Jimmy Carr jokes about being cancelled in Netflix special teaser fans brand ‘disappointing’
Jimmy Carr joked about being "cancelled" in a teaser for his new Netflix special that fans have described as "disappointing."
The 8 Out of 10 Cats presenter was widely criticised in 2021 for a joke he made in Netflix comedy special His Dark Material about the Holocaust.
In Jimmy Carr: Natural Born Killer, the comedian said: "I’m going to come out on the day of the cancellation. I’m going to say, I’ve rehearsed this, I’m going to say - I'm sorry," ending the sentence in a mocking tone.
"I like Jimmy… but these routines are getting so samey and boring. I’m not offended, I’m just disappointed," one fan said on social media.
