There was a new one tonight? Good thing HBO repeats stuff so much.

I watched the first few minutes, and he was OK. The whole safari thing in Africa was funny.

And then he went downhill from there.

I switched the channel about 15 minutes in.

Much like Letterman, his better days are way behind him.

He's lost his fastball.

His funniest line, IMO, was in the mid-90s, when he was talking about the Presidential election between Dole and Clinton.

So we got a big election coming up. Who's gonna win? Bill or Bob? Bob or Bill? I like Clinton. Know why I like Clinton? Because he's got real problems. He don't got president problems, he got real problems like you and me, like running out of money, his wife's a pain in the ass, all his friends are going to jail. I know Bill Clinton, I *AM* Bill Clinton!

My favorite bit was when he's talking about Martin Luther King.

It was a way to kill an hour or so. I still find him funny. He's not reinventing himself by no means and a lot of his material is re-hashed, but I still get a laugh.

Speaking of laughs, Patton Oswalt is at Lumiere on 22 NOV and I am SO there; dude fucking SLAYS me...
