Dane Cook Improvised A Special At MSG - YMH Highlight

[@nkyryry]

Just to hear other comedians compliment Dane is refreshing.

[@leetledrummerboy]

He's always seemed like a good guy to me. I get why people might not like his comedy but hes a legit comic. Made me sad to see people hating on him just cause he was so successful

[@Brainhorn]

@@leetledrummerboy He tried to ruin a guy's career by saying said guy was sexist and mysoginist for not wanting to review the shitty Ghostbusters reboot. Plus he's a joke thief. Not an especially good guy.

It just depends how big they get as to whether or not you see it.

Don’t get me wrong we still have some great comedians and story tellers today, but at the end of his shows Dane looks like he just ran a 5k

@@turdferguson2961 Joe Rogan is a hypocrite though, he defended Amy Schumer when she was caught stealing jokes. Joe went hard after Mencia, I haven't heard about his beef with Cook but I have no reason not to believe it either. Rogan even said something like "I've never heard someone be called a joke thief if they weren't stealing jokes" but he sure backpedaled and made excuses when Schumer was accused.

[@Vichedges]

@@donkeygat93 What are you even talking about lol? Did you spend a nice quiet weekend alone with Cook or just see him on a podcast like the rest of us? You're the one that said you hated him for ten fucking years lol. I mean....you hated him for ten years......now you don't after seeing him on a podcast? Sorry dude, that's some funny shit and it really does demonstrate how easily people are manipulated. Cook comes across as complete fake and arrogant to me. I obviously don't know him personally, but his comedy sucks. I thought it sucked 10 years ago. I still think it sucks today. He can go on all the podcasts he wants......I'll still think his comedy sucks. 10 years of hate, you see him on a podcast and suddenly you don't hate him lol. Too funny.

@@turdferguson2961 Cook just comes across as totally fake to me. He's very arrogant I remember hearing Marc talk about how Cook accused some comedian of "stealing his essence" on Marc Maron's podcast. It's been a couple of years since I heard that podcast but I believe Marc had the comic on and they were talking about Cook accusing him. It was just bizarre. Again, I obviously don't know the guy but he comes across as arrogant and a control freak in interviews. When so many people in your industry don't like you.....something's up.

[@StonedCabbage]

Never hated the guy, when I was in 8th grade I remember sitting on the couch with my mom and brothers watching vicious circle and thinking how I just witnessed one of the greatest live stand-ups of all time (to me it felt that way, never got to see Carlin or Patrice O'neal live on television). As I grew older and Dane fell off I never relived his old material because it wouldn't have the same effect now as it did then. Happy to see he's still around, hope he makes a return to form or maybe does more podcast. His voice gives me a sense of nostalgia, like hearing a old friend you haven't spoke to in a while.

[@raoulduke2924]

Gonna say it, I remember watching that special when it came out and thinking it was Cook's worst. After that he went from "one of the best" to "just okay" in my book but to hear that a lot of it was improv is pretty cool. The bits do meander and once Dane latches onto something the audience likes you can tell he leans into it.

[@ulrikstovetland]

He was accused of stealing jokes, and he probably did. He has also treated comics badly, by blacklisting them, bumping them on purpose etc

[@Rhapbus1]

My reasoning for not liking his comedy is how over the top and just flat out childish he acts. It seems like he's appealing to the type of audience that finds a loud set of jingly keys entertaining. All the stomping around, running, yelling, i find it very childish. His jokes aren't funny, it's funny because he's yelling and jumping around while he says them.

[@mattgrundy27]

@@Rhapbus1 I get not liking his style of comedy or not finding it funny, but why HATE the guy because of it? In the mid 2000s there was nobody bigger than Dane. I think people just like to hate on the success out of jealousy.

This makes a lot of sense. I saw his rough around the edges show live in Indianapolis. Later, when I watched the dvd of his MSG performance I couldn't help but think the show I witnessed in person was much better. I just found out the show I went to was nearly a year after he recorded at MSG. He did basically the same jokes, but they were more polished by the time he got to Indianapolis and there were more gems thrown in there. Wish I had a full video of it.
