Jackie Mason The World According to Me (1988)

[@maryanncimmino1152]

I first saw this show in 1988 and couldn't stop laughing. Now it's 2022 and to me it's the funniest show I've ever seen. The man was absolutely brilliant. His jokes and his comedic timing will never be matched. Thank you so much for sharing this. It's timeless.

[@denalei528]

You were a part of me and my family's deepest sense of joy You are special..God is well pleased. You gave joy to millions! Thank you

[@iainnicholson1875]

I was fortunate to see him twice in London in the early 90's - and met with him at the stage door afterwards. In today's strait-jacketed world I recognize I'll not see anything this funny live on a stage again. Shame. RIP Jackie - and thanks for the autograph.

A brilliant comedian has died. You will be missed, sir.

[@tommyharris5817]

I'm disappointed because he wasn't as funny as I hoped.

[@AllThroughALife]

@@tommyharris5817 - I'm sorry you don't think he's as funny as you hoped. One of the great things about comedy is that it can affect you at different times and in different ways. Sometimes things are funny when you're younger, others you have to age into. And they may not be laugh out loud funny, but rather just something you understand and find amusement in because you experienced something similar. Hopefully his humor works that way for you later.

[@tommyharris5817]

@@AllThroughALife I just find him mildly amusing at best, absolutely not laugh-out-loud. He was overrated, especially as there were other much funnier stand-ups.

[@ysthafellgynghori8423]

@@tommyharris5817 Yep. Donald Trump and Boris Johnson are much funnier.

[@tommyharris5817]

@@ysthafellgynghori8423 They're not stand-up comedians so not a fair comparison. This guy to be honest was boring and anyone who thinks he's hilarious needs to get a life.

[@scottnownow]

An extremely funny man. Been laughing at his jokes for decades, since I saw him in this show with my parents. I was crying with laughter. A couple of years later saw him in a subsequent show on Broadway. We were outside the theater before the show and up walks Jackie Mason, who smiled and said, “Good evening.”
