"Last night I went to the taping of Theo Von’s new Netflix Special at the Beacon. It was hard to watch. He seemed unrehearsed and disorganized, repeating bits multiple times clearly trying to get it right for the camera. This killed the vibe in the theater. More than that the material seemed stale and immature."

Another user (@paige29863) showed support for the comedian and asked him to take a break,

Another user (@CryptoGrimley) who was present at the show mentioned that it was "very uncomfortable".

"I was at the Theo Von Netflix special taping last night. What no one is talking about is that he started crying at the end and mumbled something about "liquor demons" and fell off the stage. Very uncomfortable. Or maybe that was supposed to be funny?"
