I have seen all of his comedy specials, and they are all alot of fun. I am not sure what happened with this one. Jim Gaffigan looks really tired. I guess he had been on a long tour around the world, which must be exciting. I think this show was not a complete show, as it was only 50 minutes.
In the old days, comics like Bob Hope used to do the USO shows and made fun of the local customs. It was funny back then but it was not that funny in modern times.
Some of Gaffigan's remarks about Spain really sounded offensive. Like he said Spain had come to America and taken all the gold, but where was the gold in Spain? JG said he had traveled all over Spain and had not seen any gold, and had not seen anything that was worth buying with gold!! Wow!!
I lived in Spain for a few months as a student, and it is a beautiful country, and has tons of churches and cathedrals with lots of gold decorations and ornaments. Also there is the Palace in El Escorial, which is gigantic and is full of all kinds of treasures, paintings, scultures, etc.
Towards the last 25 minutes of the show JG lets go of the Spain remarks, and focuses on his comedy, and that is a lot better.
