Season 1 Review: More than anything, Joke Show reminds us that the personal is political. ... Joke Show is great stand-up from a great comedian who knows there’s life—and comedy—after Trump. Read full review

Season 1 Review: “Joke Show,” an hour-long defense of women being as obscene as the obscenity of the world around them demands, is funny. But it’s also forthright about how, in times as vulgar as these, she’s just a dirty mirror reflecting the crude national soul. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Wolf starts from a place she knows people will already recognize, and then has confidence in her supremely careful joke writing to pull the premise into a funny, newly interesting angle almost in spite of itself. Wolf identifies the trap and then almost always leaps over it. Sometimes she does it by presenting the most succinct, incisive version of some well-trodden territory. Read full review
