You are cordially invited to the most hilarious party of the year.

After another tumultuous year, the women of Yearly Departed invite you to reflect, rejoice, and raise a glass (or several) to everything we're leaving in the past, capped off by a special performance by Grammy-winning pop star Alessia Cara. So kick off your heels and let Yvonne and friends ring in the new year as only they know how: By having a good time.

    Even worse than the 2020 review

    Not sure what else to say. Last years review was bad, unlike 2021 transition in where we had much the same, this one got worse, which is hard to believe that was possible.

    A 2 rating if we're generous!

    What a waste of time. Trying to find non political just funny humor is no longer available. Poor taste or rather bad taste. No humor without politics or vulgarity. Real humor is lacking and after Yearly Departed Iam happy to turn the page of these shows and don't let the door hit you.

    Funny women rule!

    F those guys who don't know that women are funny. Laughed out loud 9ver and over. Maybe the 1 star reviews are guys who just don't like to use their brains. Better than the first one .

    Desperately trying to be funny/irreverent.

    So much potential, embarrassingly little payoff.

    The credit "blooper" bits at the end are slightly more entertaining- just jump to those if you must watch.

    Just not as funny as it could have been.

    Many missed opps. NOT FUNNY - just stupid. I reallynwish there had been some better known comedians. Jane Fonda was the highlight - and that is just sad. Last year was - meh - this ywar was just not worth the 60ish minutes of my life I'll never get back.
