I'm probably a psycho, weirdo, loner or whatever but I enjoyed this. Maria Bamford's comedy focuses on mental health issues so it's probably an acquired taste anyway and I don't think the humour could work unless you can associate with the 'stream of thought' she's in.
The show goes from her performing her routine alone in the mirror to a full theater audience (well partially), which made me feel like I shared a personal journey, well sort of, not sure if that was the intention - or if it matters really. I'm also a fan of 'Lady Dynamite' too so that may influence my opinion.
Ten years ago Christopher Hitchins famously said women 'aren't funny' but don't think he'd seen Maria Bamford perform.
