‘John Early: Now More Than Ever’
From the very minute he presents his band with some “homemade” lemon squares pulled from a package, John Early is in full John Early mode for his HBO special, John Early: Now More Than Ever, and that’s certainly a good thing. The comedian — who previously appeared in Search Party, The Afterparty and I Think You Should Leave — gets to shine all on his own in his absurdly funny new stand-up show. At one point, he serenades the crowd with Britney Spears’ “Overprotected,” while in another bit, he roasts his parents for coming to see him perform. If you were a fan of his woefully under-appreciated series Would It Kill You to Laugh?, Now More Than Ever is not one to miss.
