Lewis Black: Red, White & Screwed

Lewis does it again with his insightful humor and on target perceptions of the world we live in, topics such as government, current government adminstration, religion, evolution, immigration, Katrina, and much more. This DVD is as good as his Black on Broadway DVD. His delivery is second to none. A DVD is the best way to see Lewis. Just getting an audio CD of his act is only half the show - seeing him and his expressions is truly hilarious. He has fine tuned his jokes and delivery and in my opinion.... no other comedian today can match. Beware, he uses expletives liberally and other statements that may shock you, but uses them to make his points so they actually work well in the act. Note: May not want to listen to this in front of young children... but you must see this and buy these as gifts for your friends. I have and they thank me!!

Do not buy this DVD if you are a humorless Republican. Or a Tea Partyer. Or anti-gay. Or a fan of George W. Bush. You won't find this funny. For the rest of us, though, this is Grade-A top-drawer stand-up. Great for a Friday night after a long week at work!!This show is also laced with more than a dollop of profanity, a vivid description of gay sex, and plenty of irreverent humor. Still in? Buy it, you'll love it! Even though some of the political humor is dated now, if the "W" years in the White House nearly drove you to need to attend AA weekly, this is a DVD to be savored, watched several times, and shared with friends.Caveat: The Puritan in me cautions that this DVD shouldn't be shown to anyone under 18, due to loads of TMI. Once he/she can vote, though, this could be an excellent cautionary tale of what happens when voters don't think before voting.

Lewis Black has been one of my favorite comedians for a long time - I have watched many of his DVD's and always enjoyed his segment on the Daily Show.This is political comedy at it's finest. Recorded during the Bush era - it is sad that now 9-10 years later we are still walking down the path that he points out. Always funny, always profane, comedy that makes you think and open your mind a little bit more is well worth watching. The sound and recording of this live show is well done, and for the most part the cutting from camera to camera works well.If you aren't upset by profanity then I highly recommend this for a good laugh.

HBO gives Lewis Black another great comedy special from 2006 but the jokes are still funny overall threw out the show. Some bits went little overboard or crossing the line made me almost choke on what I was drinking. But still an amazing performance and I have to agree with some other reviewers if your easily offended don't watch this comedian, but if you like crude language, laughing at politics and so forth watch this comedian Lewis Black. Plus added material in the bonus section was very funny and great add on.

My father asked me if I could order him a copy of this DVD, and well...its my Dad so of course I did! He received it quickly and in great condition. He first called to let me know that it arrived ahead of schedule and that he and my mother would be watching it that night. The next day he called to let me know just how hilarious it was and that I MUST watch it. I've not followed Lewis Black much but I agreed (again...Dad said so) and I had to admit, it was one of the funniest programs I have seen in years! I do recommend it to any Lewis Black fan, or anyone who has not had the pleasure of seeing him perform. Great Job Lewis!

Lewis Black is one of the most politically minded and intelligent comedians working today: he goes insane to keep us sane. He has a sharp mind that highlights, in extraordinarily humorous ways, the idiocies of our "democratic," two-party system today (or any day). His verges towards complete outraged craziness (or insanity -- you decide) are amazingly spot on and highlight his points, but always in a way that will have you and keep you laughing.I have watched this over a dozen times, and I could watch it again (especially in the age of Trump), and, in fact, I will watch it again ...

Loved it!

Great comedian. Funny skits he does. Good laugh.
