    First review?!?! How is that possible?

    LOL'ed a lot. Can't remember when I've laughed this hard.

    IDK what to critique - it's comedy and it's super funny. Nothing to fix.

    Question: do the actors doing the terrible improv have to be great improvisors to do improv that bad?

    Never did learn to say Megan right.

    I felt like I should be worried for Tiggy but it seems like she's doing well.

    I'm beginning to understand why nobody has reviewed this. Maybe good comedy isn't reducible to logical/intellectual analysis. Is there a humor cortex in the brain, like the way music is separate / paralinguistic / para-logical?

    How about favorite parts: we're down to one breathe-right strip.

    Tiggy wore a too-big bike jersey to yoga.

    I quit my job for this (haunted look... manic laughter) Text me your address; I'll send you a Keurig.

    PINEAPPLE. (standoff look) Beverly in the bg.
