I found this one on Netflix streaming videos, it is the one-hour live performance in Houston, my city. I regret that I wasn't in the audience, but this filmed presentation is just great.
Up until a couple of months ago we didn't even know her name, but we knew her and a small glimpse of her humor through her Taco Cabana commercials. She is a keen student of people and their quirks, and she amplifies them just a bit for her routine.
Part of the reason Johnson is so effective is her personality, she has a ready smile and uses facial expressions and body language to great effect. In fact, you can just listen, and find her funny, but what you see is at least half of her effect, maybe even a bit more than half.
She is a rare gem, for my time spent viewing probably the best stand-up comic working. And her routine is clean, 'fart' is about the worst you will hear, but her "parking attendant farted in my car" segment is great.
