The stretch of the year — often autumn through early winter — when comedy festivals, specials, and tours converge and the culture suddenly has opinions about standup again. Standup szn is when Netflix drops its biggest specials, when every comedian has a new hour on the road, and when Twitter becomes a battleground for defending or destroying whatever controversial bit someone did. For fans it's the most exciting time on the calendar; for comedians it's when the stakes of every set feel higher.
Three specials dropped in one week — standup szn is hitting different this year.
