As transformative as comedy can be. If you wanna call this comedy. Which is just a label. What a gift this is. Let's just call it art. I'm reading other reviews here (from white straight men like me) judging this on the scale of funny vs not funny. I just want to tell you: If that's your coordination system for Nanette, than you weren't listening. And it sucks that we used up words like inspirational or powerful - we could really use them here.

Gadsby works in plodding mildness. Her one-woman-show approach and milquetoast persona are as tired and hacky as Judd Apatow's, with a narcoleptic delivery a la Stewart Lee. There are few jokes or premises that haven't been used by funny comedians as filler. Lengthy stretches are intentionally very serious, and as a result, intentionally unfunny. Late in the show she gives up comedy altogether. This special could be mistaken for a long, impassioned TED Talk. Picasso bit's interesting.

Hannah Gadsby is a gem. This is absolutely her magnum opus. It's a deeply personal piece, but one that resonates with anyone who has ever felt like they didn't fit into the mold the world expected them to. As a queer person who has always used humour as a coping mechanism, this hit home in a way that had me laughing, and then crying my heart out. A story like this is what a lot of misunderstood kids will appreciate hearing. I only hope it has an impact on the way they are treated by others.

Not overrated. And considering the buzz at the minute, that’s pretty much the highest compliment I can give.

I'm not going to pretend Nanette isn't a comedy. or that it isn't a personally felt and boundary-pushing work - it is. But I'm also not going to pretend Nanette is unifying or cathartic, which are fundamental to comedy art. Gadsby rakes us through a vile subculture of perpetual shame and victimhood until, like Lady Macbeth, no one can wash the blood off. I'm simply not sure the approach is honestly healthy, for anyone involved.

This moved me to ugly sobbing, made me laugh through the tears, broke my heart in a million pieces, and then proceeded to put it back. This is a piece of art that talks about what art is. This is a freakin ode to 'freaks' like me, to everybody who doesn't belong, a call for sensitivity and an uncomfortable mirror to the comedy establishment. It's amazing how many sides there are to this gem. Will rewatch over and over again, because it makes me feel more human and more empathetic.

A few laughs but this is pretty much just preaching-to-the-choir comedy which is not my cup of tea.

Not very funny, but nonetheless, a supremely important piece of stand-up whose influence won't likely be fully-felt for another couple of years. A deeply personal, moving blend of stand-up and story-telling that explores not only the darker parts of our world but the problematic elements of the world of comedy as well.

Difficult to rate. It’s brave, but it’s toxic. It’s groundbreaking but it’s not the future I want to live in. It’s not cathartic for the audience. Honest but confused. Sincere & raw but is that objectively useful or good? It’s emotional & evocative, it’s articulate. Few people could do this as effectively. But I don’t like it, I don’t enjoy it. It is thought provoking. Lots of mixed feelings after I slept on it. Any score between 10-90 seems defensible.

Eh. Amid the laughter, there's some insight, and, unfortunately, a lot of off-putting aggression and condescension. Further points deducted for spreading debunked feminist propaganda like the gender wage gap.

Originally intended as her farewell show, "Nanette" turned out to be Gadsby's international breakthrough prompting her to change her mind. Gadsby is a magnifying presence and a talented comedian. Despite some outstretched bits and an overplayed meta tendency and even without truly groundbreaking comedy bits per se, she does manage, through the themes she chooses and the way she approaches them culminating in the unexpected but welcome dramatic finale, to challenge our notions regarding comedy.

W4E2P2S2V1M1A2R3. Like Hassan Minhaj's also-excellent Netflix special, this elevates stand-up comedy to something more, and does it even more subtly and masterfully. Must watch.

leaving the audience without a punch line at the end is a very bold move.. this stand-up show is not a comedy, it humiliates the premises of comedy-making.

This is difficult to rate as I almost never watch Comedy. I did not laughed at all, so as a Comedy this would be 5/100. But as political commentary this was good.

gadsby'nin mizahi zamanlaması o kadar iyi ki kasıtlı da olsa çoğu düz yazılmış esprileri etkili oluyor -ki ikinci yarısıyla beraber komedi özelinde söylediği şeyleri belli ölçüde başarıyor bu anlamda. fakat formu yenileme derdiyle beraber bu hala bir stand-up gösterisi ve alkış X kahkaha ikilemi kurup burada ilkine kaymak yine "doğru" olmanın ön planda kaldığı bir formu ortaya çıkarıyor. gadsby özelinde işlese de bu formun bana göre olmadığı kesin.

This was slow to get into, largely because it isn't straight comedy. But by the end I really liked her bit.

Here is a challenge, take a joke from twitter, this special, and a special from any great comedian. Then, just in writing, try to edit it down as much as possible while still making the joke work. It's harder than it sounds, but it will be easiest with a Gadsby joke. Not saying all comedy needs to race to punchlines, but she wastes a lot of time not building anything. It's not wholly unfunny, but has more "speak truth to power" than timing, humor, or entertainment. Not my cup of tea.
