Can never get that time back

She used to be funny but this "special" is beyond awful. I was at one point embarrassed for this young lady as it was so unfunny and at times very awkward. She has had shows that were funny but this is not one of those. If you want to watch a good comedy special SKIP this one because that is time you'll never get back!!

Poor Effort

This was painful to watch. Save yourself the time and don't bother watching this train wreck (that lame pun was better than anything in this special). I have never been a big fan of Amy but she was better when she was stealing other people's jokes. Maybe she should search some old comedy tapes for new material. 1 star is generous for this slop.

Edit: Apparently, she included bits that she copied from Dave Attell and Dave Chappelle in her Leather Special. She is a chronic offender. Even that wasn't enough to save her act.

Swing and a miss!

I enjoyed her shows before, but Schumer was neither funny nor insightful in this special. A huge swing and a miss. With the exception of the gun riff, she relied on old material focused mainly on her smelly body parts. Maybe that is why none of the big premier pay channels picked up this special. Netflix will have to do better in the future choosing streaming material.

Ah Amy....

Jaysus that was awful. I've sat through some pretty bad comedy before, on screen and in person, just to find the few nuggets of gold scattered throughout it, something to laugh along with. There was nothing here. Not a thing.

Time to rethink the direction you're going in Amy, unless you want to only cater for a tiny minority of people who both agree with you and enjoy seeing these things mocked. And that number is getting smaller every year.

It made me embarrassed for her

You know how when you see a show and it's so bad, it makes you squirm and feel embarrassed for the actor? I used to get laughs from her material, but this is just crude and boring. All of the material is really stale and has been used by Comedians for generations. If I have to see a sweaty fat person in a leather jumper, I'd rather it be a hairy drag queen- they would be more attractive. I'm not sure if she took a page out of Andrew Dice's playbook, but it's the same kind of vulgar and immature "comedy".
