I recently got the chance to attend a taping of the Ellen Degeneres show (she danced with me, ha!) and I have to admit that I teared up when I actually got to see her in person. It has been a dream of mine for quite a while. Not only are these DVDs extremely funny and original, but they have some very touching moments, as well. The interpretive dance in "The Beginning" gave me chills, even as it made me laugh. And seeing Ellen tear up when she came out (ha) in "Here and Now" was beautiful. I admire this woman's strength and ability, and I strive to be like her. If you have a chance, buy this DVD set, you won't, can't possibly, be sorry. :)

For those of you living under a rock, Ellen Degeneres is the host of her own hit talk show. Of course, she wouldn't be where she is today if she hadn't gained national fame through her comedy.

The Beginning is extremely funny. Especially since it was taped only three years after she came out. She makes alot more references to her sexuality in it than in Here and Now. The topics range from losing attention during conversations, to her stops at a health food store and a sex store, to even God herself. Here and Now is alot more family friendly than The Beginning, but both will make you laugh at how accurate they are to the everyday world.

Whether you're a fan of her talk show, a fan of her in general, or just enjoy a good comedy set, this DVD will not disappoint.

i watch alot of stand up comedians and ellen blew them all away she is one of the funniest comedians out there. both of these dvds are great theres never a dull momment she keeps you laughing the whole show.

I have never watched standup before, but I must say that if you are feeling down or just fancy a laugh this IS the dvd to package to get. Ellen will make your day without a doubt. Well worth it! You will appreciate every joke. Nearly every joke I had a conection to!!!!!

if you are at all a fan of Ellen, comedy, or a combination there of.. BUY THIS. both shows are extremely funny!

I loved it, and I have watched this with my friends and even family that doesn't like Ellen, but even by the end, they laughed and liked it too. 8D

All I have to say is "I love Ellen Degeneres"! Her comedy speaks to our everyday, ordinary lives and makes you think "wow" that's so true!

I love Ellen Degeneres so glad I could find this on here. My only concern was that when I got it the DVDs were not succor in the case. No big though they are DVDs so very resilient. Over all great shipping and fast.

I love these stand up routines. They are thought provoking, funny, serious, intelligent. I have watched them many times and have showed them to many friends. Ellen is a GREAT comedian and her material is original. With this set you are getting two of her stand up routines--well worth the money. And, if you ever feel down, just pop one in and laugh uncontrollably.

These tapes are so funny and entertaining. I laughed so hard and I ended up buying a set for my sister. Worth it.
