Christina P: Mom Genes

I was excited to see a female comedian, and she missed the mark big time. Making fun of people with life threatening allergies, just not funny. Even her delivery about giving birth were missing a solid punchline. No wonder Netflix stock is tanking-get better content, this is trash!

Save your free time and watch paint dry instead of this garbage.

Have been a HUGE mommy for the past 5-6 years now. I grew up with my favorite comedians being bill burr, Bert khristna, Kevin hart, kat williams, Dave chapelle, Louis C. K. (Even named my dog after him before all that stuff happened, but was quickly changed) Eddie Murphy, Chris rock, and of course my favorite of all time Tom Segura. These people truly formed my sense of humor and were a huge impact of who I am today. LOVE Christina on the pod but this I've ever watched lmao. OH GOD I already think she sounds like my god d*mn mother on the podcast every week I don't want to hear more of it lmao. Jesus CHRIST this is my mom going on stage and doing stand up like word for word this is the exact stuff my mother complains about on a daily basis. So if ya wanna hear your mother rant for a solid hour than this the special for you!! Solid watch.

Unfortunately, it's simply not funny.

In stand up, making fun of others works only when it's actually funny. Here, it feels like she is saying things for lukewarm shock value, but it simply doesn't make you laugh.

I love YMH and have watched all of Christina specials, this is the worst one yet. She goes on about how toxic her parents are/were without the slightest realization she's just as toxic. Makes jokes about nut allergies, people being poor, etc. She's just punching down. It's not clever, it's not well written, and most importantly for a comedy special, it's not funny. I still love the podcast but I think this is the last Christina P special I will be watching.

Christina P is one of those comedians I like because it doesn't feel like you're watching stand up, it's more like just listening to an eccentric friend of yours. Just seems like a fun person to be around, and listening to her and Tom segura's podcast makes me believe that even more. Listening to her talk about her dad and growing up in this special also just makes it make even more sense. I would buy tickets to his stand up special too. I don't know if this is her best work but it is my favorite and I think that's owing to knowing her more after watching her in "Your mum's house" or "Where your moms at?". I think she's definitely better in her podcasts than when she's doing stand up though. I wasn't really a big fan of her shows until I started listening to those. She's naturally funny and witty in her podcasts while it feels like she's trying hard to be funny in her specials, but I kinda like this one. She's the person she is on stage she is in real life and I think that's great. I wouldn't say she says the wildest things but she does say whatever she wants to and I like that and her and Tom's relationship. She's a funny person in 'real life' but that doesn't seem to fully translate into her stand up specials.
