Not what it should be, if not bad

The base concept for this is what makes it stand out. Two stand-up comedians swap material, with no debate or veto rights. A little fun is had with the fact that they're performing what they did not write, but really, this amazing opportunity is just about completely wasted. The already similar pair seem indistinguishable, other than the exact mannerisms on stage, and frankly, Anden clearly puts less effort into the set he composes. His beloved, clever, aggressive and cruel style is apparent throughout, and both portions are hilarious. No doubt about that. And yes, he is the funnier of the two(he remains the superior joke-teller and improviser). Hartmann does get plenty of well-deserved laughs(and definitely works for them). The humor is both silly and refined, it gets incredibly nasty(and the audience reacts quite directly to it), there are pop culture references and they leave you thinking about something, current or otherwise. The excessive feminism of decades past(they went too far towards the other end of the spectrum, natural enough, after having been oppressed for so long), the tremendous coddling of children today when compared to merely a generation ago(when Junior Chemist "toys" could be purchased for children), and as usual, sex is a common fallback. There is immense strong, explicit language in this. I recommend this to every fan of either or both men. 8/10
