Kathleen Madigan: A la caza del Bigfoot

I had my calendar cleared for the day Hunting Bigfoot premiered. I was so excited and was not disappointed. Kathleen Madigan is one of the few comedians my very diverse family can all enjoy together and laugh instead of getting offended. Even while making jokes about millennials, she talks about them with a kind of respect that doesn't make anyone feel like they got thrown under the bus. Her perspective on current affairs are the best ( I love her podcast!), but as always, the stories about her family are my favourite. If you like stand up comedy, do yourself a favor and check out Hunting Bigfoot or any one of her specials.

I have liked her routines for years. This started a little slow, but soon I was laughing out loud. Seriously, the Bandaid joke is spot on. Her jokes on her aging parents resonate with me as someone with a purse full of pills, and I'm older than Kathleen. Yeah, she picks on groups (aging Senators, you're the butt of many jokes).

Someone else here said she misnames generations. If she doesn't make you laugh, move on. That's what I do. If her jokes work for you, this is a good show with some very good material. I recommended it to several people. I'm going to watch it again. It's a bright spot in the universe.

I gave this 10 stars without hesitation; it was THAT good! Kathleen Madigan is one of the best comedians I've ever had the good fortune to be entertained by. Most Stand-ups' spiels have their high points and low points, but Madigan's was funny from start to finish. Not just funny, but unique. She is a brilliant writer with impeccable delivery. I can't wait for her next special!

Um.. I thought I was done, but apparently you cannot leave a review here unless it meets a 600 character quota. WT. .? Why? Why can't we say what we want to say in just a few lines, or a paragraph? ... 13 to go.. 3, 2, 1.

I love that, watching a Kathleen Madigan special, you kind of know what you're in for, but still, you are surprised and get so much more. Lots of little stories about her family are easily the highlight of this special for me. But also some great material on growing up in the Ozarks and what life is like there and also able to touch on politics without being divisive. Instead, pointing out the inanity of it all. If you're a reasonable person that isn't a die-hard cult member of either side, you can really appreciate what she's saying and find it hilarious. But stop wasting your time reading reviews like mine. Just watch the special.

What the actual fuuu?! I sincerely hope whomever set up her microphone stand was immediately fired!!! Wow! This is a comedy special, not some 12:30am set at Joe's bar in Sheboygan! She tried, unsuccessfully, to fix it herself at the beginning, but she gets paid to tell jokes, not to work as a roadie. Why did no one immediately go out there to adjust the mic stand? It blocked half her face! The incompetence is unfathomable! She should be pretty POed at this BS.

However, Kathleen was a trooper and went through with her show and was pretty funny. She deserved better than the ridiculous microphone set up she had. When she was younger I thought her comedy was pretty hilarious, then she went through a little phase of so so, now she's back with the funny. Her show was very enjoyable.....except for the stupid microphone stand situation that was not her fault.
