Synopsis

This disc features four half-hour cable specials and bonus material from Comedy Central's energetic commentator on absurdities in politics and culture. The collection allows fans and newcomers to observe the comic's evolution since his 1998 show, in which he famously remarked, "It's absolutely stupid that we've lost the ozone layer. We've got men, rockets, Saran Wrap—fix it!" In these specials, he critiques Bill Clinton's handling of infidelity ("If curling is an Olympic sport, oral sex is adultery!"), the Y2K scare, flu vaccinations, the American power structure, Ross Perot ("He's the kid in *Deliverance* all growed-up!"), and offers a satirical "Taxes 101" lecture ("What would help IRS forms? Verbs!"). Bonus content includes Black's "Indecision 2000" segments, offering sharp commentary on the last Republican and Democratic conventions for Jon Stewart's show.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 2

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
