"lampanelli now ranks as my favorite comedian! she is stark raving, in your face funny! she jokes so openly about stereotypes, taking them to absurd degrees that i can't help but be bent over in stitches! she is hilarious, raucous and spontaneous. what i like most is that in all of her joking she is able to convey that she does not believe one bit of her stereotyping. she is the best! i can't remember when i've laughed so hard! her live performance is over the top as well!
thanks lisa!"

Some very funny lines

"Lisa Lampanelli is QUITE amusing! She's foul-mouthed, hard-nosed, and unsparing, as well as all-encompassing, in her attacks. There are some hilarious lines, and a lot of it is very original. It's obnoxious to the extreme, but doesn't come off mean spirited.



I don't really understand the problem the previous reviewer has with the program; sounds like she failed to read the product description, always a good idea before ordering a video one hasn't seen."

VERY POOR QUALITY AUDIO and VISUAL

"I can not believe that a company can actually release this show without feeling ashamed about the terrible sound and bad camerawork. This recording looks and sounds like it was pirated! The sound was recorded via the camera's mike - in other words you hear the highpitched semi-drunk laughter and shrieks of girls sitting close to the camera FIRST , and then in the "background" you hear miss Lampanelli's voice. Barely. She often disappears into the darkness of the outer spotlight regions or from view of the static camera. A Very amateurish production and I have a good mind to ask for my money back. I saw the later show out on DVD "Take it like a Man" FIRST, and that release's technical aspects are much better. The contents of Miss Lampanelli's show, I'm sad to say , is roughly a clone of this one. I suppose they wanted to release something more professional after this disaster came out. Her act hasnt changed at all, so give this one a miss and buy the other release, it's really funny, but like Joan Rivers, it seems like she does the same material over and over, so once you've seen one show, you might have seen her career."

Clone

"Lisa is hilarious and I love that she pushes those racial buttons. If you can't laugh at something sometimes, then you probably shouldn't be watching tv. However, if you want to own this DVD, forget about it. It's the exact same skit as her "Take it Like a Man" DVD, but less quality so I recommend just buying that one. Frankly, I'm a little disappointed that she would make two DVD's of the exact same show and sell tham as separate labels. I fell somewhat like the wool was pulled over my eyes."
