 Mostly a letdown October 29, 2008
Andy (Bryan, TX United States)
I bought this album having seen David Cross in Arrested Development and reading allmusic's glowing review of it. All in all, I was pretty disappointed. I laughed a few times, to be sure, but not nearly enough to justify the 2 hours I spent listening to it. Quite a few of his bits seemed to take way too long to get through, often rehashing some point several times before delivering the punchline, and only some of the times I thought, "it was worth listening to all that for that laugh."
A number of reviews of this album indicate that his stand-up has quite a few fans, many of them quite fervent in their praise, so obviously some people really enjoy his material. I wish I'd read through the reviews on here before buying it, though. If I had, I might have run across one indicating that this is the kind of stuff that most people either love and thrive on, or really just don't dig. Personally, I didn't really dig it.
Quite a few of the reviews on here cover much of the subject matter he rants about, so I won't dwell on that. I would suggest listening to a few snippets of the album before investing in it. You might like it more, or less, than you'd think.
 absolutely hilarious, not for the sensitive, religious folks though July 25, 2008

i've owned this album for quite a while now, and was looking for some other comedy album to purchase, and saw the average "star" rating for this when looking for my new purchase. it was kind of surprising given the usual 4-5 star ratings for almost every cd on here no matter the quality or genre, but when i scrolled through some of the reviews i noticed for whatever reason some folks gave this 1 star. my question to those people are, why did you buy this then? how did these people even stumble across david cross in the first place and have the time to waste to post the review? i saw one person had even reviewed this album with 1 star because they saw a clip of cross' on youtube? now how much sense does that make? just because you believe something doesn't make it true, so take it easy and let the rest of us think for ourselves. to those people i say grow up, expand your horizons, and relax- it's comedy.
as far as the album goes, it is pure hilariousness. david cross is not afraid to say how he feels, what he thinks, and does not care who is offended. if you can't appreciate that, then this album won't be for you. if you like to laugh, and aren't afraid to hear something a little thought-provoking and different from what you may be used to being saturated with, then i couldn't recommend this cd more. i have listened to this album in its entirety countless times, and its still as funny as the first time i heard it. and to give you a little perspective, i usually lean a little more to the right-wing side of things, but am certainly no religious freak. this is what comedy is supposed to be- take it or leave it.

Good stuff. Not as great as "It's Not Funny," but well worth checking out for any fans of David Cross.

I had heard about Mr. Cross and decided to check him out on YouTube before buying his material... 15 seconds into one of the sample videos and, with respect to those who rave for this kind of "comedy", I pray that David Cross will "see the light" before his time comes... I shudder to think of "responsible" parents playing this CD in their homes and cars in the presence of young minds... Great way to bring up kids... is it any wonder society is falling apart?... Let's assume Cross and Carlin and the other "comedians" who use atheist comedy are right in their "comedic" view, then; What does that leave us with? In my humble opinion, it leaves us with absolutely no morals nor values to live by... I don't mean to use this review as a soapbox but the point is that "comedians" like Cross and Carlin are laughing all the way to the bank as droves of comedy concert attendeees and CD purchasers laugh nervously, hoping that these "jokes" convey the "truth" they are searching; for that will disprove "religion" a.k.a. Christianity to be true... Heaven help us! Rock on Cross... hope for your sake that you're right... Me? I have nothing to lose by believing... only much to gain...

Here's a thought . . .
I've read a lot of the reviews for this album(s). And I must say . . . First of all everyone who bought this because they liked him on Just Shoot Me or Scary Movie 2 . . well if you don't like it that is your own fault for not doing your research. Same for those who are religious, republican, or easily offended. Its called "Don't buy things you don't know about".
Now. As for all of you who call the delivery on these albums "amateurish". First of all . . .he's not an amatuer by any means. He's been in "the biz" longer than I've been alive. And clearly, if he did not intend for his listeners to hear every "uh", "uhm", or "whatever", then guess what! They wouldn't be on there! So the "amatuer" argument has no basis.
So here's my review:
Buy this album if you want to open your mind. And that could mean on any topic including religion, politics, human nature, and everything in between.
Maybe also it will open your mind to the very idea of what a comedy album can be.
Like the pre-packaged, heavily edited, and condensed mainstream sort of comedy album? Don't buy this.
Appreciate the intimacy of the conversations you have with your friends over way-too-many drinks at three in the morning? Then this is the album for you.
