I don't get the 8.0 rating here. I've seen him in several specials already and while he's never great, this show is particularly boring and unfunny. I couldn't stay interested past 25 minutes and ditched it. He has a personality that seems relatable in an everyday man kind of way but his routine just meanders aimlessly and looks like he's trying to walk a fine line and not offend anyone. I don't expect to be roaring with laughter non-stop from any comic and can stay with someone whose humor derives from a long, drawn-out story, especially when the subject is one we can ALL relate to. An example would be Nick Thune, who tells a 25 minute story about his first trip to a legal weed dispensary that results in his dog ingesting a huge pot brownie and leads to an emergency trip to a vet...Or even Kevin Smith (yes, the director) who does some interesting story-telling in a similar style. Nate has done better jobs than this one but here he seems like even HE doesn't think his material is funny. I have a fairly low threshhold of laughter but this performance couldn't even get me to cross the baseline...I'd pass.
