Nikki Glaser: Someday You'll Die

Yes, she's dirty and she talks about things that might make people uncomfortable.. especially conformists/conventional people. She touched on so many things that I agree with. Her thoughts about parenthood/motherhood are hysterical and spot on. I think a lot of these bad reviews are from offended parents. Normally, I'm not a fan of female comics, but I feel like she's unusually genuine. If someone doesn't like all the adult subject matter.. I get it. I just feel like she's comfortable and honest on stage and it translates, for me....... I just love her, and find her to be insightful and so very funny.

First of all, while this is extreme, explicit content which usually it turns me off, I was way more blown away by the what almost 2 hour monologue flawlessly delivered, with so much energy, by Nikki. Turning despair into joy and laughter, the laughter literally gave me a workout!! I was invigorated, my gut got a half hr at the gym, and so did my spirit.

It is unmistakable that Nikki is a superstar on every level. So beautiful to look at, but sort of a disarming beauty, such a smart and fun person. The kind of show that's perfect to watch for fully developed humans/adults. Remarkable performance by an actress/comedian you can tell could do anything. I recommend this very highly if you can stomach the dirt, which is really just the reality we all live, so live a little and go watch Someday You'll Die! ;p.

Without giving away a ton, the title is meant to be optimistic. Got to appreciate comedians/comediennes and people in general who look for taboos, and some of those who knowingly tweak them.

For a while, I tried to figure out if the lighting for her stage backdrop was color coding the trigger warning sections of her set.

My wife watches awards shows, and she will watch the upcoming Golden Globes which Nikki will host. I'm pretty sure that will be filtered down to only show side Globes and lower Globe jokes....and she will probably do a decent attack-dog imitation a la Ricky Gervais.

For this set, the death stuff to me is kind of funny, but I'm not her mother. And Nikki at 39, going on 27 may still go through a mental change along with the physical change in a few decades. If not,there's a clip from this that will be aired a lot.

The anti-breeder stuff, I totally get but I am curious if in real life she feels the full-court press on not having kids. I know so many women without kids and if they are fending off attacks on that choice, I need to be edu-ma-cated. Or edu-pa-cated or sum thang.

Anyways, I laughed probably more than my wife, but she got through this fine. Although I think in contrast it raised her opinion of the Nate Bargatze special we watched on New Years. My wife, and myself honestly, do prefer more observational and/or humor on us zany humans/Americans/etc in general.

Glaser definitely has a self-centered mirror mirror on the wall, with a hope to appall. But definitely thought-provoking some of the time, the whole mmmmm-mmmm-mom bit.

Bottom line even by today's standards, it's pretty crude in spots. So if your standards were set in the last millennium, please do not watch this. Or mention Nikki to your priest, imam or rabbi. Hmmm, perhaps Nikki could use all three in her porn-related set.

Anyways, like an old Star Trek monster, be careful with this, your repulsion only makes her stronger ;>

It's not a comedian's job to be sensitive. However, it felt like in this comedy special, she went for the low blow of shock to make people laugh, and even so the audience response wasn't great.

I found her abortion comments distasteful to say the least. If I were a woman actively struggling to have kids, those comments would be even worse. Of course it was hyperbolic, but it still seemed too far to verbalize at all.

I understand that comedy is an outlet to examine the self, and it is a career that has to make a living. Just...maybe not all stuff that comes to mind should be written into your set.

Look, Haters gonna hate, Conservatives gonna hate, People with a bit of logic gonna love. I cried, I laughed, I had tears in my eyes in the end, it was the best rollercoaster I've ridden in a while now.

Nikki is great and deserve more success than she already has. I've enjoyed every second of the show. Those who hate this kind of comedy are going to die very disappointed one day, I feel sorry for them, maybe not.

I wish Nikki will do more stand ups or movies soon, I would be first in line to watch them.

My 2 cents: watch it more than 1 time, you gonna discover more gems that you missed in the first time you've watch it.
