Kathleen Madigan: Hunting Bigfoot

I look forward to Kathleen's podcast every week, and was so happy when her latest special came out on Prime. Her comedy is a pleasure to watch, and my bestie is convinced they could be sisters. Her genius is cultivating an aura of personable humor that makes you feel like you're having a spontaneous conversation with a friendly stranger at a local watering hole. I look forward to more jokes about her parents, weirdos from Missouri, aging politicians, and whatever else she encounters when she's on the road, reviewing the news, playing golf, searching for aliens, or hunting for bigfoot. Well done!

I have he of her but have never realized how funny she is. Very funny using situational comedy about her life and observations she makes you giggle and laugh out loud with every line delivered.

On balance a very good show without ever having to stoop to sex or cruelty which is always a tell tale sight they are a class act. Big foot doesn't come around until the final gag but it's worth the wait. You won't be sorry watching this. Makes me want to find out where I can steam her other specials. Or perhaps if she was in other sit coms or films. It a pleasure to watch such a show without having to sink to the depths of gross humor.

What the actual fuuu?! I sincerely hope whomever set up her microphone stand was immediately fired!!! Wow! This is a comedy special, not some 12:30am set at Joe's bar in Sheboygan! She tried, unsuccessfully, to fix it herself at the beginning, but she gets paid to tell jokes, not to work as a roadie. Why did no one immediately go out there to adjust the mic stand? It blocked half her face! The incompetence is unfathomable! She should be pretty POed at this BS.

However, Kathleen was a trooper and went through with her show and was pretty funny. She deserved better than the ridiculous microphone set up she had. When she was younger I thought her comedy was pretty hilarious, then she went through a little phase of so so, now she's back with the funny. Her show was very enjoyable.....except for the stupid microphone stand situation that was not her fault.

I love that, watching a Kathleen Madigan special, you kind of know what you're in for, but still, you are surprised and get so much more. Lots of little stories about her family are easily the highlight of this special for me. But also some great material on growing up in the Ozarks and what life is like there and also able to touch on politics without being divisive. Instead, pointing out the inanity of it all. If you're a reasonable person that isn't a die-hard cult member of either side, you can really appreciate what she's saying and find it hilarious. But stop wasting your time reading reviews like mine. Just watch the special.

Like a lot of older people, Kathleen Madigan thinks every young person is a Millenial. In 2023, Millenials are between 27 and 42 years old. The young people she is describing are Gen Z. Even though I like her humor and the show was good, Kathleen has now become part of one of her own jokes. I do like her stories about some of the crackerland places she visits. If you've never been to a backa$$, redneck, small town - she does get this right. They are real. Would love to me her parents someday, they sound like they'd be a ton of fun at a cocktail party. Would love to see more comedy specials with Kathleen. As it is, I am driven to watching all her specials as repeats.
