Jim Gaffigan: King Baby
Directed by Troy Miller1h 12m2009
The greatly anticipated follow up to the platinum selling Beyond the Pale. In this Austin performance that capped off the 2008 sold-out stand up tour, Gaffigan does not let the audience catch their breath. This all-new show proves no other comedian working today can romanticize laziness and over-indulgence like Jim Gaffigan.
Our read: Jim Gaffigan: King Baby (2009) reads as a cosy, breathless, grounded comedy entry — gentle in intensity, intimate in scope, tender in temperature, redemptive in outlook.
