2.0 out of 5 stars Too Bad, January 3, 2011

By

Amy Balfour - See all my reviews

This review is from: Margaret Cho: Beautiful (DVD)

I used to be a huge fan of Margaret Cho, but I wonder if her best work is behind her. This show was vular and lazy. I am certainly not a prude but I don't think you have to be gross to be funny, and Cho certainly doesn't. She's done great work in the past,and I know she has the wit and heart to create hilarious comedy. But I think she's confused about who she needs to be right now. She's decided that the gay and lesbian community is her only audience. That's fine, but I still don't see why that means being completely crass and sophmoric. It's not like my gay and lesbian friends go around talking about thier "parts" all the time. They're not sex-obsessed and immature, so why does Margaret think she needs to write her jokes that way?

This review is from: Margaret Cho: Beautiful (DVD)

I don't know what happened to Margaret Cho but boy was I HUGELY disappointed in this DVD. She used to be SO funny and one of my favorite comedians. This DVD she looks different, acts different, and has lost her authenticity and likeability. Gay or not this material is offensive and just plain raunchy. Really it's not even "material" that she worked to create, more like someone drunk and blabbering immaturely about genitals for an hour. I'm the first one to crack up at things that others might find offensive but this garbage was truly a waste of time and insulting to the human race. I miss the old Margaret!
