Wanda Rocks!!

After practically stealing MONSTER-IN-LAW from Jane Fonda, Wanda Sykes proves she has what it takes to command the stage in this extremely funny comedy special that covered everything from politics, to sex to fan obsession. I loved her being indignant in learning that a fan had named their dog after her or when the stewardess insisted that the young boy traveling by himself be seated next to her. Wanda has flawless timing and made this one of the most entertaining hours of standup to come down the pike on HBO in quite awhile.

This show was HILARIOUS. I stumbled upon it on HBO "On Demand". I sat back and laughed for 55 straight minutes. No topic was left unturned - from gay marriage, to Bush, to porn, to female anatomy, to sex in her 40's, to men, dogs, swimming with dolphins (!!), prejudices, and more, all delivered in her hysterical made-for-comedy voice. The last bit, about "I'm old and I don't give a f-ck", was just plain genious. I loved her in Curb Your Enthusiasm, and Monster in Law (less so in her own show, but I don't think regular network TV can do her justice). Go Wanda!

I watched it again last night and it was just as funny the first time. I love the whole thing about the detachable p***y. Just hysterical!
