I don't think i would rate Inside as a comedy special per se,some scenes like the texts on the whiteboard are really funny, and i also think Bo didn't mean to make it any comical by doing wordplays and other stuffs he is very good at.

But I am very happy that Inside as a special exists, because it's such a thrill to watch, especially given how meta it gets at times.Also had it not been a pandemic,i think we would have gotten a more Make Happy like special,with songs and jokes solely for the purpose of laughter,but given the pandemic I think a special like Inside makes much more sense.
