My family loves "Parks and Recreation" and our favorite character in the show, by far, is Ron Swanson who is played by Nick Offerman. We knew nothing about Offerman--just that we really enjoyed watching him play that character. So, when we saw this new stand-up featuring Offerman, we wanted to see it and see who he was and what his act is like when he's not playing Ron. Sadly, though we love him on TV we did not like "Nick Offerman: American Ham". Our reasons boiled down to two big reasons: the stand-up routine was incredibly crude and it also really wasn't very funny. Now understand--we are NOT prudes and his cursing was not really the problem. Instead, he used a lot of words that IMDb won't allow in my review--words about female anatomy--some of which were very crude. And, since I was watching this with my wife and adult daughter, hearing him talking a lot about sex and female genitalia was very uncomfortable. Add to that that it wasn't funny, it made for a very painful viewing experience.
