Bo Burnham: what.

Bo is one of the funniest and most unique comedians I've ever seen. I've binged almost his entire channel recently and got to see this special that he made free-to-view on YouTube. Some of his sketches here aren't perfect (they are EXTREMELY hit or miss), but he never fails to keep the interest of his audience. The short one hour runtime contains so many songs that are impossible to get unstuck from your head once you hear them, including Sad, We Think We Know You, and Repeat Stuff. Sad is my favorite song by Bo and happens to also be the most family-friendly; definitely give it a listen. We Think We Know You features THE most creative song performance I have ever seen and makes for an absolutely spot-on finale. Bo does the Hitler salute during Repeat Stuff. A few of his jokes hold this back from being a 90 or higher, but don't get me wrong; the good jokes more than outnumber the bad. From God's Perspective is a song that I thought was kind of weird starting out, but then he suddenly brings out the line, "If you want love, then the love has got to come from you." Genius. This pattern of a goofy song turning deep is in a lot of Bo's songs, which is really cool.

This review is more about Burnham in general than specifically this special because I probably won't get a chance to watch any others by him any time soon so I wanted to write all of my assorted thoughts out here.
