One day, a century from now, somebody will be checking out Netflix’s Chris Rock: Selective Outrage special. They’ll be doing it on a streaming service dedicated to serving viewers their entertainment in five- or ten-minute chunks — quick bites, as it were — because that will be the way everybody will be ingesting their entertainment in 2123. That person won’t be watching with any interest in the timeliness of the special. They won’t be watching with any hunger for what Chris Rock had to say about wokeness or Will Smith, because if we’re still talking about cancel culture and Slapgate in 2123, that will make mushroom zombies look like utopia. But anyway, they’re gonna be watching and they’re going to very, very briefly be confused by Rock doing a joke about how Slapgate started when Jada Pinkett Smith got pissed off that Will Smith didn’t get an Oscar nomination for Emancipation.

On Saturday, Netflix is venturing into new and exciting territory: live television. “Selective Outrage,” a Chris Rock comedy special, will premiere on the streamer this weekend, and Netflix is taking a plunge by allowing fans to watch the set live.
Recorded in Baltimore, Maryland’s Hippodrome Theatre, Rock’s set will begin at 7 p.m. Pt/10 p.m. Et. on Saturday and will be live-streamed by Netflix in around 190 countries. “Selective Outrage” will appear like any other title on Netflix’s interface that you can click and watch. Because the special is live, and therefore only available in English, users need to make sure their profile settings have English as their default language in order find it on Netflix.
Users will be able to pause and rewind the special while watching, but (naturally) can’t fast-forward past where Rock currently is in his live set. Audience members who join late...

Did you hear the one about the asshole actor who physically assaulted one of the greatest comedians ever over a mediocre joke? Well, Chris Rock knows the punchline, and he’ll be delivering it on Saturday night during his new Netflix special.
While Will Smith has concluded his “apology tour”, Chris Rock is gearing up for his first special in years, Chris Rock: Selective Outrage, which will premiere on Netflix on Saturday, March 4th. It is part of his Ego Death World Tour, which has incorporated pieces of material about the Oscars slap. The upcoming Netflix special, however, is expected to have Rock at his most vocal.
As an example of how Chris Rock has worked the incident into his set, at a recent show, he told the audience, “The thing people wanna know … did it hurt? Hell yeah it hurt. He played Muhammad Ali! I played Pookie [a reference to his character in 1991’s tt0102526 autoNew Jack...

Netflix has announced the release date of Chris Rock’s upcoming comedy special and its first-ever event to stream live globally.
Selective Outrage, the comedian’s second special for the streamer following 2018’s Tamborine, will stream live March 4 at 7 p.m. Pt/10 p.m. Et. As part of the announcement, Netflix released both a poster and teaser trailer for the first-of-its-kind stand-up event for the platform.
The 30-second teaser, set to Bun B’s “The Best Is Back,” sees Rock sitting in a dressing room, staring into a mirror — and the camera — before a knock can be heard and a voice announces, “Chris, they’re ready for ya.” It then trails the stone-faced Rock as he makes his way through the backstage area and onto the stage, where he’s met with bright lights and a screaming audience.
