One of my L.A. professional comedy guys reports from his watercooler: โ€œChris Rock is getting mixed-to-bad reviews, even among those who are

wildly in agreement with his politics. He just wasnโ€™t that funny,

which shouldnโ€™t really be surprising โ€” he is best when he is

obscenity-laced and shockingly provocative, two tools which were taken

away from him at the Kodak.โ€
