Sebastian's comedy got me through chemo when I had breast cancer. I survived thank God, and this man got me through it. Days when I was in misery, he was on my nightstand on my Kindle.

i came across his performances here on KZfaq, and was blown away. KZfaq is what turn me onto many great comedians most of which i never seen before, and sometime would recognize their faces from other shows but only via KZfaq was able to really learn more about them And if you think about it. most of the major comedian of today really got their boost from them having videos on KZfaq. Seeing first hand just how great they are and being all the more willing to go check them out at live performances. Sebastian is of my generation the now 40year olds, who knows enough about the older generation and decades to appeal to the older crowds, as well as be up to speed with most of the younger generations to keep them interested as well , Plus, he reinforces OLD SCHOOL principles of those taught by our parents and unfortunately most of which no longer in practice today. In other words, he can relate to the crowd far better than most. Reminding us of how things 'should be' and where we've dropped the ball. 'company' is a perfect example. He's just a tat younger than the Seinfeld generation but fits into to it, perfectly because he grew up in it. If network shows were what they use to be, he would be quickly picked up for a sitcom.

Victor Da Silva Comedians can’t be funny without offending someone because life is funny and someone always has to find a way to make it offensive. He doesn’t intend it to hurt, but oh well, people easily offended don’t have a sense of humor anyway...

All comedy throughout the ages has been offensive to somebody we laugh at others misfortune because we know that could have happened to us but didn't. Look at the old slapstick from the silent movies and cartoons somebody is always falling down or getting hit on the head. Somebody whose father died when a piano fell from the window of a skyscraper would probably find Bugs Bunny offensive

@sonjar1853 Жыл бұрын

He is not imitating a New York accent. His genius lies in his ability to capture the essence of what he observes. He is an artist painting you a picture of the world he lives in. He is able to distill these observations so that they resonate. People relate to these truths. To sell out Madison Square Garden night after night is no small feat.
