WE RECOMMEND: Ray Romano’s stand-up special is worth watching because it does something completely unexpected

We recommend you watch: Ray Romano: Right Here, Around the Corner

Available on: The comedy special is available on Netflix right now.

What it’s about: 23 years after his last stand-up special, comedian, screenwriter, and Emmy Award-winning actor Ray Romano debuts his first Netflix comedy special, Ray Romano: Right Here, Around the Corner.

Performing two sets on the same night - one at Manhattan’s Comedy Cellar and the second at the Village Underground, literally around the corner - Romano advises on choosing friends, surviving marriage, and knowing the difference between being old and not being young.

What we thought: A fresh and unique approach to these stand-up special shows. Ray went back to his roots and kept it humble. The jokes centre around his life and family and are actually laugh-out-loud funny. He steps away from the flashy big stage and huge crowds and rather brings something that feels authentic and real. You’ll enjoy every minute of it, including the beautiful heart-warming final scene.
