In times like these, it has become almost too important for stand-up comedians to be politically correct when it comes to performing in front of a live audience, especially when that might air on one of the biggest streaming platforms in the world.

However, in Dave Attell: Hot Cross Buns, Atell does not hold back, and frankly, that helped deliver some of the best comedy we have seen in a while. Netflix is currently flooded with stand-up specials and it is hard to stand-out, but Attell goes ahead and does exactly that.
