Comedian Jeff Foxworthy – You Might Be a Redneck If…
The undisputed king of country comedy Jeff Foxworthy returns with two hilarious specials bound to please your inner redneck!
Up first is the timeless You Might Be a Redneck If…, a catalog of things to things to watch out for the next time you’re studying your family heritage. Then Jeff’s comedy bestseller, Check Yer Neck, comes to your TV screen with a series of tips for uncultured living.
This double bill of Jeff Foxworthy’s old Showtime specials is loaded with the country comic’s enduring material about family life, the perils of dating, booze-fueled stunts, and, of course, the ever-expanding watchlist of Redneck symptomatology.
In You Might Be a Redneck If…, Foxworthy doesn’t waste time launching into his most famous series of observations, including “If you’ve ever taken a beer to a job interview, you just might be a redneck,” and “If you refer to the 5th grade as your ’senior year,’ you just might… etc.”
Also discussed are illegal temptations of the Victoria’s Secret catalog, the entertainment factor single people offer married people, and the trouble with dating a girl who already has a boyfriend. Check Your Neck, taped in Dallas, has good material about Texas vernacular (“Y’anta?” “Awrigh.”) and romance (spraypainting your lover’s name on an overpass).
As you will quickly see, Foxworthy’s vintage, populist act is still a winner for virtually every kind of audience. (more)
Here’s what one Jeff Foxworthy fan had to say about You Might Be A Redneck If…
I saw this DVD after watching the Blue Collar Comedy Tour this year. This DVD must have been produced more than ten years ago as his daughter had just been born. And he is a young pup!
Jeff delivers belly-laugh funny “You Might be a Redneck If….” which sends the crowd into hysterics. Me too. Most of his material about single life, relationships, and southern living are based on his own family experiences and really hit a cord.
Jeff Foxworthy is an extraordinarily talented comedian, as his continuing popularity has shown.

Short, But Sweet
This disc contains two of Jeff Foxworthy’s performances, each about 30 minutes long. Thirty minutes is a bit short for a standup routine, but including a pair of them does make…

Great Video for Laughs1
My college aged teenagers and my husband and I really enjoyed this video! For once, we all sat together and watched a video.
This DVD contains two 30 minute monologues from Jeff Foxworthy. They are a bit dated as he looks very young here. These monologues are filled with his southern goofball shtick – lots of good jokes about married life, crazy family members, goofball things people do, and of course his infamous You Might Be a Redneck If … jokes.
The one thing I am surprised about is how much of the material he used back then is still in his routines now. And it’s all so funny you just never get tired of hearing them. Even though it’s short and sweet, it’s quite funny and worth plopping down a few bucks for.
