In spite of the famous faces surrounding her, Cooper is the undeniable star of the special (although Jon Hamm is pretty hilarious in a parody of the My Pillow commercials). ... It's hard not to compare Cooper to late night comedians and recent "Saturday Night Live" episodes made under pandemic conditions, but "Everything's Fine" feels so much more natural than those shows (although made under considerably less time pressure).

Cooper's charisma and her outstanding ability to convey Trump's obscene ineptitude through physical performance ensure that these gags land. However, and smartly, Lyonne and producers don't rely too heavily on the impersonation aspect Cooper's brand with which most of us are familiar. There's a share of that, but mainly "Everything's Fine" shows us Cooper's natural talent. Read full review

She demonstrates what her comedic taste really is—and it’s somewhat surprising to learn that it’s deeply weird. It’s also invigorating to watch. Although Cooper does lip-synch to Trump in some segments, the best material in Everything’s Fine brings to mind Adult Swim programming, fever-dream-like productions that make just enough sense to keep you mesmerized.

On balance it’s worth the 50-minute investment on the strength of Cooper’s undeniable comedic skill set and her enormous likability, and an almost overwhelming number of guest contributors. Read full review

The in-between moments of banter between her and Armisen generate some of the special’s funniest lines and make a strong case for an entire season-long show just to see the two of them play off of each other more. What the special could have done without are the Trump lip syncs. Read full review

Even for a fan, “enjoy” might not be quite the right verb. “Everything’s Fine” is a dark and uncomfortable hour, in its glitchy mix of the banal and the bizarre something more likely to show up on Adult Swim or IFC than Netflix. It’s funny, but it won’t necessarily make you laugh. Read full review

It looks like a non-stop parade of celebrity cameos and leftover “Saturday Night Live” sketches that often feel too long. As a special that showcases Cooper’s talent and actual voice, it’s even less successful. Cooper is often overshadowed by the celebrities who surround her. Read full review

Gonzo comedy special. I'm not big on stand up or sketch comedy specials, but this one pulled me in right out of the gate due to it's bananapants in your face hysterics.

The entire special feels a little rushed, like it was thrown together last minute. Though I find Sarah Cooper extremely funny, it felt like too much time was given to guest stars who were mostly meh.

Though I find Sarah Cooper extremely funny, it felt like too much time was given to guest stars who were mostly meh. Also, the inclusion of a background storyline tried too hard to be topical, and just wound up being tedious. Sarah Cooper is best when she's doing non-sequitur sketches like the Parking Lot Magician and the Mar-a-lago sketch. Or, of course, when she's doing the Trump voice-overs that made her famous. Would love to see more from her, though! Perhaps something that focuses more on the comedian herself!… Expand
