A gallows humor wake

Sarah absolutely jerks you from cute family story to heartfelt, sentimental memories, to deep, dark gallows humor, then randomly hits each note like a bop-it. As someone with a fairly comparable age and story of loss, it hit like a brick, then made me cackle in the darkest of ways. A memorable laugh/cry for sure.I'm sure it's a miss for some, but I am just personally an absolute bullseye of a target audience on this one. It is pure catharsis. It will challenge what you find funny and you'll probably think it's weird that a stand up comic is making you cry, be it for sympathy or empathy. Enjoy!!

A special for those of us who've been through it

I'm guessing the low-star reviews are due to people who cannot relate (so I guess "congratulations" to them). As someone who sat with my father (and best friend) in his final days and have lost more folks than I care to name, this was funny, heart-warming and hit all those spots that someone who has experienced the loss of parent(s) needs. Maybe this isn't the raw sort of show we've come to expect from Sarah but it is pretty damn impressive that she's "laughing while orphaned" a state few people can find in the same situation. In my opinion this was exactly the show I hoped it would be and I definitely shed some happy tears during the final credits.

It just wasn't funny

I actually like Sarah Silverman as a comic and feel about my reaction to this comedy special, but it's just not good, no matter how hard I try to find a positive.Most of the stand-up is about the late loss of her father, with whom she obviously had a great relationship. That being said, this felt more like a eulogy than a stand-up special and a lot of it was quite sad, which is exactly what I hoped to avoid going into a stand-up.Apart from being sad, there are long build-ups throughout with no punches, and a lot of jokes that feel like "insider" jokes that would have meant more for family or close friends. Overall, it just wasn't a good time.The live audience was very generous in its laughs and applause.
