This had some moments that were really funny, but there were long pauses and stretches where his stuttering delivery and weird looney tunes style noises detracted from it all. It seemed more like a show where he was working on stuff rather than a show where he had it all worked out. Okay for fans, but this isn't a top shelf special by any means.

I like Lewis or liked. Not sure what his message is but didn't seem all that positive for a president that was the most positive for Israel in a long time!

Wonder how funny he will be now.

I never watched any other stand-up comedy from Lewis Black before this one so I couldn't compare Thanks For Risking Your Life with his previous shows, but from reading the reviews I see this wasn't his best show. From what I saw today it was okay but not immediately the thing that makes me laugh from beginning till the end. There are too many gaps and curses to make this stand-up comedy feel fluent and prepared, now it just felt a bit like ranting against the world. Maybe I'll give an older show a try to see if that's any better but this one didn't convince me to be honest.
