KlassickVideo 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).
melvin-mckey I My was wonderful seeing clips of the greats and having greats give shout outs to other greats. Dave Chappel was funny as hell.
dnadiyah If you're expecting any stand up, walk on. This is just 1 hour, 21 mins of everyone congratulating each other. It's like a roast, where everyone gushes about how amazing everyone else is. I think there was one joke.
'Amber M Lane 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.
