Ron White (DVD) Review

February 2nd, 2011 · Comedy

Write-up by Britt Gillette

Any person who’s seen the Blue Collar Comedy Tour knows Ron White well. Blessed with a deep Southern accent (I’m from the South too), White dominates the stage with a rare charisma only couple of comedians achieve. With a glass of liquor in hand and curling puffs of cigarette smoke emanating from his mouth, Ron White delivers line after line of creative wit that’s his and his alone…

So yesterday, I was sittin’ in a beanbag chair naked eatin’ Cheetos, and I decided to pop in this Ron White DVD, and could you believe it? He was talking about sittin’ in a beanbag chair naked eating Cheetos… It’s like he KNOWS me!

Any fan of White and his Blue Collar Comedy Tour friends is very familiar with the beanbag chair and the Cheetos, and Ron White’s They Call Me Tater Salad is no disappointment. The DVD rehashes some of the more common parts of his Blue Collar routine, while simultaneously delving into new areas of study. Viewers will rapidly learn the difference between a pair of sunglasses and a ” TV that decodes digital signals from outer F-$ %@! Space!” Simply because there is a distinction after all. 1 blocks 100% of all UV rays and also gets fundamental cable. The other can be purchased at Wal-Mart… With White’s comedy career taking off, you’ll also locate out that if he had recognized the distinction between anecdote and antidote as a kid, then his friend Bob Snyder would still be alive…

If you haven’t seen the Blue Collar Comedy Tour, then I extremely recommend it. It’s 1 of the best comedy DVDs in years. Ron White is a great reason why. Perfect in his delivery and showcasing a instinctive knowledge of best timing for a remark, he makes a name for himself with this one. And for those who adore to watch stand-up comedy, this is a definite “should-see”.
