"I got the chance to preview Alex Borstein's new stand-up act Drop Dead
Gorgeous and it's nothing short of drop dead hilarious. She is a
natural on stage who is as funny as she is original. Her material is
new, fresh, genuinely funny, and while it's plenty raunchy, she doesn't
rely on that for laughs. It's great to get to see Alex in action, in
real life as opposed to her animated work as Lois on Family Guy.
She imitates, she sings, she dances (some would call that dancing
others....well) and everyone is a potential target. A MUST buy for all
Family Guy and Borstein fans. And if you're not yet a Borstein fan,
you're about to be..."

"Those use to Alex's persona on Mad Tv are in for a shock,while she is just as funny,if not more so...She has one hell of a foul mouth.So if you're easily offended or can't stand swearing,avoid this dvd.Otherwise you're gonna have a great belly laughing time at this.
Alex does do a couple of impersonations,my highlight being her impersonation of Renee Zellweger. This dvd is worth viewing just to see the real Alex at work,not the edited for tv version.Great dvd for any comedy/family guy/mad tv/Alex fan"

"Borstein needs to stick with her voice-over work (where she is truly gifted) until she can come up with a performance better than this. She relies too much on material she hasnt even written (Hollywood casting breakdowns) to get the laughs and to make a point. A point which we all know...Hollywood has set an ideal for women that no one can live up to. The most interesting part of the DVD is a behind-the scenes look at the offices of Family Guy. If you are looking for stand-up from a women's point of view that is much more insightful and actually delivers the laughs check out Margaret Cho."
