The opinions expressed are our own and may change as we see comics grow and develop. We generally review headliners and features. Occasionally we mention hot talent that's on the way up. We will go anywhere the budget allows but mostly we review Dallas and Los Angeles clubs. Sorry, we generally don't do birthday parties. If you want a review, save us a table in the back, and a few cokes... If we have an opening in our schedule, we'll be there for an honest opinion. Just remember, if it's a bad night, a bad set, we'll probably wait for a better experience... You can contact us in Dallas/Ft Worth at 972-490-5167... in LA, call 214-455-3742. So how does it work? A staff member from the ComedyCritic.com visits a club by invitation. Then we write about or draw the best of what we see. We understand that stand-up comedy comes in a range of styles and "ratings". We know that audiences come in hot and cold. So we try to write about the best. The best comedians in the best clubs, making the best stand-up comedy experiences. ComedyCritic Reviews are syndicated to a growing network of over 26 comedy domains worldwide. For more details see below...
