I've watched Gad's stand up comedies since he first started getting famous (in France) and used to love his shows (in french). He used to just crack me up! His North America shows weren't as funny and started to get repetitive but they weren't bad at all, given that English is not his first language. I really appreciated this series. I guess maybe it's because I also lived in LA and I am also a French speaker. The series is not meant to be laugh out loud funny, the humour is a bit dark as other reviewers said but I think it's mainly a social commentary on the differences in culture and how you can be adored in one country and hated in another. PS: I don't think Gad is being a narcism at all, on the contrary; he makes fun of himself and recognizes his limitations as a Comedian. He self criticizes himself in the series. Narcissist don't do that.
