Do the documentary makers not think women are funny?
Missing!
I'm sorry but where was Eddie Murphy in this. He did 2 of the greatest stand up videos of the 80s if not of all time that I show to my kids as a rite of passage when they hit puberty and like Pryor he broke racial and PC boundaries and not even mentioned in this show! Travesty! Seeing a different side of comedians was truly interesting and hearing about the narcissism aspect from Amy Schumer was one of the only resonating factors to show true insight and as per usual female comedians as with other minorities totally underrepresented (Joan Rivers dead but could have been mentioned) and just to confirm I am a WASP. And where was Louis CK. Maybe he asked for too much money. Not sure how all these comedians were procured but some of the greats not evident which was a disappointment but on a positive note they did show some Poms and Aussies.
