Tuesday's Trash

The Plot:

Tuesday Thomas, The "Freak Momma" performs to her tribe. As seen on many TV spots and at random fountains talking to pigeons, Tuesday Thomas is a unique voice in the comedy world. She shares her truth and helps heal through her unapologetically self and humor. A Must See of the dark, yet hilarious side of the outsider.

If you can raise the scratch to make a professional video, you're not an outsider, no matter what you may think or want to project.

The problem with this video -- which was apparently made for five thousand dollars -- is that it's just not funny. Just about every gag and joke fall flat making it a bore to watch.

While I had indeed never heard about this 2024 stand-up comedy show titled "Tuesday's Trash", nor actually ever heard about Tuesday Thomas, then I still opted to give the show a fair chance, on account of it being something I hadn't already seen.

I can't claim that this 2024 stand-up show particularly tickled me in the right places. I just didn't find Tuesday Thomas the least bit funny. In fact, I wasn't brought to a single laugh throughout the course of the 47 minutes the show ran for.

There was a lot of below-the-belt material, which I personally don't really find funny, as it was overdone in the 1990s and just has grown stale. I prefer comedy with a tad more contents and intellect to it.

This was an amateurish production, which felt home-made with someone's dad's old VCR cam-recorder. And it was filmed on the roof of some building, talk about a lack of a proper stage to perform on. And the audience had like 23 people in it, which were most like either Tuesday Thomas's friends, or random people they paid to sit through the rooftop show. Some people in the audience even wore animal masks.

My rating of "Tuesday's Trash" lands on a two out of ten stars.

Tuesday uses her gift of storytelling, her sharp wit, plus a bodega roof top in the middle of Los Angeles to do what she does best; make us laugh. Relatable, self deprecating, and filthy only begins to describe why this is my brand of comedy. Tuesday truly is the Queen of the Freaks, the underdogs, and an absolute punk rock glamazon who will go down in comedy history.
