Most of the comedians tried too hard to be funny and you could tell how cringe-y it got when not many people laughed. The funniest parts of the show were the clips they showed and Dave Chappelle. I tell you if it wasn't for that, I would not have finished it. The other comedian Adele did alright but aside from that, do not expect to get a huge laugh out of it. If you want to watch just to reminisce about the past, then go for it. However, it will be hard to reminisce when you see how many times someone opens for a clip and tries too hard to get a reaction from the crowd. Anyhow, I "do believe" Dave Chappelle went off script to help get more laughs (which helped) and if you watch it, you will see what I'm talking about. Anyhow, I would not watch it again.

This hurt, and it hurt bad. The show in the 90s was hysterical and they were trying, they were hungry, they were some of the funniest people on HBO. This is, "ego stroking" I believe is what one reviewer called it. It's lame, it's nostalgia without actually trying to be funny again. And that kind of kills memories.

Old men and women having fun by themselves. If you are family you might find this amusing. Or boring. But for the rest of the audience it is plain boring. Old gags. And overall the amusement of dull old men, and women, remembering the good old times when they meant something. Interesting enough, smart guys like Chris Rock just sent a recording to say hi. Here are just the losers.

It's never easy to recreate legendary entertainment of the past, yet the DCJ 25th Anniversary Special left a lot to be desired, and I do mean a lot. Most noticeably absent was the classic, engaged DCJ rowdy audience renowned for encouraging and motivating a comic's act. Rather this production was attended by A-listers and elites who otherwise keep their too-good asses glued to their seats. If you ask me, I found the stale crowd insulting to the loyal fanfare who made it such a successful franchise. Unfortunately, DCJ-25 proved to be more about reminiscing for attendees than the great comedic content we lived for in the 90's. Overall, it was a teleprompter-laden presentation which lacked the LMFAO genius one would expect (given the All-Star talent in attendance).

When I saw the stellar guest list I assumed this was a no fail. Some of the absolute top names in comedy attending. They each took the stage and introduced one another with the odd one liner and heaps of praise I figured they were going to at least introduce some new talents or hand out awards or show us the impact the show had on society or etc... Nope. Just introduction after another and no actual comedy. sad.

It's more of a highlight of those comedians that changed the stand-up game and recognizing the show that out soooo many comics on the scene. You know, "giving people their flowers while they can still smell them". Now, when Dave Chappelle goes on his rant which is CLEARLY off script, IT. IS. PRICELESS!!! He even got Steve Harvey off his PC game.

I My was wonderful seeing clips of the greats and having greats give shout outs to other greats. Dave Chappel was funny as hell.
