He's probably making more money right now than he ever made in his entire career. So I wouldn't say he fell off.

But his jokes are real hit and miss. This last special was a miss. Happens to everybody.

Hannibal was the name of an African general who almost sacked Rome and changed the course of history .

In elementary school, they always kept his poster in the hallway during Black History Month.

Been a Hannibal fan for YEARS...
I've purchased all his cd's and enjoyed them all but his newest shyt on Netflix is NOT FUNNY...

shyt is shocking...
It's like he forgot what made him funny his jokes used to be pretty well thought out but man he really just fell way short with this new shyt.
Me too breh. My friend came over and i fired up netflix. Saw his featured special and looked over at my friend like yo this dude is hilarious he's my favorite comedian out right now.

Played it and my friend was just sitting there with the (-__-) face along with me. I shut that shyt off early like :mjcry: what happened to hanniball

D'Elia's had its moments and Mulaney's was solid, all things considered. Jeselnik's was weak though so I will have to agree that Bill's the best by far.

Agreed. Jeselnik had me laughing a little in the beginning, but his delivery (saying something normal -> changing the meaning to something fukked up) got old fast.

Side note: anybody else think Hannibal should've had a podcast instead of a TV show? I think his comedy works best in that format.

Honestly it was just ok, i did laugh but I was preoccupied also..I do like that show, he's on, Broad City that's on Comedy Central..and why does he have to be a c00n for calling out another black man? Like Cosby wasn't c00nin for the whites trying to speak negative about black folks in front of them :mjpls:

Thought his Netflix special was pretty funny but I never saw any of his standup or heard his podcasts before...Watched the other standup of his on Netflix that was from 2012 and that was like 1 million times funnier so I can see the criticisms. Compared to the other shytty stand up specials to hit Netflix lately outside of Bill Burr, I didn't think Hannibal's was that bad until I saw his older material.

yeah it was pretty light and i enjoy dudes comedy. thing is he doesn't really say anything that makes you think. he doesn't do like chris rock and bill burr and lay down a premise and raise points to come to a conclusion with funny shyt along the way and by the end you're like :ohhh:

his style is jokes or jokes about jokes. if the joke doesn't stick shyt is wack. i don't laugh at every single thing that chris rock says but still either you get some game or some insight into how he thinks. i don't know shyt about hannibal

Outside of Eric Andre show and the little i seen of broad city i never truly checked him out. I thought he'd be completely in his bag post this cosby shyt to maximize his exposure. So you telling me he fell off in his prime? That is:russ:and:why:if true. Waste your 15mins of fame starting witchhunts brehs.:mjpls:

it was good

not very memorable, but still good

baffles me how so many people are in here hating on his comedic talent

probably south nikkas who don't like comedy unless a nikka is on stage jumping around and yelling

Or...





we just don't think dude is funny. :francis:

He's probably making more money right now than he ever made in his entire career. So I wouldn't say he fell off.
