Oh, Hello on Broadway

source: Oh, Hello on Broadway

I tried to watch this, but it simply isnt funny to me. But that shouldnt hold others back from trying to enjoy it. Maybe this play is funny for elderly people? The audience was laughing, so they must have enjoyed it, right? Technical details of this tv movie are mediocre: bad photography, mediocre acting.

I'm not really a Broadway person, but I love John Mulaney and Nick Kroll so I had to check this out. This show is absolutely hilarious. My friend and I were laughing the entire time. They make fun of a lot of tropes in theater which great. Their characters George and Gil are so funny. There are a lot of New York related jokes that probably make the most sense to people who are actually from New York, but I still found it very entertaining.

"Oh, Hello" is the marriage of two incredibly talented comedians into one fantastic act. Apart, both Mulaney and Kroll are funny but their chemistry together is something magical. My only reservation about their project is the fact that some of the humor might not carry over to non-American audiences - I live in the States so it isn't an issue for me, but jokes about NYC might be less funny without context. Regardless, a great show and one of the few great Netflix specials.

So the person who wrote the bad review must be jealous of John and nick bc they are both god of the free world but this movie/play was hilarious. It is was god watches in his free time. John and Nick are two of the funniest comedians of our time and this show is perfectly chaotic. God I love it.

Although I never saw the creation of Gil & George (2005 performing at alt comedy rooms) I feel like I've been on an amazing journey with them. Nick and John's ability to riff off each other is almost effortless. Listening to them on the podcast Comedy Bang Bang (hosted by Hot Saucerman) was my first experience and whenever they dropped by the show, they were funny to a degree of perfection. Gil and George's sketch segment on Kroll Show called Too Much Tuba really made me realize how much I hate tuna, and for that I am eternally grateful. I don't know them and they don't know me, but I was proud of them regardless when Oh Hello turned into a Broadway show. I'm not in theater but performing on Broadway seems like a pretty big deal. I loved when John got a Swedish Fish in his teeth. I love when Nick called the audience poor. I loved Steve Martin. But mostly, I loved when Nick accidentally sang Movin Out by Billy Joel. And a huge shout out to Anna who does their old man makeup. They look old as hell. You nailed it.

If you like John Mulaney's standup, you'll appreciate this show. I loved it!

Found it mildly humorous but think it's too regional specific. I'd imagine if your American, or more specifically from New York, it's probably absolutely hilarious but unfortunately humour that really doesn't cross the pond. A disjointed and bizarre show that I only watched on Netflix because it mentioned Michael J Fox and for that, I only needed to watch the 7min trailer rather than the whole show.

My 2 favorite comedians at the top of their game! I'm not from NY. And not a Broadway fan. But I saw this show live and on Netflix and loved it both times! The humor isn't for everyone I guess, but it was 100% for me.

What the hell... this is so poor and so not funny, maybe if you are a New Yorker you might think it is. I wanted a good laugh and so got this film. It's vaguely and slightly amusing at the start but then just bores. How these two make a living out of this poor form of writing is hard to believe. Don't waste your time unless you somehow like these guys humor, I did not get it at all and regretted watching this movie.
