Standup Suffers from the same thing all contemporary media does

The sheer amount of standup specials, YouTube/IG/TikTok stars, etc. oversaturate our brains, and I think it dilutes our experience. This is surely true of music for me lately - I need breaks from new things pretty often. I think another symptom of it being so abundant is the more you've seen, the harder it is to be surprised by new styles and personalities. I've been a life-long standup fan for as long as I can remember, and gimmicks and fads have always been a thing. But still, every year, something new grabs my attention. It just takes some digging to find the people that tell the kind of stories that make you laugh. Here are some ones I really liked recently: Kyle Kinane - Dirt Nap Jacqueline Novak - Get On Your Knees Sheng Wang - Sweet & Juicy Brian Simpson - Live From The Mothership Chris Fleming - Hell (As mentioned in other responses, just the best kind of weird) Taylor Tomlinson - Look At You Nate Bargatze (any of his many on Netflix)

20th century women (dir. mike mills), only lovers left alive (dir. jim jarmusch), ginger snaps (dir. john fawcett), little women (dir. greta gerwig)

ok so this isn’t the most diverse list in terms of time period or filmmaker, but i’ve rewatched all of these at least 3 times (20th century women, 10+ times) and i think the four of them together say something about who i am as a person. all 4 are really good movies!!
