Netflix released a new comedy special, Jim Jefferies: High N' Dry, this Valentine's Day, February 14, 2023. The one-hour, eight-minute show is the Australian comic's fifth special for the streaming giant and his tenth overall.
The official synopsis for Jim Jefferies: High N' Dry reads:
“Jim Jefferies is back for his fifth Netflix comedy special, High n’ Dry and no topic is off limits. The comedian muses on stoned koalas, his dad’s vasectomy confusion, choosing between his hair and his s*x drive and more.”
The High N' Dry Netflix special garners positive response
With a 7.1 IMDb rating, the special has garnered a positive response from viewers. A featured review on the IMDb page reads:
"As always, he does a great job with storytelling and his always enjoyable digressions that entertaining enough that you almost forgot what led to them. Even better is his take on the LGBTQ issues and does a great job laying it all out without leaving the reality of it all."
It further reads:
"From the sounds of it, this might be the last Jim Jefferies special. I hope it's not but if it is, it's a great way to end."
Some users had a humorous take on the comedy special:
While the Australian comedian is no stranger to controversy and has had his share of criticism for his take on sensitive issues, viewers will get to see him get more personal with this set.
As per a news report on Decider:
"In High n’ Dry, Jefferies has found himself newly married and loving life with his wife and kids. But he still has plenty to say about the LGBTQ+ community, as well as his thoughts on baldness (yes, there is an Oscars slap reference, but only sort of), more analysis of The Bachelor and The Bachelorette than you might have expected out of him, and the reason why he’ll never get drunk again."
Jim Jefferies became popular with his debut HBO special, I Swear to God
