One of his most serious shows, in which he reflects on himself and humanity, and concludes that there is a lack of compassion, love and self-consciousness. Unlike previous shows, this one does not show the beloved type-casting which gave him lots of credit, but involves more racial jokes and also includes (the introduction) of songs in his program. A more serious view on what could be improved in modern society, but combined with heaps of great jokes on himself, women and less intelligent people. The loss of his parents is an important item in this performance, it serves as a background (figurely and literately), but he combines the serious parts with his typical, funny view on women. A show which involves self reflection, but also sets the viewer to thinking. I like to describe his type of humor as intelligent and thought provoking, but I'm not sure to which degree this is true. *****
