Whitney Cummings is an extremely talented comedian and she is back with a new special. I feel like she tries harder in this special than I've ever seen but produces less laughs. She has great stage presence normally - and here I thought she was just going over the top too many times for cheap laughs, and not clever laughs like I have seen her do before. So most of the comedy falls into Amy Schumer territory which is not good unless you are 16. However this is not a train wreck like Amy Schumer (pun intended). It's worth a watch but you won't laugh out loud much.

This has got to be the least entertaining special of hers I've seen. It seemed like her and the audience weren't connecting, and it threw the whole routine off to the point that she had to explain the punchline of a lot of her jokes. Normally they film something like this a few times over a few nights or weeks and then put out the best version of it. IDK what happened here, seemed like they just did one rough take and that was it.

Still a fan, her other specials have all been good.

On a more serious note, Whitney has talked about her body insecurities and been open about that being the reason for her plastic surgery. It's clear that she struggles with body insecurity issues and has a hard time with relationships because of it. While there is no shame in any of that, it's clear that these feelings are the basis for a lot of her jokes and it turns into a lot of material that's sorta of blaming and bashing men in a way that feels more spiteful than funny. It feels more like she's going through a list of things that bother her, or things that she's struggles with, and pointing blame more so than trying to be funny. I think she lost her focus on this one. In her last special she talked about this stuff without making it an attack and I think that serves as a good example of how she struggled to thread the needle here.

I love her, but I think she was not physically or mentally ready for this. First of all, she was out of breath most of the time and it was not easy to watch, because I became concerned about her health. Second, I loved when she never smiled at her own jokes before and did not went too far to overexplain the joke. Other than that I though this was hilarious and clearly audience liked it too. I just wished she would talk more about her struggles regarding mental health. Also it was weird transition from her liking the old guys and then suddenly dating the younger guy. I knew she was dating younger one and at first I though she broke up with him. It was confusing.

Has Whitney decided to start channeling Nikki Glaser? Let's face it: Raunchy, low-brow comedy has become so common as to become tedious. I have no problem with raunchy, but when it is delivered without a grain of clever, it's just boring. Whitney can do better. This was a groan and a yawn.

Actually much funnier than Cummings's last special. Filmed in New Jersey, Whitney Cummings discusses life after engagement break-up, woke culture, and growing older. I think her set is funny and smart. This is a very enjoyable stand up. I think Whitney really has a great perspective on modern social trends. Catch this one.

Zero stars. I don't know what else to say. She isn't funny and this isn't comedy. This might have been the worst "comedy" special I've ever seen. Filler.

I'm surprised about the negative reviews here. I laughed quite hard through many parts of this show as did my wife. The live audience seems to enjoy it. It's way better than Nikki's new special. I have already recommended this show to several friends.

What in the hell did I just watch? I mean, the Andrew Schulz special was bad, but compared to this it was a masterpiece.

This mid-40 comedian (sorry, 39 of course *cough*) should have her picture under "physical comedy", what once was an okay roast comic and surely here and there a funny one, turned into a gymnast, except the gymnast is out of breath after every interpretation of a joke.

She thinks weird faces and movements, plus presenting the V constantly, equals funny. First part is just sex jokes, really bad ones. She is into old people, then suddenly she is into young guys. For the sake of comedy.

The second half is about stuff you did as a kid. Wild, right? Remember all the dangerous stuff we did as a kid? Wow. I remember *clap clap clap* But there is no joke.

Gringo Papi is the standard for the worst comedy special out there. But at least it was just 30 minutes. This is Whitney Cummings' 5th special, she should be good at this. Or just better than Schaub. But apparently she confused this one with a podcast. I didn't laugh once, I can at least laugh at Brendan Schaub ironically. This is worse.

So she's pretending not to be woke making fun of woke things? So many not funny or cringey parts... the whole thing has a weird vibe. Lots of jokes about her being super old but she's in her late 30s and still looks great so it really just doesn't work. Just very disappointing because she definitely can be funny, I've heard her on rogan and actually enjoyed the podcast.

I think Whitney tried to appeal to what she believed was the current comedy scene. This special is evidence of comedians being too distant from reality. Nothing in here is relatable to most people. The acting out is what children do when they can't get attention by using their intelligence.

Whitney's Netflix special is one of the worst, that I've suffered through. At minute 37, I couldn't take it anymore. Her jokes were as vulgar as ever, but not funny at all. Her awkward poses and looks into the camera were unnatural. She just is not a physical comedian, despite her effort. Also, I've rarely noticed a "comedian" who laughs at herself as much.

She's pretty, and that's all.

My gf, and I just watched her special, we both thought it was really funny. Not clapter type comedy many look for today, which I think is the reason for the poor reviews.

I don't know why she decided to put this out, but the material isn't very funny, let alone entertaining.

Given that she had several years to write new bits, this wasn't worth the wait at all.

Whitney is way too pretty to be a comedian. And too intelligent.

My wife laughed through nearly the entire show. I learned something about her that I never knew before.

Sex injuries are a real thing. Be careful out there, people.

Her ideas about privacy? Was that sarcasm?

A surprising audience response to the Valtrex joke.

The funniest parts were when she was trying to catch her breath. There was literally nothing funny enough to even crack a smile in the one hour set. If anything, some of the content was cringe. Before this show, I saw Bill Burr Live at Red Rocks and was crying in laughter. Now that's a comedy special! Maybe that's why I didn't find any of this funny, comparing the two.

Gawd, this show was absolute joke. Idk how this kinda stuff gets on to Netflix. We did laugh watching this but we were laughing AT HER cringeworthy antics more than her jokes. It has hilarious to see how unfunny jokes were. She was taking pauses after the punchlines but hardly anyone in audience were actually laughing.

I feel like this was some kind of rebound-revenge special following her broken engagement. The first 20 minutes were especially rough...

Whitney, you're better than this. Cute boots though.

I prefer the old Whitney where she would only yell the punchline - so that we knew where the funny was. It was like her own personal version of an applause sign and a laugh track. But now, she starts out yelling and mugging. Sadly, comedy specials seem to be rife with this now: Iliza Schlessinger, Kevin Hart, etc. Some people like to refer to them as being 'high energy' but it's just exhausting and it seems to be a tool and a tactic to use when the material isn't really there. This is what Robin Williams did for years and everybody was fooled by it. But go back and watch it now and you'll realize it was all a smokescreen. You're better off watching the latest Bill Burr special. Or Tig Notaro's last special.

This one just didn't do it for me, left at 47 minutes remaining. I thought she was just cringy, out of breath most of the time, laughing at her own jokes while the crowd just awkwardly laughs... that's about it.

I have seen All her other specials she's good, this just flops. Audience were very quiet which is weird, not sure if the Audio was just turned down but it seemed quiet. Also she seemed to be out of breath a lot of the time.

She just seemed to play it very safe in this special.

Skip it.

Just terrible, it's a new verson of Jeff Garlin's thoughts "when you see someone moving around like that on stage, I will bet you every penny there not funny"

This was nearly unwatchable. Awkward audience, Whitney seemed uncomfortable and the "jokes" just weren't connecting. I know she can be funny but it seems she played it safe, staying on the side of not funny.

I've liked her previous specials, so I'd like to chalk this boring performance to working over the same material for too long during the rona between specials. Quit after twenty minutes, tried to continue next day but no better.
