Whoopi Goldberg: The Word According to Whoopi (2007 TV Special) User Reviews

Whoopi speaks the truth

[iloveteach · 7/10 · 4 June 2007]

Whoopi IS the voice of my generation, and this special shows it! She talks about the pop stars of today, the way we've raised our children - and the sad truth that we can't stand those things. We have all gotten old enough to appreciate the changes in society and Whoopi isn't afraid to tell us how much we hate it!

Whoopi talks about language, child-rearing tips, and other recent events in a way that few comics can. I especially loved her comments about the child on the "public transportation." It's so true. We all LOVE kids on planes and trains - right?!

Enjoy this! She really says what we all think!

Whoopi is Genius--The Best Kind of Philosophy

[mswatsoninc · 10/10 · 27 June 2007]

Whoopi is just FLAT OUT cool. Her latest stand-up on Bravo is not to be missed in "The Word According to Whoopi." She analyzes how we speak, how we age, what is true, and, best of all, how we feel is OK.

Her story of the interaction with a rude child on a flight is absolutely dead on when it comes to how I feel. If you don't raise your child, I shouldn't clock in on your break. And, calling "stupid" the worst of all words couldn't be more true.

I'm paraphrasing, of course--but, for the full count of it all, check out the brilliance of "Whoopi" and "the Word." If it doesn't make you think, then, you don't have a brain.
