Published 2023-09-27
Taped before a live audience in New York City, Long Story Short showcases CQ's keen observations in the uproarious history of the world, juxtaposing modern-day human behavior with the rise and fall of empires. From his personification of Caesar as the original mobster to his complaints about Ancient Greece giving way to Costco and Snooki, Quinn is at his satirical best. Colin Quinn performs his one-man show about world history, which he originally presented on Broadway.
Directed By Jerry Seinfeld

Masterpiece

This came out 12 years ago. It doesn't feel dated in any way. Honestly, a treasure of a special.
-
Most overlooked and underrated comedian of all time
-
Colin Quinn is one of the greatest comics of all time. The wit and sarcasm are unmatched
-
This is like Colin's magnum opus. This is fantastic. I've always loved him, but this is next level.
-
I cannot believe that he can memorize this whole special without a teleprompter
-
Colin Quinns specials should be taught in high schools/universities throughout the United States. And that's NO joke!
-
Colin you won't read this but you really should know that you've impacted comedy spectacular fashion. None like you, my friend. Thanks for all you've given us.
-
Wow this is not only colins masterpiece, its a masterpiece in general. Its this type of writing and performance that immortalizes a comedian.
-
One of the best performances I've ever seen in my life. Funny, sharp and intelligent. (I sound like one of those NY Times articles reviewing the special hahahaha)
-
I FEEL CULTURALLY ENRICHED!!!
-
Love that he’s upstaging Rich Vos with his special dropping the day after! Way to go, Colin!
-
I love Colin's perspective on life - it's cynical and loving at the same time
-
This is so brilliant. We need more Colin.
-
Simply amazing. Whether Colin is bashing Jimmy on O&A, playing a gritty NY detective, or giving a history lesson he is simply amazing in all his endeavors.
-
Colin is so goddamn good at what he does. He really has solidified himself as one of the best comedians of all time.
-
Brilliant. The Cliff notes of world history. Thank you 😊

Thank you for sharing this for free, Colin! Inarguably one of the greatest to ever do it.

This was an absolute masterpiece. For those that don't know there is another special Colin did about the history of new york. It's the same format an just as good
