Yearly Departed

I laughed a few times throughout but absolutely hated the "audience" reactions. Sometimes they didn't even make sense, it felt like they recorded a bunch of them at once and edited them in randomly after each sentence spoken. Annoying!

Don't believe the reviews this was a great special. I enjoyed the point of view and related to a lot of the monologues. My favourites were Tiffany Hadish, Natasha Rothwell and Natasha Leggero. Sara Silverman sums everything up nicely at the end! I can see people not liking it but it probably wasn't made for them. I will save people time don't watch it if you can't handle strong funny women, believe COVID was a hoax, supported the Trump presidency or believe "all lives matter", this is not for you.

This lineup is a bunch of amazing comics! They happen to be women and many of them happen to not be white. I think that's a big part of the hate on the reviews. These days, you have to laugh otherwise you always cry. Thanks for some inspiration.

I thought comedy was supposed to be funny. Sarah Silverman seems to suck the life out of comedy ( and pretty much everything else she takes a stab at ). Enough said about her. This was so bad that Hollyweird just make a sequel v2.0 so they could rub our noses in it all over again...as if the past two years we've endured weren't bad enough all by themselves. A real comedy wind-up for the year would have at least permitted us some gallows humour relief--but NO. I think they actually just want us to feel even more miserable about things. ( Kudos to them: mission accomplished. ) I remember when comedy was about making wry observations and pointing out the flaws of yourself, other people, society and current events in a humorous way. Apparently that's now completely given way to disgusting comments, woke preachiness and toxic ideological ramblings that leave no room for laughing at yourself or others--with room to grow and connect. Humour left the room a long time ago.

If you want to hear I requested critiques on politics and racism, this is your jam. Don't waste your time. The year in review on Netflix was much funnier!
