Daniel Tosh: Completely Serious

I'll start by saying I really like comedy. I have well over 200 comedy CDs and DVDs from Abbott and Costello to Lenny Bruce to Steve Martin to David Cross (oops!) to guys stumping the clubs today.If you listen to a lot of comedy, you get a feeling for who has put in the work to really polish their material, and for who has a unique and compelling voice. Tosh has worked this material to perfection; the timing is spot on, the delivery is expert, and he works the line that has you squirming AND laughing.For me, "Completely Serious" has to be one of the ten best comedy albums ever. OK, it's a DVD, but I ripped the soundtrack and listen to it on my portable music player. Its software tells me I've heard the album 55 times. I've played the video at least a half dozen times.I recommend this to anyone who's willing to laugh at taboo subjects. If you're familiar with Louis C.K., I'd say the "willing to offend" meter deflects similarly for the two, though they are otherwise quite different. If you're at all easily offended, this is not for you. Otherwise, buckle up. You're in for a treat.Since CDs come with track lists but DVDs don't, I'm going to list the first dozen of the 27 "tracks" I got from ripping the DVD. This might give you an idea of whether you'll like this set:1) Intro / The O.C. / How Much Longer Do I Have?2) Swearing in Heaven / Ashton Kutcher is a D*****bag3) Banging Teachers4) Snapple Knowledge5) Seal the Border6) Is Poker a Sport?7) Bring the Troops Home (to War in Nebraska)8) Parade or Fireworks?9) Happiness Through Material Possessions10) I'm Not Honest (But You're Interesting) / Stupid Wh**es and Plastic Surgery11) The Myth of the Hot Female Athlete12) The Polite Version of Tourette's

This may be my favorite comedy album (DVD whatever) of all time. I have watched this over, and over and just laugh my ass off every time I play it. Tosh just has a way of putting forth jokes so quickly and to the point. Its like condensed comedy. Also, he is very blue and pokes fun at all racial stereotypes, etc. But the difference between a racist joke and a non racist joke is this; "is it funny". The answer is an overwhelming, yes.But, if you can't take blue humor or jokes on the edge of civility (well mostly well outside of it) then you should skip it. But if you want funny, Daniel Tosh brings it in abundance. This show is a non-stop onslaught of smart humor. You just have to "get it". Many do, but some will not. Too bad for them because if you want your stomach to hurt from laughing, get this Blu-ray/DVD/MP3 however you do.

If you love clever, ironic comedy, you have GOT to give Daniel Tosh a try. He is really smart and is able to drill down into a joke that same way that a guy like John Stewart or John Oliver or maybe Bill Maher can do - only with a lot of edge.EXAMPLE: "My girlfriend complains that I correct her all the time. I told her "how would you like to be dating someone who's WRONG all the time?"I put Daniel on once a week or so, even for a few minutes, to stoke up the humor level and get a couple of laughs. He's now one of my favorite comics.

Just watched this free on Prime Instant Video and it was GREAT!!!! I have seen his Tosh.O show a couple times, but never thought that much of Tosh as a comedian. After this I am a HUGE fan. Everything he said was true, but offensive, which is ok. I think most people are too PC these days. It reminds me of "It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia", in that they say the things we are thinking, but are "ashamed" to say. I liked how he wasn't afraid to make fun of his crowd, and thought the jokes about the Midwest were hilarious (I live in Missouri). If you like shows like "Louie" or "It's Always Sunny", then you will LOVE this standup special. Give it a try.

I really enjoyed watching this on Comedy Central, so I decided to buy it. Its pretty much the same but uncensored with some extras thrown in.I personally found this 1 hour stand up much funnier and enjoyable than his more recent Happy Thoughts.The extras include Daniel post-show asking people what they liked and disliked and some deleted scenes. It provides a few extra laughs and some insight into Daniel's personality, but nothing truly must-see.The packaging is like a typical dvd but maybe a bit cheaper. The case is pretty thin and flimsy with parts of it cut out to save plastic (from the outside it looks normal).

MY FAVORITE!!! Daniel Tosh is hands down the funniest stand up comedian out there. He is extremely clever, sarcastic, and confident. Definitely one of those people who is meant to be on stage. His jokes are very original, and he doesn't depend on shock value to make people laugh. He shoves you through your sense of right and wrong and has you in hysterics when you would normally be horrified. My husband and I have watched it at least 15 times, and I still laugh so hard that I'm crying each time! Love it!P.S. Definitely not for the sensitive type!

I don't know why I can no longer find this whole routine on any streaming services anymore. Censor much? Get it now before the thought police come for you. Which they will if you buy it, lol.

I HAVE WATCH THIS PROGRAM DEMAND. I DID NOT THINK IT WAS TO BAD, NOT GOOD, BUT NOT THAT BAD. BUT WHEN I BOUGHT THE VIDEO, I WAS SHOCKED AT HOW DISRESPECTFUL HE WAS TOWARDS RELIGION. I DID NOT SEE THIS ON HIS TV PROGRAMS. BUT HIS STAND UP COMEDY IN ANOTHER SUBJECT ALTOGHER. NEEDLESS TO SAY, WE NO LONGER WATCH THIS PROGRAM AT ALL. THE VIDEO WAS THOWN OUT.

This was my first DVD from Daniel Tosh, having seen his TV show, and I find his stand up even funnier. He is a great entertainer for the adults out there. Surely one to watch after the kids are in bed.

Apart from some of the gags that were obviously aimed for an American audience I found the vast bulk of his material extremely funny and deliciously un-PC. Not a hint of an apology, just says it how he sees it. Insightful, witty, hilarious. So glad I bought this and will show it to family and friends who have a sense of humour. Superb!

Seriously, this guy is outrageous. He takes his craft seriously and never disappoints. He is very sharp and his timing is fabulous. Listen carefully.

One of the best stand ups I've ever seen!

Daniel Tosh is, in my opinion, one of the most underrated comics in the business today. "Completely Serious" is typical Tosh, and that is why it's so great. Will not disappoint!
