Taylor Tomlinson: Look at You

Taylor Tomlinson, for the most part, is a funny comedian. There is nothing special about this special, but it did make me chuckle a few times. And it is not a bad way to spend an hour.

One of the most enjoyable, smart, deep, and thought-provoking stand-up specials I've seen in years. Those last three adjectives probably don't seem fitting for comedy, but that's what makes this special so unique. "Brava" for tackling sensitive issues in such an honest, selfless, and truly funny way. I enjoyed the heck out of this.

There's this stereotype that females are not good at stand-up.

Also lately other female comics become intensionally vulgar for no reason. Maybe to be taken as edgy and progressive , i guess. I dont know whats with that! ( yeah Im looking at you Wong)

But, I know Taylor is a hell of a good Comedian and she proved it for a second time on Netflix. She doesn't get vulgar if it's not beneficial for the story. She touches on some important issues in a funny and original way by connecting the whole material together and it works.

It does get a bit dark at times but she's a master at relieving the pressure and bring you right back up.

As a male watching this special of course Im not gonna get 100% of it and sure I'm not gonna be happy to hear an opposite POV that doesn't put my sex in the best light. That doesn't mean the stand up is bad. It means you get offended too easily.

Absolutely loved this special - way better than I anticipated. It's just a real conversation, with a comedic spin. It's finding a way to find an upside in the midst of hardships and learning to laugh at yourself.

It's a conversation about things that some people might consider "deep" or "heavy," but these are topics that so many people deal with daily.

Love it. Hope to see more!

I'm so happy for Taylor! She so deserves a Netflix special. It's been real great watching her grow and understand herself. Her comedy has evolved admirably and as an individual has grown wonderfully from her guest appearance on Your Moms House to Good For You.
