Bad Thoughts Review

Tom Segura is one of the best stand-ups working today. Known for pushing boundaries with his signature style of twisted observational humor, the funnyman clearly has a dark side. However, Bad Thoughts is like it’s from the dark side of someone who grew up with a Type-A neighborhood pervert who knew the latchkey kid’s spare key was inside the fake rock.

                   

Bad Thoughts isn’t without its funny moments, but unless a two-hour-long d!@k joke and Segura’s hairy pancake @$$ is your idea of Shangri-La, you might want to skip this one.

WOKE REPORT

Progressives Hate Children

• Almost an entire episode is devoted to children saying remarkably horrible things (it’s the whole point of the skit), including curse words. Why protect children when you can exploit them for laughs?

Gheeeeyyyyy

• There’s a lot lot lot of gay humor, but despite it being too much, the show isn’t celebrating or proselytizing it. So, I didn’t mark the Woke-O-Meter down.
