Sarah Cooper: Everything's Fine

Have you ever wondered what they were thinking when they watched the takes during production? It seems they didn't, as surely they wouldn't have gone on. I would ask for those 50 minutes of my life back, but the whole year has been a total loss anyway.

Funny and weird with really amazing celebrity cameos. Really good (unless you're a trump fan)

A lot of people are saying Sarah Cooper is very funny, folks. A lot of people. I wish I could tell you how many. It's a very big number. Probably the biggest number since Abraham Lincoln. Listen, I know all about big numbers. I really do. My uncle was a nuclear astronaut. I have big, burly men, truck drivers, come up to me all the time, tears streaming down their faces, asking me if that was really Helen Mirren and Aubrey Plaza. And I tell them, yes, yes, it was. And only I could tell them that. Obama never did. Only me, folks. Only me.

If you are a fan of absurdist comedy, then you will enjoy Sarah Cooper: Everything's Fine. A fictional morning show allows her to provide short segments of 2020 humor that includes irrational and absurd situations which actually occurred and said by the president at the time. Topics included satires of COVID vaccine, Karens, QAnon with segments of the lip syncing that Sarah was known for: the president saying the most bizarre things made tolerable because she is doing the voice. Especially ironic is Sarah as DJT and Helen Mirren as Billy Bush in the Access Hollywood tape. Watching this makes you really wonder how any woman can support that party.

The fact that there was so discernible plot with this fictionalized version of Sarah Cooper made this really difficult to watch. The cameos were mostly hit or miss, and felt gratuitous and not well thought-out. Sarah's bit with Helen Mirren was IMPECCABLE and the reason why I rated this so high. The special is worth watching just for that bit and how perfectly unsettling it is.
