A little bit of brightness about a rough year

I loved so much about this special. Meg Stalter, Yvonne Orji, and Jane Fonda in particular were so so so excellent, and there are so many great visual jokes tucked into it as well. I appreciate the way this highlights female talent in a way they deserve.

Funny women rule!

F those guys who don't know that women are funny. Laughed out loud 9ver and over. Maybe the 1 star reviews are guys who just don't like to use their brains. Better than the first one .

Just not as funny as it could have been.

Many missed opps. NOT FUNNY - just stupid. I reallynwish there had been some better known comedians. Jane Fonda was the highlight - and that is just sad. Last year was - meh - this ywar was just not worth the 60ish minutes of my life I'll never get back.

Worse Than Last Year's Flop

I didn't think it was possible, but this year's submission is even worse than last year's disaster. Both are painfully unfunny. It's like the writers and producers doubled-down on a horrible concept just to own their critics.

Need better comedians

Sadly, I have heard my fair share of "Women aren't funny" comments from men, and this special gave them an hour's worth of evidence. :( Seriously, couldn't they get an Iliza Schlesinger or Anjelah Johnson? You know... someone who is actually funny? Will not watch again.
