Wanda at Large

I didn't know who Wanda Sykes even was until I saw the commercials for Wanda at Large. And I was put off by her put-down comments. Somehow, I saw the second episode and enjoyed it very much. Her edgy comments make more sense in the context of the story line. The supporting cast is pretty funny and the Washington, DC location is a nice change. Also, you get the impression Wanda would be a good friend and one with no illusions about people. You can't see her becoming bitter. I thought the segment about reparations to African-Americans was pretty inventive. Usually, male comedians touch on such issues. So, hats off to Wanda Sykes.

Just watched the pilot episode of Wanda at Large. I have never in my life laughed SO hard at a pilot episode of a sit-com! If the writing stays this fresh this show will be wildly successful!!

I love Wanda! There is no doubt that she is very very funny! I watched her on comedy central a lot and she was amazing and so funny, so I was very excited when I heard that she was getting her own show!

But her show is indeed "Wanda". It is the real deal, but It seems very watered down, possibly censored. Normally there is 2 or 3 VERY GOOD laughs in each episode that keep me coming back for the first season and I think that the supporting players need time to grow. They just fall in the background as of now.

So the second season should be something to look forward to!!!

I only recently "discovered" Wanda while watching "Inside the NFL" on HBO. I was disappointed on the weeks she didn't have a segment because her wit is so sarcastic and hilarious, that, in my opinion, it made the whole show. When I found out she was starring in her own sitcom, I was thrilled. I also was NOT disappointed.

I watched the pilot this week and found myself laughing out loud all the way through it. I really hope it does well and continues for a long time. It certainly made my week. WATCH THIS SHOW!

I have adored Wanda since I saw her stand-up special on comedy central. She is one of the most talented commedians I have seen in a long time. Since I follow her I was in heaven when she got her show, which is wonderful. My family and I have already made it part of our routine and cannot wait for it to come back next year. It's good to see a decent sitcom come from the "reality tv network".
