Sam Morril may expertly subvert expectations with his jokes, but his predictable edgelord slant undermines his talent on Same Time Tomorrow. Read our review:
Sam Morril’s raspy voice may seem calming, but he knows how to keep you on the edge of your seat. The New York comedian is adept at the bait-and-switch, employing it right from the start of his latest Netflix special,, which was filmed in Chicago in June 2022. Morril may expertly subvert expectations with his joke telling, but his predictable edgelord slant undermines his talent in this new set.
There are some bright spots, though. Morril creatively dissects language, draws us in with skilled storytelling, and looks at the world from a wry point of view. He even has some surprising moments, like when he jumps out of his usually serene delivery to give a frenetic impression of what he imagines it’s like to battle a porn addiction .
Like any edgy male comedian these days, Morril mentions trans people, but in his usual flip-the-script ways, his bits aren’t at the expense of this much discriminated-against minority, instead poking fun at the conversation around them.
