One year ago Reuben was humiliated on the stage of America's Got Talent. Booed by the crowd and rejected by the judges who cruelly denied his Golden Buzzer loophole. Now he returns to seek revenge or redemption, whichever is easiest, in the form of standup comedy. One man, one microphone, and a crowd, surrounding him on all sides. Watching. Surveying. Judging. Laughing? Maybe. Yes. Of course. Clapping? Yes, please, dammit it's in the title of the show. He's ready. Lights on. Cameras rolling. Nothing can go wrong.
