Ali Wong: Baby Cobra

release year: 2017
genre: live stand-up comedy show
viewing setting: home DVD, 11/29/21

synopsis: This is her first Netflix comedy show.

impressions: I hadn't watched too much live comedy since the 1980s heyday of George Carlin, Eddie Murphy, Robin Williams, etc but this was new and refreshing. She focuses on her sordid past, trapping a husband, the lives of housewives, and Asian family quirks among other things. This is funny as hell, for those who can handle hard "R" comedy.

final word: Great often-crude comedy; I'd like to see more.
