Boring and Not Funny March 2, 2009 Kalbawe (San Francisco, CA United States) It took me several tries to get through these DVDs. How could someone so funny be this unfunny... His friends are annoying... there is no real drama...Stay away.
Tourgasm, a painful experience - ZERO stars January 9, 2008 Teresa M. Fasulo (Boston, MA, USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Tourgasm is an example of ego-gone-wild. Dane Cook could only have been blinded by his super-fi-ego to have allowed this past the edit bay. Tourgasm is how I know I would never see Jay Davis or Robert Kelly on Comedy Central, and that is fine with me! Stand-up fans want to see comedians on-stage, not behind the scenes; and we only want to see interviews of established comedians. We certainly don't want to see a bunch of middle-schoolers battle it out with their insecurities. Watching this mistake-of-an-idea was a wrenching experience. I congratulate Gary Gulman, a talented and very hot-looking comedian, for leaving the tour for many days in order to keep away from the supreme negativity of his colleagues, day in and day out. Gary Gulman has depth, and you can see it, and hear it in his comedy. Dane Cook's shining moment was in Viscious Circle - not sure if he can do another thing like that, but let's hope so. Gulman's fan base is all ages due to his depth; Cook appeals mostly to teens and 20-something's. Some of us in our early-40's will enjoy Viscious Circle and that may be it. He seems to keep himself hyped-up and convinced of his awesomeness, surrounding himself with the positiveness of fans who think he's awesome and cute, supposedly never doing drugs/alcohol. Maybe he should go into depth-training and have a drink with some other types of people for a change...and listen to them. I don't doubt for one minute that "he can't make a relationship last past 55 minutes".
Succeeds where it doesn't really matter and fails where it shouldn't August 21, 2007 Chet Fakir (DC) As a reality show staring four young comics traveling across the country, each with distinct personalities, styles and levels of experience this show (I guess you'd call it) is amusing. The interactions between the four are sometimes insightful, sometimes annoying, and often entertaining if not particularily hilarious. As a reality show it's ok and worth watching maybe once. But you know what would have made this show great? If it was funny. The standup routines including Dane Cook's might make you smile once or twice but there's little in the way of side splitting hilarity to be found. In fact there isn't any. No full set is provided either, rather just edited bits and pieces, dribs and drabs. For a reality show it's not bad, for a comedy dvd it's covered in flop sweat.
More Reality Show Stupidity Than Comedy June 24, 2007 L. K. Turner (Asheville, NC) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I am a huge Dane Cook fan, but he's been disappointing me lately. My biggest complaint about this DVD is that it does not include a clip of the full stand-up act. It's mostly about their 'adventures' on tour, providing only sample bits from the show. And the bits are FUNNY! I want more stand-up comedy, less reality show.
A waste May 7, 2007 Brian Duggan (Reno, NV) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I'm also a Dane Cook fan, but not this time around. Tourgasm had potential. And despite that potential - 4 comedians traveling across the country in a tour bus - this reality TV-like concept falls flat on its face. There was no comedy throughout the entire DVD. NOTHING WAS FUNNY! The comedians in it complain more than they make jokes. This DVD was a waste of money and time. Spare yourself.
Dane, if you're out there, stop with this promotional stuff and give us something with more substance. Your bits are hilarious. Your future as a reality TV-star? No so much.
