Outstanding
mmoneta4 November 2017
I'm 61, and I've seen a lot of stand-up in my life. This was one of the funniest - totally in the top four.

I caught it on Netflix tonight, and was surprised I hadn't heard of Katherine Ryan before. Now I have to go see if she has additional programs. If not, I hope Netflix has the good sense to hunt down what's available and put it in their catalog.

Relax...

I've seen Katherine Ryan on 8 Out Of 10 Cats and clips on Youtube, but this is the first full length special for me. It was very funny for the most part. She has used some of the bits in other settings, but most of the material seems to be new. It's definitely worth a watch if you have Netflix.

A nice suprise

This is the second show I watched. First I watched the one of 2019. It was suprising but nothing special. So this show was more funny and special. Some clever jokes and not only being angry. It was like a gatling gun, she kept on firing, but now with more precision.

This Could Be Watched on Repeat

Warning: Spoilers
Kathrine Ryan is hysterical! If I ever got the chance I would buy her a cocktail to pay her back for making me laugh so hard! I write very few reviews whether it be on movies, restaurants, nail salons, etc. but I felt that it was necessary to make a statement when I saw the nasty comments previously left.

It must be noted that the reviewers who had left earlier comments need to take a chill pill and have their internet privileges taken away by the nurses watching over them at the retirement home. No one should have that much spare time on their hands to write a review of a performance they have only seen a couple clips of but the elderly or a social-less creeper living in his mother's basement

Katherine is a fantastic comedian. It should be painfully obvious that her audience is targeted toward a younger demographic such as the millennial crowd. It is not meant for anyone who voted for Donald Trump or who cannot understand that it's literally a joke. RELAX. Touching on sensitive topics such as religion, politics and rape are going to offend those who take everything personally. Yes, her comedy is a little raunchy but there are few successful comedians who do not follow the same formula.

She makes a comment about "not hating all Jews, just one, but that is where it all starts." As a Jew I could take that to heart and hate her for such comments but instead of acting like a cry baby I recognized the humor in it, just like anyone else who loves comedy.

Vulgar wrapped in hilarity tied with a bow made of jokes for a 20- something-year old crowd. I had put it on in the background last week and found myself wanting to actually watch it all the way through a couple days later, and after watching it from start to finish I could not help but to put it on again. After viewing it twice in four days I am now recommending it to all my friends who love controversy and a little filthy humor.

My advice to anyone who does not like her style within the first ten minutes find something new to watch instead of bad mouthing a hard working woman whom actually encourages being true to the person you are instead of conforming to the social norm.

good stand up comedy
shevaunhodge18 February 2019
Having watched your face or mine with Katherine Ryan, I find her very funny so decided to give her Netflix program a go. I first saw her standing next to Jimmy Carr on your face or mine, you could see Katherine Ryan was funny in a non offensive way, unlike Jimmy Carr who achieves laughs, by making fun of others on the show . Due to this, I thought her stand up comedy would be very funny and it was. Yes some could find her jokes slightly offensive, but most of them are based around her true life experiences, and not just picking someone out and laughing at them, as such. Obviously her jokes are very mild, unlike some comedians she has worked with in the past. Like Frankie Boyle, who is funny, but just pushes it too far. Katherine Ryan says things that could offend, then does a cheeky sweet girl smile and gets away with it :)

advice

That was a disgrace for stand up history. It's not the misogynistic trolls that gave the bad reviews . The reason for that was that it was horribly pointless and unfunny. As a woman who was unfortunate enough to born and live in a middle eastern fascist dystopia and as someone who tries to survive and protect my mental health by escapism on the internet -through vpn mostly-, I'd rather watch the usual censored propaganda news that are full of hatred, blood and pain than to endure this mess. At least they make me laugh hysterically by making me clinically insane.

Worst thing ever.

Tired old jokes
random-7077818 October 2019
Really how is it many comedians have great original material and yet we get mass marketed junk with jokes as old as Moses from no-talents like Ryan? her audiences are over pretty old too when you scan the shots of the venue. Oh and people are leaving the US to go to Canada? Actually there is more migration from Canada to the US than visa versa the last two years

Katherine Ryan doesn't care about your review
MirellaStan13 March 2021
You can leave 1 star reviews all you want while she lives her best life and plans her next special. You'll still be you, and she'll still be awesome. Get it, girl!

no no
admalice-1028023 June 2017
I caught a couple of clips from this through the internets. What a god awful performance, it reminded me of the Satellite radio station Raw Dog that has comedians that for the most part suck. A great deal of vulgarity and moments that are very awkward. I am probably biased because I don't agree with her politics but that has never stopped me from liking Chris Rock and others for example. This woman is not funny but this is what the Left forces now as hip. Very sad.
