An Evening with P. Oswalt (2007 TV Special)
8/10
Poorly shot but a fantastic set
16 March 2014
Originally included with copies of the Werewolves & Lollipops album and contains footage of a set leading up to the WW&L album taping, including alternate material and alternate versions of Lollipop jokes. Terribly shot but probably his strongest set available on video, although not as polished or well executed as the album version. The jokes include pointed political commentary, personal insights on growing up in a small town and, later, working in the entertainment industry and good old-fashioned dick jokes. It should also be noted that, looking back at this some years later, it's nice watching Patton with some fire in him as there's no question age has dimmed that spark a bit. Definitely a landmark work in the alternative comedy movement. Track this down if you're a fan of alt comedy or just bored of mainstream comics.
