Whitney Cummings: Can I Touch It?

A well done stand-up that touches on some modern issues in a unique and thoughful way. The sex robot thing was hilarious. Very clever to do that, made it fascinating and hilarious at the end.

I just wanna add that I've seen some other stand up's recent that touch on these modern gender issues and go way too far one way or the other but Whitney managed to make it seem pretty even, giving both sides of the issues an even amount of love and hate so that it didn't feel like she has picking on anyone.

Just wanna point out though, it would probably be a lot less acceptable if a male comic rubbed a female audience members hair and joked about her climaxing because of it. That was the one brief thing that bugged me but only because the topic was how to avoid sexual harassment and how men shouldn't touch women casually thinking its ok so that bit was definitely at odds with some of the message before it, but only a minor issues all and all.

If you're a fan of her you'll probably enjoy it, most people won't though. Filled with gender generalisations and lots of complaints hidden behind a comics smile the show was a boring mess packed with lazy jokes and overused topics.

Overall it's better than her previous works, she doesn't solely rely on bashing on men, but it still lacks the storytelling ability to make it relatable and enjoyable.

Maybe I'm too stupid for this show, but I couldn't tell when she was serious, and when she was joking.

Eventually I got bored and turned it off, when about 15 minutes remained of the program.

She sure seem to have had some horrible experiences with men. But it was just sad, the funny twists and punchline was rarely delivered, which made it feel like a life story rather than a stand-up show. Bad writing maybe, or maybe I just don't find it funny how bad some men apparantly act.

I am really big fan of Whitney and I really couldn't wait to watch this show, but it was really boring. I couldn't believe that someone funny like her is telling so stupid jokes. I hope next one is better.

Whitney is getting better all the time. I give this special 8/10......or 4 Brendan Schaub's 'You'd be Surprised', out of 10.
