Amazon.com: Arguing With Myself, a recorded live performance of ventriloquist Jeff Dunham, portrays a comedian whose revival of an old-fashioned art has made ventriloquism more relevant to modern societal concerns. Starring his six main characters, from Bubba Jay, a Nascar-obsessed hick, to Peanut, a flamboyant gay monkey, Dunham's puppets have dirty but relatively inoffensive senses of humor that mock the American Dream. One can easily see why Jay Leno champions Dunham, as his skits contain a similar sly sarcasm disguised as wholesome teasing aimed at men indebted to their ugly wives, for example, or people who live their lives working in cubicles. At times, though, Dunham's humor seems to lose its ironic distance, especially as he interacts with puppets like Jose Jalapeño, a Cuban chile pepper, or Sweet Daddy D, a Black pimp, both reliant on the antiquated humor once popularized in cartoons by racial caricature. Since the entire audience in the film is white, it is difficult to assess whether or not African-Americans or Latinos would find Dunham funny. In other words, Dunham's humor isn't overtly offensive enough to make fun of ethnic heritage. However, his skills as a ventriloquist alone make him a fascinating entertainer, and anyone interested in how puppetry and ventriloquism has progressed over the decades would benefit from watching Dunham bring life to his wooden friends. --Trinie Dalton
amazingly funny THIS DVD IS THE BEST, VERY,VERY FUNNY JEFF DUNHAM IS GREAT WITH HIS PUPPETS. I ENJOYED WATCHING THE DVD VERY MUCH. NOT ONLY DID I WATCH IT ONCE BUT MANY TIMES. SUSAN LEWANDOWSKI
Absolutely funny I had tears in my eyes, I was laughing so hard! Absolutely great to have around the house as something to watch with others. And, they even have it so you can do the "bleeped" version, should there be kids around.
Funny Guy Dunham has to be one of the funniest guys around. Totally amazing how he can be himself and have all those altar-egos. Peanut is the most amazing. How he can be calm and collected and have Peanut is off the wall. Very worth watching, better to own.
Extremely Funny!!! Way awesomely funny even if you don't know who he is!! Great comic without being too dirty. Highly recommended!!!!!!
Funniest thing I've seen in a long time Jeff Dunham is the funniest thing this country has produced in a long time. His characters are so real.
