Product reviewsJeff Dunham - Very Special Christmas Special (DVD, 2008)

You want laughs for Christmas, this is it!

The dvd starts out with Jeff talking about his daughter who recently got her drivers license. She was making her first attempt at putting gas in the family car. If teenage girls & cars don't scream FUNNY, I dont know what does! Ha Ha

Shortly after that, the 'guys' show up.

The first half the show was hysterical. I haven't laughed so hard in years! I nearly had pop come out my nose. Especially the part where Achmed (the dead unibomber)gets ready to sing some christmas songs. I won't ruin it for you, but if you've never seen it I promise you'll laugh so hard you'll cry or pee your pants. yes I said "pee"! LOL

Another good thing is that it's not just a christmas dvd. You can watch it again and again throughout the year and still have some great laughs.

Unfortunately the last 25% of the show wasn't as funny as the first, but still had some good humor here and there. (This is why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5)

Overall it's a good flick and if you can get it for 10 bucks or less, buy it!Read full review...

Very Happy

I looked everywhere for this before Christmas. Unfortunately, I didn't order in time for Christmas, but we watched it for NYE. Best Jeff Dunham special in my opinion. Disc was a little scuffed, but played well. Very happy with this purchase. Read full review...

HILARIOUS!

Jeff Dunham is a surprisingly funny comedian and an incredibly talented ventriloquist!!! Before the marionettes even came out I was in stitches. I laughed till I had watery eyes. About the time I thought he was losing his spark, I rolled on the floor once again. Crazy Crazy funny. It is politically incorrect and adult themed comedy that could be considered PG-15 in my opinion. To anyone who thinks puppets are for kids these: jokes include sex, sexuality, breasts, male genitals, drugs and race. And although this is not for kids it is also not perverted foul or dirty like some stand up. I am not generally a huge fan of Stand up comedians. Occasionally, sure I'll watch a comedian but I have never seen Jeff Dunham before this show. I have queued the rest of his collection. This is one very talented and VERY funny man! I must admit (of his characters) Walter is my favorite of his alter ego's and by the time he got to Bubba J white-trash redneck I didn't find it AS funny but still worth the watching. The manic Peanut character had me back to rolling on the floor in laughter. Then Jose the Jalapeno joins them and they make fun of Achmed. Don't forget guitar guy. Great stuff. The Show does not start off extremely Christmassy but quickly does get into the seasonally themed humor jokes and songs. For ANYONE who really likes to laugh your BUTT off, consider this a Must See! Warning; your stomach may be sore after viewing this. But the rest of life pains will be dulled at least for the time. ENJOY! Hope this is Helpful!Read full review...

A very funny and entertaining video for family viewing

This video is so hilariously funny that the entire family can enjoy it. The puppet characters, Walter, Achmed, Peanut, and Jose' Jalapeno on a stick, are all used by Jeff Dunham and his ventriloquism is absolutely excellent. He has a guest on this one, the guitar man, and he can't keep from laughing when trying so hard to be serious. This is the third of Jeff's videos I have and it is my favorite.

Jeff is very versatile when it comes to the subject matter of his videos. He does not really put anyone down, but makes light of anyone, regardless of race or religion.

This one has a part that most parents of teenage first-time-drivers can relate to and it keeps the whole audience in stitches.

Overall this is a fantastic video and there are a lot of great laughs here. Sit back and enjoy this one, you will love it, too.Read full review...

Comedy, laughs, belly laughs, too cool.

Love Dun-HAM! Love Peanut and Achchchchcmed! Jeff may be billed as a ventriloquist, but he is also a talented COMEDIAN with a great humorous perspective on life, politics, etc.

Worth the money.

I still like the spark of insanity video better, and I wasn't crazy about the bleeping of the swear words. There is no way to change the feature on how they filter that out. Either way, I am a big fan of Jeff Dunham, so I enjoyed him and his puppets. I think it was way worth the money.Read full review...

Hilarious as Always but a DVD that's bleeped?

this was a hilarious DVD as expected from Jeff Dunham - He's AWESOME and so often I forget these are only puppets - you SWEAR he's talking to a REAL LIVE PERSON/ANIMAL - they are absolutely side splitting funny, as were the other two DVD's of Jeff Dunham.

THE ONLY diappointment we had with THIS DVD as compared to the others was that it was BLEEPED -- I expect that on TV, and if I choose the option for Bleeped Version. But this didn't give us an option .... it was just bleeped out so that was a little disappointing for us as adults, you don't expect that when you purchase the DVD. So .... that's the only bummer.

But HYSTERICAL as usual - never lets us down in the funny dept., EVER!Read full review...

Happy Holidays...Merry Christmas

This Christmas special is certainly very special, this is another great Jeff Dunham performance. With Walter's attitude toward "Happy Holidays", Bubba J's redneck Christmas, and the songs that the puppets sing with the help of the Guitar Guy, this will turn into a holiday favorite for anyone that likes Jeff Dunham's previous performances. Again, it contains some language but this is a great addition to any Christmas DVD collection, any comedy collection, or any DVD collection. Full of laughs and Christmas cheer. If you have seen the first two DVDs, you should get your hands on this one also. Great DVD for not just the holidays, but for any day that you need a good laugh. I highly recommend this!Read full review...

Jeff Dunham - Very Special Christmas Special

Ventriloquist Jeff Dunham pulls out all the stops--and puppets--for this holiday comedy special that's fit for the whole family. The irreverent performer celebrates the season with all of his foam-and-fur cohorts: Peanut, an odd purple creature with a fast (and flaming) mouth; Jose Jalapeño, a smooth-talking pepper on a stick; Bubba J, NASCAR’s biggest fan; and Walter, a dirty old man with no internal censor. VERY SPECIAL CHRISTMAS SPECIAL features Dunham and the puppet brigade bantering about Santa, sleigh rides, and gift-giving. The release also includes the bonus music video "Roadkill Christmas."Read full review...
