Christina's comedy special was not without its funny moments but it's clear Christina is an advocate of the 'Nothing is out of bounds' for comedy objectives, and to a degree I think that probably is the case, but that doesn't mean all topics are great for comedy, or that an average comedian can pull a laugh out of a taboo subject and not fall flat on their face, and there's a few pristine examples of that here.
Mental illness is a tough one to find the right tone on to mock, and Christina's love of the school yard obvious hung her by the neck here, her Dick Clark piece came across like teenage bullies picking on the deformed kid behind the bike sheds.
and there was plenty more where that came from.
While pretending to be the thinking caring persons champion she regularly took the exact opposite position to demonise the underdog and hammer home a rhetoric point.
I didn't hate her but I thought she let herself down on many occasions. Comedy can and should be risky, but it shouldn't be stupid about it.
