Joe Pera Special: Joe Pera Helps You Find The Perfect Christmas Tree
Creative comedian Joe Pera is teaching a valuable lesson this Christmas: the tell-tale signs of the world’s best trees… unless you’re going plastic, which can also be kinda fantastic. While this is more for Americans – who buy real trees – it’s the gift of comedy Christmas spirit that’s most important.
What should you know about Joe before streaming? He’s been on loads of talkshows like Conan, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Late Night with Seth Meyers, so you’ve probably seen him already. He’s incredibly intelligent. And he speaks with a dour, paced, monotone voice that is way older than his age of 32.
It’s the emotion of the special that hits you most though, says Josh Sorakash from decider.com: “Pera’s unique brand of droll humour is on display. His subdued enthusiasm, nerdy charm, and inherent likability compel us to root for this character, which is why Pera often makes himself the butt of the joke. The impact of the humour is heightened when it’s imbued with an emotional element. It’s not as much fun if Charlie Brown actually gets to kick the football, you know?”
