Ali Wong: Baby Cobra

I'm a 35 year old women and I found the show hilarious. It left me wanting to just hang out with Ali, and maybe she would become my best friend. Her humor is extremely relatable, based on truths some of which I had chosen to forget, others keep quiet. Watching the show on my own, I found myself laughing out loud on my couch, and wondering how she would dare say some of the things coming out of the mouth, and if her husband and family were allowed to watch the show. I've also watched a few episodes of Fresh Off the Boat - a show for which she writes - and could recognize the frankness of her style despite covering completely different topics.

I loved her show. Her material are well delivered and the connection between the jokes are great unlike most comedians who are throwing out a lot of jokes until they find one that gets the reaction.

Her personality is great on stage and I enjoyed every single moment of it even during the awkward moments.

I've seen a lot of angry white male youtubers posting videos about how women aren't funny - it's such a stupid stigma to believe in (and I don't like that I'm drawing attention to it here), but I understand why it exists because historically there have been so many more acclaimed male comedians than there are female ones. Their arguments were so stupid, with no regard for how women have only been able to do a lot of jobs much more recently than men, and I hated to think that I couldn't clap back with a female comedian I really liked, until now. Ali Wong is exhibit A, I'm sure I'll fill up the rest of the alphabet with all the other comedians I've been sleeping on, but for now let me say that Baby Cobra is a great show. I really liked Wong's physical comedy, expressiveness and delivery, and it wasn't the same old topics, there was such a variety: feminism, Texas Instrument calculators, poop. Hard Knock Wife is next on my list (still pregnant!? It's all good, you should wait until you're ready). Go and watch this special so that Ali Wong can retire and become a house wife/genius... or actually don't...

Best pregnant comic in history (and a really great one even without that title).

Especially good humor for people between age of 18-35

Maybe it was just a killer performance as she is not that widely known but it made me laugh more than any other stand up ever.

The whole thing was like a movie plot with good writers behind it, which I'm not a critic so I don't care much about plots, but in this case it really helped it seem natural to deliver the jokes one after the other, not disjointed at all.

Just don't watch it with your parents ;)

I don't like women's stand ups because they are usually not funny. My husband watched first 10 minutes of this show and made me watch it with him. I'm glad I did, we laughed till we cried. I should probably say that My husband is American and i'm Russian so We understand the racial jokes we Also have 3 kids so we know how it is to be pregnant. I recommended this show to all my Russian friends and they loved it. So definitely worth your time.
