Netflix

Surprisingly funny show. Meaning, that I expected it to be unfunny, but the little zig zags were great... "monacle for an amoeba". A little frenetic, but it's nice to see comedy that doesn't copy the usually stand up comedy delivery. I think the only thing that didn't work for me is when she gets real gutteral and caveman'esque... like manly... she's exerting herself for material that's not as funny as the rest of her material that isn't so forced.

I'd say 7/10, I'd rate it an 8 otherwise. Been watching Ilza for years, and she's always been clever, and snarky and funny.

Loved the ending street fight and the last joke was dead on... good job... curtain call doggy!!!!

Yeah, I'm with ya on the 7/10 rating. It was funny at parts, and im thankful that female comedians are not only getting better in the past 5-10 years, but getting more gigs and respect. I preferred War Paint over this one, but worth watching for sure. Twas a nice surprise to see it pop up on Netflix right at 12:01 AM on the 23rd, as I had just finished Morgan Murphy's special for the 2nd time and wanted another female standup special.
