Ken Jeong's first Netflix special, You Complete Me, Ho is entertaining and fun, if you're not looking for too much substance or originality – think a hamburger and fries from an off-brand fast food joint that nonetheless scratches a certain itch. The rest of the special follows in step, with Jeong regularly falling into the Mr. Chow character, not to mention talking about The Hangover movies repeatedly. When he's not talking about the movie that shot him to fame, he's talking about his other roles and other name-drops, structuring his hour of comedy around his story of coming up in the comedy world. At its worst, the special comes off as humble-braggy and repetitive, without enough meaty jokes and laughs. At its best, such as when Jeong engages in top-shelf crowdwork, we can see the genius that got him the special in the first place.
