This is exactly right. Once I realized that, I experienced it differently.

Respectfully, it felt very "Ali Siddiq" but less funny. 🤭

I went into it blind and I really enjoyed it. He’s just super talented and has a great testimony.

samiam411.bsky.social•156 days ago

It’s a testimony

ladyvenoms.bsky.social•162 days ago

But....was it him or a clone?

mutedscreaming.bsky.social•162 days ago

Exactly this. It's a showcase of his talents and for that alone it's kind of amazing. It is easy to forget just how wide his talent reaches

coachphyllispierce.bsky.social•161 days ago

I honestly enjoyed it, watched it with my son‼️

Jamie did a full on secular testimony service with jokes and music intertwined. It was good.

This. I also think he needed to tell his story with an audience as supportive as the one he had. Not sure he'd have gotten through it otherwise.

mhowardwrites.bsky.social•162 days ago

I felt like it was an exclusive interview sharing his story but without an annoying host. Some jokes thrown in but beyond my expectations and so real of him. Also thought he wanted everyone to see he can still do the voices, cracks jokes and sing so all cylinders firing for those who were worried

I feel like this is how all of his shows, he’s so talented, he can’t just do one thing

Jamie Foxx got my emotions all over the place

I'm enjoying it! Wasn't expecting comedy, just what had happened

imaginaryplayer504.bsky.social•162 days ago

Is it kinda like the Jerrod Carmichael special?

fftvs.bsky.social•162 days ago

Na, plenty of tears, lighter than Jerrod’s. More like he’s testifying, weight lifting off his chest.

Celebrates his life in the back half.

Thanks! I’ll have to check it out

Much better description

angeliq-1decree.bsky.social•162 days ago

This the most accurate description of the show. I enjoyed it because it looks like he’s getting back to himself.

imangela.bsky.social•162 days ago

"Conspiratorial lunatics" Is exactly what they were/are.
I didn't see this but I'm glad Jamie was able to tell his story.

srmilesauthor.bsky.social•162 days ago

Which has been done more and more these days. Tig Notaro comes to mind.

djquicksilva.bsky.social•162 days ago

Maaaan this thing got me over here like 🥺😭

mhowardwrites.bsky.social•162 days ago

Right! Went in expecting a laugh riot and got so much more and a nice peek inside his personal life which he tends to keeps very private (as is his right)

alexlovelegit.bsky.social•162 days ago

I cried more than I laughed and it’s so good
