This was a solid special. Fortune Feimster is a real comic and knows how to make the audience laugh. But there is still room for improvement. But I think she will improve. I followed her career for a while now and I think she's going to be a star. Let's hope she'll keep doing stand up. She can be right up there with the greats. No doubt!

Fortune is going to be big
LOVE HER!
I've seen this special five times now. I love it so much. She's a great storyteller. Her execution is perfection.
Funnier than I expected
I haven't heard of Fortune before her special popped up on my Netflix suggestions so I must admit I pre-judged the show thinking it was another boring "woke" commentary from Hollywood. Netflix has released some awful comedy recently but I watched it hoping I was wrong, and I was. It is a feel good comedy about growing up as an overweight lesbian with hilarious stories relating her experience. She was not complaining about how awful people can be (which again, is an aspect that is making some recent comedy shows a real drag), instead, think Bob Eucker or Rodney Dangerfield. No hackey jokes about the president which are just too easy. She veers into some sexual content but not for pure shock due to lack of comedic skill but rather more lighthearted jokes about boobs and whatnot, around PG-13 ish. I laughed a bunch of times and hope she gets more decent stand-up gigs because this was a refreshingly good time and she has lots of potential, so I gave this a well deserved 6/10. I would have rated higher if there were more constant laughs, but I must say she gained a fan.
