She doesn't seem to have much going on lately and this special demonstrates why. She's just not that funny. If you're someone who is offended by strong language, and laughs at very generic comedians, then this special is for you!
It's not terrible, it's just not great. Very meh. There are some funny moments but nothing that really stuck out. About the only thing I can say to recommend this is that at least she's not irritating.
I watched this because I've been going through the stand up specials on Netflix and this was there. I had no idea who Anjelah Johnson was before I watched this and I'm not exactly in a hurry to see anything else with her in it. I'd heard of the characters she played on MadTV (though I had no idea it was her who performed them), and she did do those here, and they were kind of funny, but more light chuckle funny than anything else. Also, there is an idiotic dance routine at the end of the show that served no purpose other than to make me cringe.
So yeah. If you liked her on MadTV and want to see Bon Qui Qui again, pull it up. Otherwise, watch something that is actually funny.
