[@ramonaceasar1464]

Hope u travel to Houston.!. Superb stand up . Ur inner circle has to be pleased. Congrats to u & ur wife on the third offspring. U look & act like my ex fiancé same build and all_ only difference he can collect a check for the mentally unstable 😂

[@jessdogg9163]

Just shared it 15 minutes in comedy!!! Making work a good time tonight

[@jasonbankscomedy]

Can’t wait for y’all to see this. Please share it with everyone you know and hit that THANKS

[@veronicaharben8310]

We laughed our asses off!!!

[@keesha9440]

Freakin Hilarious!!!😂😂😂

[@marithomas5896]

I love watching u! Even when your bigger, don't stop with the kid skits. Lol although, I know u gotta move on. Lol. I love your characters

[@PowerOuttaPain]

0mg!😂😂 I can't wait to see you live in Charlotte!

[@amatullah7735]

Watching now!

[@charle7537]

I haven't even watched it yet but let me just say you don't know how much this means to me 😢😢 seriously as a stay at home mom i don't have it to travel to see my favorite comedians. I hate not being able to support them monetarily but posting free specials, even just one, is so special to me because I'm DYING to go to a show. I appreciate this more than these comedians could ever even know 😫 thank you a million times over!

[@lykarabbit3]

Well here's another little gem for you.. Ali Siddiq Domino Effect. You will probably watch it ten times over, it's absolutely BRILLIANT.. and, he's just uploaded part 2,so double the laughs. Hope it brings a smile to you. Life as a mom can be draining at times, so when the kids are tucked up, treat yourself to some you time. You deserve it💚

[@charle7537]

@lykarabbit3 thank you!! I actually watched that the day it came out! Cried like a baby too, just to be laughing hysterically a few minutes later. What a roller coaster ride of a comedy show lol. Ali Siddiq is easily in my top 5 comedians of all time! But I thank you so much for the recommendation anyway, I'm so glad to see him getting the recognition and notoriety that he deserves!

[@hectorvasquez3605]

Good job putting in the effort to be a good parent. Kids have no supervision nor direction these days

[@QueenD91]

An animated show with Derrick and blind adam... yes please.

[@patdaddy0975]

Yes but It would have to be on a streaming service.

[@acejojo7284]

Dad, Derek, Chad and blind Adam animated show

[@eldrickemc4602]

tired of people stealing his shit on the gram

[@carlosotero934]

[@adamgonzalez9013]

KZbin algorithm is treating me right today! Never heard of this comedian before but I cracked up over and over . New fan over here , subscribing now 🎉

Your comment is making me watch this dawg

[@italianterror3329]

[@marcellabass4081]

"You didn't like me before I had a gay son with a blind friend" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I hollered 😂😂😂

[@LyricLockerEntertain]

This was “THE BEST” comedy special that I’ve seen in a very Very VERY loooong time! Thanks Jason!

[@Impossibly-Possible]

lies

[@michaela3891]

You his mom. Gotta be.

[@sikig8009]

This is what you call stand-up. So refreshing to watch actual stand-up again

[@michaela3891]

🤣🤣 so many bots in here

[@user-qx5hc1sm1m]

Man I thought his comedy was TikTok based. Nahh. Dude is 🔥🔥. Never a dull moment! Appreciate you!

[@karterbeeler8677]

this is funnier than a lot of specials I've seen lately. Had me laughing

[@mlbmadmax]

tthis is literally the most predictable stand up ive wver seen

[@unclekyle9903]

Jason stay by the phone. Producers and movie makers are going to start calling. This is a GREAT COMEDY SPECIAL. THANK YOU!!!

[@xXDEUC35Xx]

I love your style because the way you tell your stories are like conversations. Like you're talking with the homies, but you still have structure, a progression. I dunno if anyone else does it like that. People will tell the story, like they're telling the story, but the way you express it is so authentic. It's awesome.

