    I first saw Amy Schumer on the Comedy Central Roasts. She was unbelievably cruel even for the venue. I got over my initial revulsion and watched her new show. It doesn't stray too far from her stand up act. Many will find it crude and offensive. I found it hilarious and brutally honest though she might consider sending some of her residuals to Sarah Silverman.

    Although I prefer her standup which I think is top notch, the show left something to be desired. I caught myself laughing as much as I wasnt laughing.

She is a brilliant comic, very likeable and relateable, and I believe once she finds her groove doing this show it will only get better. Her own stand up is proof of that,and I will continue to watch each week and see what she brings next as the funny parts are hilarious and worth the price of admission of sitting through the ones that are not.… Expand

    Inside Amy Schumer is often jumbled and half-formed, but when the show hits its stride, Schumer's comedic potential is fully realized. Most of the best sketches are up on YouTube, so I'd suggest you just watch those instead.

    This is the kind of show I was waiting for since middle school but never found til now. Props to Comedy Central for finding her and giving her a show. She has a lot of talent and her topics and skits are exactly the kind of humor I think in my head all day. Love it! Some of her humor takes a second to sink in but once it does your left feeling lighter and giddier with a twist!

    Of all the new comedian-driven shows Comedy Central has put out in the last year, Inside Amy Schumer ranks second only to Nathan for You in being worthy of renewal. Her typical brand of self-effacing, sexually frank, and femme-centric comedy drives the best sketches to genuinely hilarious heights.

Her typical brand of self-effacing, sexually frank, and femme-centric comedy drives the best sketches to genuinely hilarious heights. As a bonus, her "on the street" segues, stand-up setups and surprising interviews are infused with the same humor, but with an honesty and rapport that almost elevate them above said best sketches. Of course, being a sketch comedy show, not every bit is going to hit for everyone. "I fart when I'm scared," and "I'm okay w/ your AIDS," showcase how bad the show can be, especially when it veers away from what makes Amy Schumer's comedy work in the first place. Worse, the bad sketches seem to stretch on far longer than the good ones, as if the writers know it's not very good but "if we just keep hammering we''ll eventually hit." The show ultimately suffers from this mentality. The foundation is there for a great show, period, with so many qualities and working elements; but, until they recognize when they have a dud, trim overlong bits that only work in spots, and improve the quality of material outside of Amy's comfort zone, the show will just be good. Here's hoping they address the issues and shoot for greatness next season.… Expand

    Amy is hilarious, her show is hilarious, finally a female comic getting some much due recognition! She is so funny and totally deserves a show on comedy central. All the haters out there need a shot of cum right in the face, yeah that's right, see how much you like it.

    It's only been three episodes but so far I am extremely impressed with Inside Amy Schumer. I've found myself laughing out loud many times watching this show and look forward to each week's new episode. It truly is hilarious. The humor is mostly about sex and definitely aimed towards women, but is that really a bad thing? I mean after all she is a woman, and one that knows sex.

    The scripted segments are more often than not funny, though you'll find a few fall flat. Amy herself is a bold comedian and her sense of humor is always there. Usually my favorite parts of the episodes are the interviews. I expect, if given the chance, the show will only improve. 7.5/10

    In its scripted segments, the series is stylishly produced, and its wit is dry while its tone is bubbly. Not every segment is a hit, but the ones that are deserve to be quoted, repeated and discussed.

    There’s something communal about Schumer’s approach to comedy. It’s not just about punchlines. It’s about conversations. And she makes the women around her seem funnier, just by letting them in on the joke. Some of the best moments happen when she’s interviewing people, inspiring the type of real talk you don’t often get to hear once you’ve outgrown the girls’ locker room.

    Schumer is brash, outspoken, bold, raunchy and tomboyish enough to fit right in and her show is often quite funny for viewers (especially men) who are not easily offended.
