Parenthood is a bit like beige wallpaper, though; you have to be able to find the funny in it or youโ€™ll cry every day.

He may not be the most challenging comedian ever but he does observational stand up at the absolute top tier.

It's broad, it's over the top, but it's still brilliant. Similar to Peter Kay really.
