Baroness Von Sketch Show

The skits are quite clever and I suspect the reason some people are rating it low is that they don't understand the topic in the skit. Some of the humor is subtle or carries a subtext that some people are missing I think. Most of them are quite good, some are hilarious and it's worth putting in time on them to "get it. "

If you're looking for some bubble-gum pop-comedy that runs a Laugh-Reel in order for you to know when to laugh, then this show is not for you.

But if you're in the mood for GREAT CREATIVE SHOW that has a numerous hit-after-hit of one liner sketches that are completely hilarious.

Also American, maybe it's a cultural thing, but I think it's absolutely HILARIOUS and you should give at least one show a chance.

You won't regret It

Finally we have a show that we can just watch for fun and don't have to follow any plot or drama. These ladies are hilarious and brilliant in how they can become different characters in scene after scene. You never know what to expect from each one but you can guarantee that you're gonna laugh.

I'm a big fan of Portlandia, so when my friend described what the Baroness Von Sketch Show was like, I decided to give it a chance. My first episode was S2:E1 and I nearly peed myself at the first sketch. Perhaps I share the same sense of humour as these women, but I find them incredibly funny and likeable and find their writing to be very relevant! They love themselves, love women, and are not afraid to look ridiculous - so try to relax and appreciate what they are doing with this show.

I wonder how many of the negative reviewers have ever watched Monty Python's Flying Circus, the original TV show? 80% of the sketches were "meh" or worse, but it was the monster hits that everyone remembers and defines the show. Make no mistake, Baroness has a lot of those take-it-or-leave-it sketches, but it too has sketches so incredibly funny that I've had to walk out of the room to catch my breath and grab a kleenex or two (the gym locker sketch comes immediately to mind for me).

I'm a guy, so I don't "get" all the sketches, such as the "garment of freedom" - my wife had to explain that pockets just aren't a part of women's fashion - but more often than not I'm laughing anyhow as the delivery by the whole cast is excellent.
