    Cringe-worthy, banal and gimmicky. Even the scenes with her family (probably with the aim to establish her as a likable character) don't offer much in saving her horrendous attempt at stand-up. A clear case of positive discrimination promoting mediocrity.

    Stage Fright succeeds because it oozes authenticity, thanks in part to a combination of Slate’s overwhelming joy and a display of deep vulnerability. ... The result is a heartwarming, hilarious, and revealing hour that encapsulates all the good and bad that have made Jenny, Jenny.

    A refreshingly unique, consistently entertaining, and sometimes over-loose special.

    The final leg of Slate’s stand-up does feel like a sum that’s doing its best to capitalize on all of the hour’s many parts; it’s a joke about the moon that’s even better for the time we’ve spent getting to know Slate behind the scenes. As for the rest of it, Stage Fright is a beautiful, personal hour. But I’m left wondering if I needed to know quite this much.
