Taylor Tomlinson: Look at You

Taylor Tomlinson's first special was one of my favourites of the last few years, and this second one is even better. Watching standup is usually such a passive viewing experience because it's hard to get into it when you've seen so many specials, but something about Tomlinson's standup is really engaging.

This is a very consistent hour of standup that touches on serious and dark subject matter without ever sacrificing the comedy. There's plenty of standup with serious sections that I like, but Tomlinson handles the heavy stuff in a way where no matter how dark it gets, it still remains funny, also while treating the subject matter tastefully and with respect.

Kind of a masterful balancing act, and even people who might not find her style of humour funny can surely respect that. And if you liked her first special, this is a must-watch.

Two for two as far as I'm concerned, so she honestly might well be one of the best comedians working today.

I'm a lot older than Taylor and I think she is a riot! She has women's issues down pat - no matter the age or race. She's just funny - and she has a great way of looking at life and the life of women.

Thank you, Taylor!

I'm so happy for Taylor! She so deserves a Netflix special. It's been real great watching her grow and understand herself. Her comedy has evolved admirably and as an individual has grown wonderfully from her guest appearance on Your Moms House to Good For You.

Absolutely loved this special - way better than I anticipated. It's just a real conversation, with a comedic spin. It's finding a way to find an upside in the midst of hardships and learning to laugh at yourself.

It's a conversation about things that some people might consider "deep" or "heavy," but these are topics that so many people deal with daily.

Love it. Hope to see more!

One of the most enjoyable, smart, deep, and thought-provoking stand-up specials I've seen in years. Those last three adjectives probably don't seem fitting for comedy, but that's what makes this special so unique. "Brava" for tackling sensitive issues in such an honest, selfless, and truly funny way. I enjoyed the heck out of this.
