Bobby Collins – Telling it Like it is (Uproar)

At first, Bobby Collins comes off as vulgar and crass. Not that I’m opposed to vulgarity. I’m a huge fan of Bill Hicks’ eloquent vulgarity and Doug Stanhope’s satirical knife of words. But Collins just comes off brash up front. And the impression remains. But his sense of humor – he’s genuinely funny and has a charismatic personality that gets you on his side – snaps you right up about a nanosecond after you settle on his only apparent off-puttingness. In the end, he’s likeable. And terribly funny. He puts his New York mien to good work; he’s definitely a true New Yorker and it colors his humor. It’s part of his distinction and appeal. I was cracking up throughout. And when you’re done laughing, there’s bonus interview material. Plus, please take notice of the insert that comes with the DVD inviting donations for a non-profit, nobody paid and nobody pays Zeno Mountain Farm, which reaches out to connect those with and without disabilities.
