Kathleen Madigan: Hunting Bigfoot

I had my calendar cleared for the day Hunting Bigfoot premiered. I was so excited and was not disappointed. Kathleen Madigan is one of the few comedians my very diverse family can all enjoy together and laugh instead of getting offended. Even while making jokes about millennials, she talks about them with a kind of respect that doesn't make anyone feel like they got thrown under the bus. Her perspective on current affairs are the best ( I love her podcast!), but as always, the stories about her family are my favourite. If you like stand up comedy, do yourself a favor and check out Hunting Bigfoot or any one of her specials.

So Maddie is back and I couldn't be happier. Mama Termite (Check out Madigan's Pubcast on YouTube) is back from COVID lockdown and in fine form. She hits the high points of lowbrow observations on life in this America. She takes on the oldsters and the millennials, from the backwoods to Florida and back again keeping you laughing about it all.

If you've never seen Kathleen Madigan perform her unique and side-splitting brand of comedy, you're in for a treat. Check out her other specials as well; Bothering Jesus, Madigan Again, Gone Madigan, In Others Words. They are hilarious, insightful, and worth an hour any time.

I have he of her but have never realized how funny she is. Very funny using situational comedy about her life and observations she makes you giggle and laugh out loud with every line delivered.

On balance a very good show without ever having to stoop to sex or cruelty which is always a tell tale sight they are a class act. Big foot doesn't come around until the final gag but it's worth the wait. You won't be sorry watching this. Makes me want to find out where I can steam her other specials. Or perhaps if she was in other sit coms or films. It a pleasure to watch such a show without having to sink to the depths of gross humor.

Like a lot of older people, Kathleen Madigan thinks every young person is a Millenial. In 2023, Millenials are between 27 and 42 years old. The young people she is describing are Gen Z. Even though I like her humor and the show was good, Kathleen has now become part of one of her own jokes. I do like her stories about some of the crackerland places she visits. If you've never been to a backa$$, redneck, small town - she does get this right. They are real. Would love to me her parents someday, they sound like they'd be a ton of fun at a cocktail party. Would love to see more comedy specials with Kathleen. As it is, I am driven to watching all her specials as repeats.

I love that, watching a Kathleen Madigan special, you kind of know what you're in for, but still, you are surprised and get so much more. Lots of little stories about her family are easily the highlight of this special for me. But also some great material on growing up in the Ozarks and what life is like there and also able to touch on politics without being divisive. Instead, pointing out the inanity of it all. If you're a reasonable person that isn't a die-hard cult member of either side, you can really appreciate what she's saying and find it hilarious. But stop wasting your time reading reviews like mine. Just watch the special.
