Netflix has demonstrated a willingness to experiment with unique comedy formats. So why did they fail Chris Rock so miserably? (via The ReidOut Blog)
Some are using Rock’s controversial Netflix show to retroactively defend Will Smith’s slapping him at last year’s Oscars, while others are defending Rock’s routine as an acceptable clapback.
I don’t think Rock, or anyone for that matter, should feel shame for being attacked. I think Smith and other such assailants should feel shame over their lack of self-control, their petulance and any insistence of theirs that the violence was done in the name of something valorous rather than selfish emotion.by the slap as much as he may feel a sense of isolation.
All of this is — or should have been — important context for the producers of the new show to consider when they were putting it together. So, assuming his producers understood this, why, exactly, was this put together like a typical comedy routine?
