source: Taylor Tomlinson: Look at You

This kind of came across like a spoilt affluent young woman, whose dad bullied Netflix into giving her a special . Her material and premises were all pretty stale and hackneyed. I found her act and her delivery pretty grating. No doubt she'll appeal to some.

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 liked her first special because there were some genuinely humorous moments in that but there was something so grating and repetitive about this one; it made her just too hard to listen to. I think she'd do well to study famous female comedians and learn something about timing and delivery. She might also want to reconsider those white wedge sneaker/booties, too-just awful!

I HAVE bipolar disorder, and I found this special problematic in a number of ways. It did make me laugh a couple times, but I found it kinda boring and a bit offensive.

I give this a 8 simply because large parts of this show is amazing. All the psychology stuff, all the damaged I am taking drugs stuff is fantastic. It is not twisting your stomach dying from laughter funny, but it is so greatly done and so insightful and lovely that you can show this in therapy sessions. The less funny and not so great is all the standards from female comedians. Sex jokes, phallus jokes, boyfriends and relationships. Which I think is such a shame. Taylor is one of the most insightful, most intelligent and funny comedians in existence today and 80% of this proves that. So when she start talking about * for women, * and similar I lose a bit of interest. She is still funny, don't get me wrong, she is still better than 9/10 female comedians even when she goes mainstream standard, but when she is talking about therapy, dead relatives and dealing with life she is simply the best and I wish there was more of that. This is not the best comedy ever. I even think her last special was funnier, although that contained more of the standard stuff. But this is still, at least to 80%, amazing stuff that should be seen and listen to. I am absolutely convinced that 10-15 years from now Taylor will be hailed as the one of the greatest comedians of all time. She still have some minor bumps and hurdles to get over before she is there, but she will definitely get there. Fun, entertaining and in some parts fantastic. 8/10.

Other than that, hilarious as usual from Tomlinson. I thought that was enough, but here are some more characters to get this review submitted. Ok this is a review for a stand-up special. Not a lot i can say without spoilers. You either like it or you don't; and I did.

First because she is now a celebrity and talks too much about that. Way too much meta material, almost none in the first one. She is too into herself. Second because, like all stand ups, the material is much thinner. For the first one there was a development period of at least five years, but for this one only about one year, so much less substance and less testing time for it.

I loved her previous standup. I walked into this one smiling, and ultimately came out cringing. I support her with this material, but understand she's covered herself in a safety net with the PC crowd. No matter what the overall reaction to this, she's at least emboldened in their eyes. I feel she's sacrificed an opportunity with what essentially feels like an hour long cop out. I have a feeling that if she took the time and not fell back on an 'fire sale, everything goes' motif? She could've done a lot better. I'm looking forward to her next outing, because this definitely was a disheartening misfire.

Honestly I've never heard of Taylor Tomlinson before (oddly enough) but simply put I think I'm very picky when it comes to comedy and this was absolutely amazing. I laughed out loud several times and was really impressed by her thoughtfulness and how she tied all her subjects together.... I very highly recommend.