[@michaela3891]

I mean. Yeah. He sounds like any of our friends talking to us. As in- not a professional comedian. 😆

[@dopemanmix.259]

Amen

[@imluckyru2]

Bro it took me a minute I kept scrolling passed this and finally watched.. you are the funniest freshest comedian. I haven't seen this kind of originality in so long .. 🎉

[@michaela3891]

You gotta be joking. Every joke he role has already been told by beginner comics since 1998

[@MrPlaya5150]

Easily the funnest standup I’ve seen. My face hurts from all the laughter

[@christophermack8099]

Hands down the best stand up special I've seen in a while. Only 2:45 mins in and I'm already dying.😂😂😂😂

[@michaela3891]

Gotta watch more standup my dude. This is middle school material

[@cammac2753]

​@@michaela3891it's definitely not, most so called comedians now can barely make the audience laugh

[@enricosmith1831]

Bro your delivery is top 5 all time idc what NOBODY SAYS😂😂😂😭🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@bearanov]

Hilarious. I'll recommend Jason to my friends, and that's the highest compliment I can give.

[@bryanmeiter]

I saw Jason in Toledo and he killed it. Even with the lady that got walked out for disrupting the show. Can’t wait toe see him again.

[@Fourthaboveall]

So glad this special was able to happen. You brought a lot of funny to this world.

[@Scantronacon]

This is gonna be a classic, ive watched this at least 5-6 times and *still* laugh so much. You are a funny man Mr.Banks. Hope to see you live on stage one day✌🏿

[@Iamhoneyb]

I absolutely love how supportive the crowd was from the very beginning!…And then I started watching and understood why 😂😂😂

[@Angel-xh4qc]

Its nice to see you getting the consideration you deserve. In the future, i will tell the youngsters, yeah, i remember Jason Banks way back when he was on Tiktok!

[@marcellabass4081]

Flew to Atlanta to watch this special, totally worth it 😂😂😂

[@anitamoore4034]

Omg hilarious. You need a Netflix special. Loved it. 😂❤😂❤😂❤

[@jogmabeckjustforlaughs2033]

If you get a chance to catch Jason live!! Don’t miss out! He’s off the chain funny! We caught two shows and laughed all night! Love you Jason Banks!! ❤😂❤

[@lesleyteel5606]

This guy surprised me over and over with his comments. I loved it.

[@SHNASTDOG]

1% Mitch Hedberg. 2% shaggy from Scooby doo. 5% Hannibul Burress. 10% GTA. 30% BET. 100% funny. Good shit mayne

[@wont_judge6746]

You know it’s a good show when you almost pee your pants…several times. 😂😂😂

[@michaela3891]

First time seeing comedy, huh?

[@staceyduncanbts486]

I loved everything about this! Clever and funny. So glad I caught it. Your time is now!

[@jenniferhutchings6910]

I love you Jason. You a damn fool. I can’t wait until your series hits the air. It’s coming. Guaranteed ❤

[@MomoBrandt]

Most original set I have heard in a VERY long time! Congrats Jason, I think the comedy game is yours just as soon as you grab it.

[@ximenabaca2842]

I just saw him at the Improve in Deerfield, Florida. He is a down to earth human and super funny. He flows well, and I can't wait to see him grow more in this industry.😊

[@Bishop1615]

Watched - laughed - Holding my side CrYin shit - IN DAT ORDER, then watched with my partner and Did it ALL AGAIN 😂😂😂🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯❗️❗️❗️😅

[@saita301]

This is proof that you really don't have to be funny in order to become a comedian. There are so many people on this Earth there are enough people to find you funny even if you aren't

[@ruthesther216]

I don't I this often and have no “favorite “ but you might be my FAVORITE, the synchronization , writing and production are just BRILLIANTE. Good job and THANK YOU for making me laugh this evening🙏🏾🙏🏾🌹

[@doggydog4910]

Wow....Comedic genius with pure talent. His imaginative and creative jokes are on the next level...Hands down the funniest hour I have ever spent on KZbin!!!

Looking forward to additional content from you, be it more adventures with Derek and friends, more stand-up specials, or the potential animated series. Wishing you nothing but future success, Sir!
