The Best Stand-Up Specials Ranked From Ha Ha To Na Na | Social Goat Skip to main content
Find out if they’re worth mooching off on your friend’s Netflix/Amazon Prime account.

They say too much of anything is bad for you. But what about comedy?

Could too many jokes be bad for you? Well, we don’t know that for sure, but we do know that a bad joke in general isn’t the best thing for you.

The point I’m trying to make is that there’s tons of comedy content out there with stand-up specials by international and Indian artists. Some of them are a hit and some definitely worth a miss. 

We’ve sieved through these shows for you, so that you don’t have to sit through the agonising humour and jump straight to the big laughs.
