First off, lemme just say, David Spade. Love him or hate him, the dude’s been around the block. From “SNL” to “Tommy Boy” to, uh, whatever he’s doing these days, he’s carved out a pretty solid niche for himself. So when I saw “My Fake Problems” pop up, I was like, “Alright, Spadey, let’s see what you got.”
Now, the whole “free” thing? That’s the golden ticket, right? Who *doesn’t* want free entertainment? We’re all cheapskates at heart, admit it! The ad up there, that Paramount+ thing? Yeah, that’s probably your best bet for *legally* watching it. Look, I’m not advocating for piracy or anything (definitely not, wink wink), but let’s be real, the internet is a vast and… interesting place. Just be careful out there, folks. Don’t download anything that looks like it came from a Nigerian prince offering you a million dollars. Common sense, people!
Okay, back to the actual special. “My Fake Problems.” I gotta say, the title is… accurate. It’s Spade riffing on celebrity problems, aging, dating, and all the usual suspects. Is it groundbreaking comedy? Nah. Is it laugh-out-loud hilarious? Sometimes! There are definitely some solid bits in there, especially his stuff about dating younger women. That’s like, gold, Jerry, GOLD! But honestly, some of it feels kinda…dated? Like, I feel like I’ve heard some of these jokes before. Maybe that’s just me.
And honestly, the “fake problems” angle? I dunno. It’s kinda ironic, right? Because Spade *is* a celebrity, so *his* problems probably *are* fake to a lot of people. Maybe that’s the point? I’m probably overthinking it. I tend to do that.
Anyway, finding it for *free* is the real challenge. YouTube might have some snippets, but you’re probably not gonna get the whole shebang. And those free streaming sites? Ugh, good luck wading through the pop-up ads and potential viruses. It’s like navigating a digital minefield. Seriously, just pay for Paramount+ for a month. It’s worth it for this, and maybe you’ll find something else you like. I mean, they probably have, like, “SpongeBob” or something.
