Louie Anderson: Big Baby Boomer



Very PG, but very funny
I admit I tend to prefer humor that leans a bit more toward the edgy and crude, as long as there's some substance or nugget of truth underneath it all. But there's still something about Louie Anderson's good old-fashioned "safe" approach that I really enjoy, and I found myself laughing outloud several times during his latest stand-up offering, probably because it's relatable to so many of us on some level. The way he muses about getting older, coming from a large family, and - most of all - battling weight issues, is like chatting with an old friend. I won't spoil any of his material for you here, but his brief story about the homeless guy was a highlight, and the "meat tooth" bit was hilarious. Barely breaking 45 minutes it runs a little on the short side, but is definitely worth watching if you get the chance.

Hysterical
It was actually a gift for someone. I had seen it on tv and it was hysterical. Haven't laughed that hard out loud in a long time.

Louie still rocks!!
Totally hilarious. I am a baby boomer and could laugh at his observations of truisms that I am experiencing as I, too, grow older. He has always been one of my favorite comedians and it's good to have another DVD to play when I want to laugh. I highly recommend this to everyone whether you are a baby boomer or not!!!
