Now, I've been a big fan of Grier's for a long time. His work on Crank Yankers, one of my favorite songs right now (and a Comedy Central original, to boot), is unbeatable. And, his history on In Living Colour, FOX's racy skit comedy show from the early 90s, is unquestionable.
So, what do we get here on The Book of David: The Cult Figure's Manifesto?
Grier's witty, approachable jokes on growing up, his hometown of Detroit, and visiting relatives on Thanksgiving (something we all did last month, no doubt).
And, though there are some sluggish moments here, the majority of this seventy-minute DVD is laugh-out-loud comedy at its best. Grier once again proves to be a shining star, and one of Comedy Central's biggest talents. I'll give this a B+.
