Never Have I Ever (2020)
Surprisingly nuanced and well written teen dramedy.
Teen drama has never been my genre of choice, I tend quiver at the thought of soapy melodrama. But Mindy Kaling's Never Have I Ever, despite ticking many boxes of an over-exploited genre, it manages breath new life into a tired genre and subvert long-running TV tropes, wisely blending pathos with moments of lightness and witty social commentary.
Nikki Glaser: Bangin' (2019)
She talks exclusively about oral sex for an hour, and it's genius.
I've never heard anyone talk so intimately and candidly about the conflicting relationship that a woman can have with oral sex, and at the same time make it hilarious.
Unlike her comedy pal Amy Schumer, who made a career out of blaming her sexual misadventures on her low self-esteem, Glaser isn't afraid to show that she enjoys sex, even when it brings her more grief than hope.
This is comedy gold and top-notch storytelling. I suggest that everyone who left a negative review go watch some other cookie-cutter comedian talk about airport food in front of a brick wall for an hour instead. Much like the food in airports, their taste in comedy is bland.
