Editorial Reviews
Almost an hour of hilarious stories told with characters in her inimitable, idiosyncratic style. The DVD features 90 minutes of fantastic video shorts, which originally appeared as "The Maria Bamford Show" web series on Super Deluxe. Maria is well-known from her two "Comedy Central Presents" specials, two critically acclaimed and strong-selling albums, her role in "The Comedians Of Comedy", and in Fox's series "Sit Down, Shut Up", from the talk show circuit, and from extensive touring.

The audio portion is fantastic. In addition, you get a DVD of her show from Superdeluxe (which makes this worth getting in and of itself).
Buy this or I will kill you.

what is it i love so much about maria? is it her low-key yet somehow still spirited delivery? the fact that she mostly works "clean" yet is still hysterically funny? maybe it's because she used to play the violin. all i can say is GOD BLESS HER b/c she is my sunshine on a cloudy day! such a unique voice. such an original performer. ALWAYS a go-to girl for "the funny" and ALWAYS a little bit...well, on the wonderously off-beat and "odd" side! i enjoyed every aspect of this, her latest production--and i loved the webclips on the bonus dvd so much i IMMEDIATELY watched them back to back all over again the next day b/c they gave me such a "high." so yourself a favour--order this for yourself or give it to someone you love as a gift--you CANNOT go wrong with maria bamford!

Unbalanced minds are a wonderful thing. While they're tipping to and fro they reveal a little of what's underneath the facade of everyday workaday world. Much is revealed by Maria. She sees humanity in a different light, both sharp and soft, like her face which has piercing eyes and and a compassionate heart showing showing through. She's definitely evolving, and it's scary to think where she'll go next. She is my absolute favorite humorist/comic, and I recommend you not only buy this cd (and all her cd's), but buy them for the people you love. She is the gift that keeps on giving. About the dvd. Why she isn't sought after for films and tv is beyond me. Maybe it's her good taste. It's hard to place her character playing potential because she shines in all directions she chooses. I measure acting skill by the ability to change appearance without extreme makeup and effects. Here we have a mighty chasm between the exquisite shy dater and the exquisite though disturbing Pastor Dan. The rest is, as Maria says, gravy. Exquisite gravy.

The Best!
Maria Bamford is one of the funniest comedians around.She's really bright
and completely original. She has a few equals, but there's no one better. Definetely check her out.

The lovable, adorable uncomic.....love her!
You know what I love about Maria's comedy, it's unpredictable. So many comediennes, both male and female fall into that cookie cutter mold and they think mimicking a certain tone... Read more

This is very funny. So much so that it gets inside my head and I find myself using lines from Maria in everyday life. Read more

my two cents
Brilliant, I say. Among the best comics ever and also one-of-a-kind. But you should check out YouTube clips to see if you get the humor, since not everyone does. Read more

The Bammer Strikes Again
Maria Bamford's name comes up again and again when great comics name their favorite performers working today, and with good reason. Read more

WYSIWIG - What if Jim Gaffigan shaved?
Is Maria Bamford the healthy alternative, clean-shaven Gaffigan? She's definitely whiter than he is. I didn't know what I was getting into with this. Read more

More please.
The people that wouldn't like this would be people who like Dane Cook, Carlos Mencia and any other hack mainstream comedian. Nothing matches the brilliance of Maria. Read more
