Stand Out: An LGBTQ+ Celebration

This isn't funny or inspiring. As a 56 year old gay male I find most of these views to be stagnant and stereotyping. Which is very counter productive to progress.

I've also noted how there use to be dozens of mediocre reviews for this "special" but they have all been reported and removed because they call out for how that viewer feels it is. Just another wokeness run amuk and trying to force their view and theirs alone as the correct view or perception.

Overall I enjoyed it. There was a couple not so funny people. The main thing I wanted to say here is why did they keep saying it was the first show of its kind when in 1993 and 94 there was Out There 1 and 2!

I am not gay, trans, bi or anything else other than just a boring, straight white guy. I initially decided to watch this because I love Tig and Wanda Sykes but then I got REALLY excited to see Todd Glass, James Adomian and Fortune Feimster on stage. WHat a disappointment that they couldn't somehow make this longer and include their sets.

Overall the show was really good and Eddie Izzard did a fantastic job of setting up a very funny ending line.

When your criteria is based on sexual preference first and talent second, this is the result. This was the moment to showcase relevent, brilliant comics that are also LGBTQ+, not LGBTQ+ mediocre-at-best comics. So many comics were missing that could have made this nothing short of genius.

The material was just so weak, I found myself cringing almost all the way through. There were a couple of laughs here and there, but otherwise it was just a painful experience. Would not recommend.
