Death to 2020 (2020 TV Special)

Very Biased; A Few Funny Moments
28 December 2020
There were a few good laughs here and there, but it was so biased that I don't know if the few laughs were enough to outweigh the feeling of annoyance. Democrats were made fun of in a light way; they made fun of Biden for being old and boring. But the "jokes" about Republicans were constantly accusing Republicans of wrongdoing and immortality. I'm just sick to death of that sort of "humor." Leslie Jones was the worst part of this. She hardly seemed to be playing a character at all and she didn't say anything funny, even though she is supposed to be a comedienne. I was disappointed that the film went through the year's events and skipped the "murder hornet" story; one of the few non-divisive news stories of the year, and one that could have certainly been played for laughs. At the end of the film, I did not come away feeling any better about the crappy year we all just had, and I felt more worried about the future than ever, because this was an example of how polarized we truly are.
