Jim Gaffigan is an eight-time Grammy nominated comedian, actor, writer, producer, two-time New York Times best-selling author, three-time Emmy winning top touring performer, and multi-platinum-selling recording artist. He is known around the world for his unique brand of humor, which largely revolves around his observations on life. His 11th special, The Skinny, premiered on Hulu last winter as the streamer's first ever original stand up special for their new comedy vertical, Hularious, and garnered almost 100 million clip views online. Gaffigan is currently on his, Everything is Wonderful! standup comedy tour.
Gaffigan is a top ten comedian according to Forbes' most recent comedy list and top ten earning comedian in Pollstar. He released his 10th comedy special, Dark Pale, in 2023 on Amazon Prime Video, an unprecedented achievement for the comedian/actor. Dark Pale was met with critical fanfare with The New York Times calling it, 'his best yet." Gaffigan is currently co-headlining with Jerry Seinfeld for a sold-out multi-city arena tour and in May of 2024, sold out two shows at The Hollywood Bowl during the Netflix Is Joke Festival.
In 2021 Gaffigan released his 9th special, Comedy Monster, on Netflix which was nominated for a Grammy Award. He was also recently awarded for being the first comedian to reach one billion streams on Pandora.
Gaffigan can currently be seen opposite co-stars Jerry Seinfeld, Melissa McCarthy, James Marsden, and Hugh Grant in Netflix's Unfrosted, which debuted as the #1 movie in the world on Netflix last May. He can also currently be seen as the lead in the well-reviewed and certified fresh Sci-Fi drama, Linoleum, which was named one of Vulture.com's best movies of 2023 and is currently streaming on Hulu after a theatrical release.
Gaffigan starred as Mr. Smee in Disney's Peter Pan and Wendy, opposite Jude Law and Yara Shahidi. Also premiering recently, Gaffigan joined the cast of HBO Max's Full Circle, a limited series from Steven Soderbergh and Ed Solomon which follows an investigation into a botched kidnapping, connecting multiple characters and cultures in present day NY.
On the silver screen, his many credits include Three Kings, Super Troopers 1 & 2, and Chappaquiddick. 2019 was Gaffigan's biggest year in film to date with an astonishing eight films releasing, three which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival including Troop Zero with Viola Davis and Alison Janney, Them That Follow and Light From Light - with many festival goers and press calling Gaffigan the "King of Sundance." Gaffigan was also recently heard in Disney/Pixar's highly anticipated animated film, Luca, opposite Jacob Tremblay and Maya Rudolph.
Jim was very funny for the very short time he was on. Disappointed in the length of time he performed.
The seats were on the floor. They were attached folding chairs with no armrest. We were in the back with your tiered seating. Those seats were full down stadium type seats with fold up arms. A surprised I could fold up armrest. There was zero cushioning, but it wasn’t horrible. A little bit better than I expected. As far as Jim goes, consumer is very high-quality and mostly very clean for our 13 year-old. I’d certainly go to see him again. I wouldn’t mind this location either.
Jim was Jim, all new material hilariously delivered. The warm up comedienne was very good too. The venue could have used more entrances staffed, slow go getting in from the street.
The show was awesome. Jim G is hilarious and the venue was amazing! It was a small place so every seat was a good one and it was incredibly convenient for parking. $20 in the garage that was attached to the venue. Just all around a great night! I will definitely be watching to see what other shows go to that venue!
We saw him live in Vegas and Chicago but it was so awesome to see him in Indianapolis since he’d from Indiana. He did a great job and many of his jokes were new to us, despite that we watch his specials all the time and have seen him live several times! He’s always a class act, but this felt like we got to spend a night with the real Jim… not just a celebrity. Highly recommend!
It was fun. He seemed a bit tired but still witty and funny as ever. I thought his portion was a bit shorter than expected. His warmup guy was ok. Some funny bits.
Jim Gaffigan continues to make me laugh. I am never disappointed in a Jim Gaffigan show, I highly recommend this show. The Borgata hotel is a good weekend getaway. All in all we had a great weekend in AC.
Really enjoyed this show! We never stopped laughing. We even thought the opener was great! Gaffigan is a very funny guy!
Funny as always and clean. Jim shows that you can be clean and still funny. The only downside was he did only 60 minutes which was too short. But he did leave everyone wanting more. He started on time which was a nice changed than most shows and walked out right after his warmup act finished.
Jim was in fine form on Friday night at the Borgata in Atlantic City. He was consistently funny throughout, evoking the feeling of his first few specials, which were brilliant. If you have a chance to see him on this tour, I highly recommend doing so. PS. His opener, Ted Alexandro, was good too, although he only did 15 minutes. He probably could have done a little more.
