    If you're an on-and-off fan, don't watch this.

    I was an on-and-off fan of Maria Bamford; she scared me and made me laugh, that was the intrigue. And I love surreal humor...so for the most part, I liked her. This special, however, was too much. She does a lot of rambling, a lot of voices, a lot of faces/noises...and being a big kid, I like faces/noises, but in this one it just seems like a load of everything dumped on the floor all at once. Maybe it's also Netflix's hour limit, she felt like she had to get it all in, but excuses aside, I really felt like turning it off. I stuck it out though, and the ending wasn't too thrilling either.

    If you're on-the-fence about Maria, don't watch this because you'll probably end up not liking her, which would be a shame; she is pretty funny, but just not in this special.

    she is unfunny

    Wow! Not only is she not funny, her "comedy" is just gross. Don't take my word for it, watch it yourself. As a matter of fact, see how long you can last before turning it off. I saw the reviews but gave her the benefit of the doubt and watched it myself. All I can say is, if talking about your genitals and being black out drunk were an Olympic sport, her last name would be Jenner.

    I freaking love Maria Bamford

    This comedy special is rapid fire, bizarre, so relatable, entertaining, refreshing and wonderfully weird. Maria Bamford has an amazing gift for smart quirky comedy and impressions She can whip from one topic to another with amazing speed and intelligence. It doesn't let up for even a second and it is a wildly entertaining ride! Maria Bamford speaks right to my soul. Go watch it right now!

    Hit and Miss....Mainly Hits.

    Old Baby is an interesting way to watch a stand-up routine. There are moments when her bits don't land with me....or the audience, however, it's surprisingly fun to watch her relish those awkward moments.

    I had a smile on my face throughout most of this special and there were multiple times where I was laughing, pretty uncontrollably.

    It's not for everyone however, it is for me.

    Definitely not funny

    Literally just not funny. She never made a joke the entire special. She'll just stands on the stage and says weird stuff the entire time.

    Very low quality "entertainment".

    Would not recommend.
