For the first time, three of Chris Rock’s most popular standup comedy specials are available for $9.99 or less. That may not sound like much of a sale, until you know all three of these Instant Videos are normally priced at $14.99 each.
Note that all of the specials include a lot of adult language and content, and should be considered appropriate for mature audiences only.
