The Horrible Friends have been around for some time, and if you’ve ever seen the show, you already know the formula. They’ve tossed in a couple of curves but essentially, the format’s the same.

There’s an adage about not screwing around with something that works—and what they do definitely works. The crowd roared with laughter and giving away drinks in return for volunteering can only help.

The show ended 15 minutes early. To me, the extra time would have been a perfect opportunity to test out some new routines. Yes, what they have works, but you never want to milk something until it gets stale.
