Tom Segura: Sledgehammer (2023 TV Special)
4/10
I wasn't particularly amused...
10 January 2025
Stumbling upon the 2023 stand-up comedy show "Tom Segura: Sledgehammer" whilst perusing the stand-up section on Netflix, I opted to check out the show as I wasn't really familiar with this comedian. I think I've seen one show earlier, but wasn't really all that impressed.

The "Tom Segura: Sledgehammer" show was one that didn't really appeal much to my particular sense of humor. Sure, it was watchable, but Tom Segura didn't really get much laughs out of me with the contents of his show. I had a chuckle or two along the way, and that was about it. Not that I am saying that his material was bad or that the show was bad, not at all, it just wasn't within th scopes of my sense of humor.

Tom Segura does seem to feel naturally at home on stage and in front of a crowd, and he does deliver his material quite nicely.

And having sat through 61 minutes of this, I can honestly say that "Tom Segura: Sledgehammer" is not a stand-up show that will get a repeated viewing from me.

With the show being filmed at a 360 open stage, it can't be helped but the audience getting to have jokes and material delivered whilst looking at the performers back, it just took away some of the in-your-face and face-to-face presentation that I feel a show should have. I certainly would be disappointed to go to a show like that and be looking at the comedians backside.

My rating of "Tom Segura: Sledgehammer" lands on a four out of ten stars.
