Deonm Cole stars in “Ok, Mister,” a new stand-up comedy special on Netflix. It is directed by Ryan Polito.
Once a staple on Conan O’Brien’s talk show, Deon Cole makes a triumphant return to Netflix with his stand-up special “Ok, Mister.” The title humorously suggests a code young girls might use to fend off unwelcome advances from older men.
Fear not—this performance is free from heavy drama. Instead, Cole masterfully navigates the intricacies of sexual relationships with sharp wit and biting irony. He regales us with tales of comically failed romantic encounters and the poignant frustrations that come with the passage of time. His self-deprecating humor and infectious energy keep the audience thoroughly entertained throughout the show.
In this engaging special, Deon Cole showcases his extraordinary comedic talent, grounded in realism, to highlight an all-too-familiar truth: as we age, sharing intimate moments with someone of the opposite sex becomes increasingly challenging.
Cole’s approach is a lesson in taking life’s absurdities in stride, armed with humor and self-assurance. With winter on the horizon, this September evening offers a perfect opportunity to reflect on life’s frustrations and embrace them with laughter.
Enjoy!
