    Mostly solid material that yokes the old Schumer with the new.

    The dirtbag sexual nihilism of early Schumer thaws out in Growing, leaving her with little solid ground. Growing has a sleepy volubility; the erstwhile bar hound is now reminiscing with girlfriends about her wilder days over a nice but very long brunch.

    Too often, though, Growing is an exercise in well-trodden territory. In spite of showing off her own skin, and in spite of how personal this special is, Schumer’s revelations rarely get past the superficial.

I used to like Amy Schumer and I can't pinpoint where it all went wrong. I really don't think it's just her outspoken support of women's rights or lefty slant, as I usually respect that, even if I don't necessarily agree with everything she says. I don't generally clutch my pearls in the face of vulgarity either, but it has to be funny. Amy Schumer has lost that for me. I no longer think she's funny. In fact, I think she is playing everyone by setting the parameter that if you don't laugh at her jokes, you're a misogynist or chauvinist. She reminds me of my sister; a white woman who has been sheltered all her life, but thinks she's oppressed, though she can't point to any instance where she was denied anything as a result. You're expected to laugh because you owe her something, and that's just not funny. This special is just more of that entitlement with the addition of her pregnancy.… Full Review »
