If one is going to review a show, like the first review, then actually review the show instead of complaining about how 'she's in everything'. Maybe she is in everything because people like her and she is doing something that resonates with a lot of people. So it only makes sense that she would have this special. And it's not like the 'Haddish Invasion' is making it so that you can't turn around without seeing her. She's not Jennifer Lopez - who is as over-exposed as you can possibly be.
I'm a huge Tiffany Haddish fan and I always look forward to seeing her appear on things - I especially loved her on the Letterman Netflix show. And I do love her stand up but it gets to be a bit much: the pandering to the audience but I guess that's the point: people WANT that. he Jewish angle of it all did make it very interesting and even educational in some ways. But for some reason, as much as I love female comedians, there's a certain over-the-top bombastic quality that they are resorting to that makes it seem like they are making up for material that is lacking. Watch the first 5 minutes of the Iliza Schlessinger special - with the screaming from what seems like an Oprah audience and the flames and fire... it's just ridiculous.
I think my main problem with a lot of these specials is that the laughing to applause ratio is not good. I don't want to watch any comedy show that is telling me stuff that makes me nod my head and clap and maybe chuckle. I want to laugh. It reminds me of a quote that a great man once said.
"Applause kills comedy" - Colin Quinn.
