by

As a comedy enthusiast who’s seen more jokes than a stand-up comedian’s notebook, I can confidently say that 2024 has been a banner year for Netflix and laughter lovers alike! From Ellen DeGeneres to Ali Wong, the streamer’s comedy lineup is a veritable feast of humor.

1) We can hardly believe how quickly this year is flying by – it feels like New Year’s celebrations were just yesterday, and before we know it, we’ll be ringing in a brand new one again! So far, 2024 has been a fantastic year for Netflix, and there are still plenty of exciting releases to come.

As a long-time comedy enthusiast, I must say that this year has been a rollercoaster ride for me, with an abundance of new comedy specials hitting our screens. Despite having already watched numerous ones, there’s still a substantial number left to explore. Just as the crisp autumn air is beginning to fill the air at the start of September, Netflix dropped two specials that truly tickled my funny bone – “Phil Wang: Wang in There, Baby!” and “Ahir Shah: Ends”. Both shows were hilarious, showcasing the unique perspectives and wit of these talented comedians. I highly recommend giving them a watch if you’re seeking some well-deserved laughter in your life!

Fortunately, another Netflix comedy special is due out at the month’s end, and it’s one that has been generating much excitement among viewers. If you’re curious about the upcoming special, just continue reading. It’s widely recognized as one of the top Netflix comedy specials this fall. We’ve also included information on two other highly anticipated comedy specials slated for release in fall 2024.

This marks her fourth comedy special on Netflix, having previously released “Don Wong“, “Hard Knock Wife“, and “Baby Cobra“. In this new special, she delves into the experiences of her post-divorce life and her search for love once more.

Hasan Minhaj: Off With His Head

In the third comedy special on Netflix titled “Off With His Head“, the incredibly amusing comedian Hasan Minhaj humorously explores topics such as midlife identity issues, racial dynamics, and politics. Prior to the release of this special, it’s a great idea to watch Minhaj’s other Netflix stand-up performances like “Homecoming King” and “The King’s Jester“.
