Inside Amy Schumer

The series features Schumer's take on life, sex, men, women, dating & relationships through scripted scenes, stand-up routines, & woman-on- the-street interviews.

Self deprecating humor is defined where you put yourself down. Sometimes funny, but sometimes overused fishing for compliments or a signal of low self-esteem. Example: "Dress for the job you want, not the job you have. My boss told me that was NOT a good look for the office." Amy would read that & LOVE that definition & the example.

I find this show funny because the dating segments usually are a mix between a woman with rock bottom self esteem mixed with some cold & cruel narcissistic dude. I thought several sketches were laugh out loud funny BECAUSE they are so over the top & out of control. What I love about Amy is how she can show painful disappointment with her hilarious but very subtle facial expressions...as people put her down and treat her with zero respect constantly. I am a fan of this show as it is TRULY a fun social commentary on modern dating. What makes me laugh the MOST are the sketches that have the "Hell Date" or "Disaster Date" feel to them. Oh man...at times I am sitting there saying this is my life.

It REALLY has SOME shades of truth to it...how self absorbed our society has become. Then some scripted scenes are so off the wall...like her nightmare sketch...OMG...so hilarious. Blah...blah...blah...I am stuck in Amy's nightmare on a daily basis.

("Blah...blah...blah...Eli Manning...blah...blah...blah...sports...blah...blah...blah...natural birth...blah...blah...blah...")

Modern dating is so depressing that so many people can seriously relate to this show. I love Amy...she is my favorite comedienne...by far now. I first saw her on 'Red Eye' and thought she was great. I am so glad Comedy Central renewed this gem for another season.

Kudos to the writers...great work...great approach. Oh...I neglected to mention I love the guest appearances by some of her comedian friends. Cast has been fantastic so far. I have only seen 1 lame sketch out of 20 too.

So far...19 of 20 sketches made me laugh & that is SO RARE for me nowadays...so I thank you guys for cheering me up for once. I bet Amy has seriously experienced some of these "3 scoops or crazy" people as at times there is no way you can write this stuff...has to be based on real "characters" one of the writers or Amy has had the displeasure of coming across. I meet them too & that is another reason I am a fan. I can totally relate. It is like someone followed me around with a video camera in a day of my life...sad but true...it is totally like this show...on a daily basis, but FOR REAL.

The last time I gave a show an 8 out of ten was when I rated the Boondocks. That was funny and Inside Amy Schumer is funny. I will almost guarantee I will watch every episode every week. Inside Amy Schumer (I.A.S) is hilarious because she mixes reality with exaggeration. This is something that takes skill. Very few comedians know how to exaggerate the situation while at the same time keep it realistic. I would assume (from the title) I.A.S describes a bit about her. If not, then Wow! She can act. A few months prior to seeing I.A.S, I saw Mostly Sex Stuff. (Check out my review on that as well). That was also laugh out loud funny. So when I heard that Amy Schumer was coming out with a TV show, I had to see it. To my surprise, Inside Amy Schumer had some big name people guess star. I also love it because it's like a talk show, a skit comedy show, and a stand up all in one. When watching anything made by Amy Schumer, you must a have some knowledge of her comedy. Not every can get it. I not saying you must be a super genius, but when watching it with my mom, she couldn't understand some jokes. To sum this all up, Inside Amy Schumer is a laugh out loud, super witty, brain buster comedy that many will enjoy. I really enjoyed Mostly Sex Stuff, and now once again, I'm impressed.

They just started repairing it on Comedy Central and I thought I'd give a shot while working. I already had a pre-existing idea of Amy Schumer not being funny from her stand up, and this isn't changing my opinion of her comedy. This sketch comedy show is very bland and seems to be trying to force jokes out with randomness and sexual humor. There doesn't seem to really be a punchline out of those two options for the show. It structures itself like an episode of Robot Chicken, but it tries to keep itself in a semi-reality form where the jokes all revolve around her trying too hard to be funny and jokes about her love live that doesn't seem to do anything.

If you hate laughing, then watch Inside Amy Schumer. It was painfully unfunny to watch her spit out the same joke in every sketch. This show is supposed to be directed at women and their perception of sex, but the last time i checked, I was a woman and I just couldn't laugh at or relate to any of it. I'm not a prude at all, but her joke is not well put together and the way she tells it comes across as childish, a bit like a high school kid who's bragging about self humiliation, rejection and sex like its no big deal.

Her sketch show mirrors her stand up comedy shows, dry and leaving a lot to be desired. How many ways can you tell the same joke?

I mean, sometimes she is funny, and don't get me wrong, making fun of people is funny... but she turns everything so far left its hard to watch. let me rephrase that, impossible to watch. I only give her a two because every once in a while she drifts back into the normal realm, you know, where you can see a person who is a little plus sized not freak about people identifying her as a little chubby. like saying that guy has dark hair. Remember really funny comedians? back in the day, they didn't discriminate, they made fun of everybody.. recently I went to Vegas and was dragged to a Carrot Top show (kicking and screaming) I have never laughed so hard in my life, go read his reviews. If you compare him to Amy, she would have a negative number, but if you are into the whole, "I need my safe space", then you will love Amy Schumer.
