The comedian's first stand-up special in 23 years, feels like little more than a collection of pitches that were a little too risque for "Everybody Loves Raymond..."

He doesn't seem to be trying very hard here, and the framework of the special allows for him to be just okay without the audience's feeling cheated.

While there's nothing controversial or groundbreaking in Romano's set, his delivery is cozy and warm.

Much like the raw and personal connection found in Jeff Ross and Dave Attell's recent Bumping Mics, Right Here Around the Corner captures the joy of a comedy club.
