Kevin Smith goes to Toronto. He praises Canada (but he's not pandering). He talks about Tim Horton, his family, a lot of dick jokes, throwing an election, revisiting Prince, Gibson's Passion of Christ and whatever off the top of his head. He supports Affleck who was getting bashed at the time. Jason Mewes does Half, Half, Whole which brings the place down.
In London, he's in a more intimate space. He starts off railing against some bad press from The 3M Girls after Jersey Girl. There is less drug humor and a little hesitation with the language differences. It's more hit and miss compared to Toronto. The crowd is older and not the college crowd that he gets back in America.
The Toronto show is very much in line with the first "An Evening with Kevin Smith". It's rowdy and no holds barred. The London show is more mixed. It has the young wild college kids but even they run more towards film fans. I would bet that the percentage of marijuana smokers is much lower in London. London has more slow spots but it's still quite fascinating. The language problem does get a little tiresome but I don't blame anybody for that.
