Yeah, just bought his comedy central dvd at wal-mart for 10 bucks. Fucking hilarious. If you don't know, he is a comedic magician. Most of the time he acts incompotent, with hilarious results, but he also pulls out some neat tricks here and there.

An example

His assistant is also awesome

Is the DVD of his first comedy central special or the most recent?

I love his stuff and Ive been watching his older material for a while now. He does pretty much the same stuff every show but it always gets funnier and funnier.

Ive been looking for the DVD's for a while but never saw them. I guess I will head up to wal-mart in a few minutes to see if they have it at mine.

The magic tricks are fun, but most of the time he's on par with Carrot Top.

It has his most recent show, the comedy central special, and his premium blend appearance.

Yeah, there are a couple repeats between the shows, but most of it is different. Even still, the peanuts gag never gets old.

Dunno, gotta disagree. Its gimmicky, I admit, but its a way better gimmick than carrot tops.

That's not even remotely fair. If you are comparing prop comics, sure, they share only that they use devices. But throwing a grandfather clock on Flavor Flav, or the various other ridiculous "puns" Carrot Top throws out really doesn't compare to the over the top illusions that Johnathan presents. There are far better comparisons.

He reuses the same jokes/bits way too much but he is funny sometimes..
