July 9 (UPI) -- Comedian Nate Jackson's first Netflix special, Super Funny, is out now, and the performer says he knew a show that largely revolves around roasting his audience would be a "risky" endeavor.
Jackson, whose resume also includes appearances on Nick Cannon Presents: Wild'N Out, Curb Your Enthusiasm and Peacock's upcoming The Office spin-off, The Paper, earned more than 4 million TikTok followers with his brand of audience-roasting comedy.
The new special kicks off with Jackson explaining his "three rules:" If he looks at you, and you keep eye contact, you're fair game; once the roast has started, looking away will not save you; and don't be offended on behalf of other people.
In a recent phone interview, the comedian told UPI his largely-improvisational style comes with no small amount of risk.
"We don't know what might happen," he said. "I don't think anybody in production feels wholly comfortable. Like, all right, we're all going to show up to a city, we're going to set up gear, let's press record and see what we get. Fingers crossed. And so I take a risk every time I do it, but I definitely took a risk on the special."
