My Favorite Shapes by Julio Torres

I get droll and dry humor. This ain't it. This is pointless and boring as hell. I worry the aliens will see this and think this is what we think comedy is and then destroy our planet. Don't waste your time on this complete disaster. Julio is a nice guy but I will never waste my time watching this again. If this is the new face of comedy then I'm afraid comedy is dead.

I didn't even watch the full movie--just the trailer--and I can tell you that all of that UPROARIOUS laughter at his lame "jokes" (if you can even call them that) is a laugh track. Beyond lame!

Gave him till 3/4 of the way through. Still without anything eliciting a smile, much less a laugh, turned it off to quit wasting any more time!

Just the fact that this has a rating over 2 has me very concerned for society.

I respect what he is doing, but this special felt extremely one note. That one note was often hysterical, but it also often fell flat. Some people will love it and some will hate it, my opinions were mixed. Either way, I think people should look forward to his future work because he definitely has potential.

I loved this show! Subtle, dry humor. Eccentric and sometimes very touching. Has the qualities of imagination sorely lacking in much of today's in-your-face humor. I felt as if I were being invited into a new and magical world, and I hated to see it end. Obviously, from other reviews here, this is not everyone's cup of tea. But I loved it! If you enjoy thinking of things in a whole new way, welcome aboard!

Gave it about fifteen minutes, but it was awful. Fast forwarded another ten minutes and watched a bit, but it was still awful. Fast forward another ten, and then another ten, and then just shut it off. In the twenty five to thirty minutes I gave this hour long program, I didn't have a single laugh. This was quite probably the worst comedy special I have ever tried to watch. It just wasn't funny in any way.

This is not "subtle humor." It's just not funny. It's the unfunny equivalent of a toddler talking about each toy in his collection. But much less amusing.

I sat through this special- I don't usually leave reviews on this site but I'm trying to save you from watching this disaster. I grew more resentful as time went on. It's not funny. I don't think I laughed at a single "joke". Everything seemed forced yet the audience was in a constant state of laughter. I don't get it. Save yourself and avoid this train wreck.
