Kathleen Madigan: A la caza del Bigfoot

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 have he of her but have never realized how funny she is. Very funny using situational comedy about her life and observations she makes you giggle and laugh out loud with every line delivered.

On balance a very good show without ever having to stoop to sex or cruelty which is always a tell tale sight they are a class act. Big foot doesn't come around until the final gag but it's worth the wait. You won't be sorry watching this. Makes me want to find out where I can steam her other specials. Or perhaps if she was in other sit coms or films. It a pleasure to watch such a show without having to sink to the depths of gross humor.

I look forward to Kathleen's podcast every week, and was so happy when her latest special came out on Prime. Her comedy is a pleasure to watch, and my bestie is convinced they could be sisters. Her genius is cultivating an aura of personable humor that makes you feel like you're having a spontaneous conversation with a friendly stranger at a local watering hole. I look forward to more jokes about her parents, weirdos from Missouri, aging politicians, and whatever else she encounters when she's on the road, reviewing the news, playing golf, searching for aliens, or hunting for bigfoot. Well done!

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.

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.
