Tig Notaro: Hello Again

I like Tig notaro. She's funny, quick witty, with an impeccable timing. I enjoyed this special until the last part. The piano part. She's great at dragging stories forever and they become even funnier by the ridiculousness of the whole situation ( like the famous barstool or Taylor Dayne) but this time it isn't funny. It's plain boring and uninteresting and to be sincere it feels basic. The first part of the show is great, dynamic, with unexpected twists but once she reaches the piano it's all down hill. Just my opinion. I still follow her on her podcast (Handsome podcast) which is hilarious.

If you love Tig Notaro, you will love this. It was such a pleasure to hang out with her and watch her talk for an hour. Highly recommend. If you don't know her, give it a chance. It's a different style than the typical comedy show, very deadpan and observational, a lot of storytelling. It's not the typical format of joke, set up, joke, joke.. Don't go into it expecting that. It's not going to be old style in that way. And that's what I love about her style. It's more of a conversation. I always appreciate any piece of art that Tig puts out. I appreciate her worldview, her compassion, and her ability to laugh at even hard subjects.

I had previously seen Tig Notaro in the late night TV circuit or whatever, couldn't recall, but said I'd try it, in need of a lesbian spin on wit. Nothing of the sort happened here, except in promise, before spiralling down to name-dropping privilege: Oprah is literally the final word of the show. A story on what she once misheard in Reese Withered Spoon's office establishes Tig's privilege: would we really care for a story whose ramifications are not beyond our everyday horizon if name-dropping would not separate us common folk at the same time it traps us to the way Tig plays the lesbian card as commonsensical commonness - don't be put off by the fact of namedropping, I am one of you in my comical failings! But the obnoxious truth is, as Oprah is elevated center-field at the end, as the self-righteous sun of America she always is, Tig Notaro slips into her privileged orbit seamlessly, to a sold-out, or sell-out, depending on how celebrity bends your present, theater audience.

Really enjoyed this hour. I didn't know her, and didn't recognize she was in the Morning Show me: Tig Notaro was really fun in her comedy special Hello again. Loved her storytelling about her sons and being a parent. Her observational humor and finding funny in normal life really was delightful.

I loved Trig's Commander Jett Reno character in Star Trek: Discovery, so my expectations were high when I watched this. I sat patiently, waiting for her to be funny and had to conclude that the laughter of the audience was due to the expectation that all things 'non-binary' must be appreciated and applauded. Trig bears no relationship to Jett Reno, that could be because others have written the material so it was easy to build a context in which Trig's deadpan approach to life could be appreciated. Standing on that stage, relaying one medical incident after another was painful to watch and I was waiting for something to be funny - nothing was. I really wanted it to be funny; I was waiting for it to become funny; I love deadpan humour - it never did. I felt the audience only found it funny because they didn't want to be cancelled in this world where diversity is so much more important than meritocracy. Trig used every diversity hook in the book, but nothing gelled; nothing was really funny. I can't wait to see Trig as Reno in the next series of Discovery but I won't be indulging in any more stand up.

There are only a few stand-up comedy shows a year that get my attention... Tig's unique brand of humour is a breath of fresh air amongst an endless stream of crass, loud, vulgur, reach for the low-hanging fruit type of comedians. I love the slow pace and build up to her humorous storytelling, which leaves me smiling and chuckling the whole way through. Honestly, she is so talented and has clearly honed her skills in the art of stand-up comedy. I wish there were more people like her that were brave enough to authentically relate the humour in their life's journey. No need to resort to vulgarity, shock value or a constant need to offend other people. Just simple and honest sharing, with an original twist on observational humour. I absolutely loved this comedy special and highly recommend it! Thanks for the laughs and smiles, Tig! :)

Long day on the planet and was in need of a laugh. Showered, grabbed a beer and snuggled in with my pup. Fired up the Amazon Fire Cube (Gen. 1) ***not sponsored, but open to offers*** and the 1st thing I see is a brand new TIG NOTARO special??!?!!? The comedy gods were INDEED smiling upon me. Tig= Cancer survivor. Wife. Mother (or whatever) of two. Voice of an angel. Can play the piano. Very sharp, brilliantly deadpan and patiently delivered. Her new set is like a roast in a crock pot, pleasing to the senses as it cooks & filled with mouthwatering anticipation for the next morsel. And her name is Tig.
