like he says "modern comedy", very very good.
And "imagine your mum" jokes ahah very funny. Comedy should be like this (but wtf am i? Just another guy giving an opinion in this weird world where everybody can give one).

Definitely could have been better.

The writing was super lazy, straight forward, and predictable. The special was funny at times but not really in a way that was clever or witty. I found some of the jokes he said to be funny but in a crude and abrasive way. He tries to be edgy and offend people with his raunchiness but it gets stale and tiresome quickly. Though I find this type of humor to be enjoyable at times, particularly when I watch his podcast, I was disappointed by this special because I had higher hopes for what this special had to offer. It didn't really seem like he brought his A game this time around and it really shows. If I wasn't a fan and was watching this for the first time I probably would've left a harsher review.
