It's just a bit one-note and not particularly compelling or nuanced. No lasting harm to womanhood is done, no protests will occur and no grudges will be held. Maybe a touch holier-than-thou? Don't get me wrong, it's a comedy special not a speech to the United Nations. It felt a little bit like an hour of her desperately trying to prove what a cool girl she is putting other girls down. Most of her jokes seem to observe other women as the ones behaving absurdly with the implied premise that Iliza herself is an exception to this behavior. Finally it hit me why I didn't love it: laughing at ourselves is often the best medicine but in this special the jokes are structured in a way where it seems like Iliza is mostly laughing at "others". While I definitely chuckled at some things, I found myself kind of apathetic through most of it. It's important that we all be able to laugh at ourselves and this special certainly spends a lot of time pointing out all of the absurd things women tend to do, especially all of the over-the-top wedding related situations we put ourselves and our loved ones through. And she had a point!Īll in all, this Netflix comedy special was the perfect little detour for my weekend and I loved every minute of it.Don't get me wrong it's decent but not her best. Things like body negativity, shaming each other, false politeness, etc etc. My favorite part of the special was that although she was hilarious the entire time, Iliza put a lot of thought into this comedy special and dished dirt on some really terrible things that we do to each other. Needless to say, I almost burnt what I was cooking because I ended up paying attention to Iliza, haha! This special was over an hour, and I was cooking at the time. Some of the main topics she gravitated on were aging, marriage, dating, and pretty much everything in between. So what can you expect with Iliza Shlesinger? Funny faces, hilarious hashtags, and that awesome screech that she does! I love that she’s an equal opportunity offender, haha! HI-LAR-I-OUS! This special was amazing! This was my first time watching an Iliza Shlesinger special, and I was blown away!Īs always, Iliza is unapologetic as she dishes dirt on everyone. She discusses the required preparations as a woman, long-standing traditions as garters and veils, and the horror that is a bachelorette party. In this Netflix stand-up special, newly wed Iliza Shlesinger, investigates marriage and its traditions. From the first clip, I was hooked! Anywho, let’s get into this review before I blab you into oblivion. So for my first comedy special review, what better comedian is there other than the hilarious Iliza Shlesinger in her Unveiled Netflix special?įun fact, I discovered Iliza Shlesinger through YouTube, as I do with most comedians. I tend to get really serious a lot of the time, so when I feel like I’m being too much of a grown up, I put on something funny to lighten the mood.Īt work I’ll be stressing, then I’ll reach a point where I tell myself ‘You know what, I’m putting some comedy on.’ And it always cheers me right up.

Comedy is hard to rate when we all have different tastes. Oh, and there will be no ratings, just simply if I enjoyed it or not. I’ll keep it simple with these reviews and just go over some things I liked/didn’t like.

Keep in mind, I’m not expert on comedy, I just love sharing things that I watch. Surprise, surprise, I’m switching things up!Īs a slight variation from my movie, book, and show reviews, I’d also like to start doing reviews of comedy specials.
