Whitney Cummings is hilarious. Her comedy is observational and right on . This special focuses on the relationship between men and women and is very insightful. A LOT of her jokes are related to her specifically and at her own expense. Still, they are very funny.
I do think a lot of this material has been on other specials.
I love her stand up.

It’s not every day a funny lady reveals the best way to punish a boyfriend, what it’s really like to date a vampire, the similarities between The Food Network and porn and the “emotional ninja” tactics all women have at their disposal!

Hilarious Stand Up, Heavily Targets a Female Audience
Just Alright
Another reviewer wrote "she seems to have based her observations on watching other comedians, as there was very little I hadn't heard elsewhere - and better - before." I cannot disagree with this.
I did not really know much about Whitney Cummings going in to this, but by the time it was over, I just felt dead inside. I got zero laughs out of this. She not only seems to have nothing really clever to say, but many of her comments seem way off (like she is not on the same plane of existence as the rest of the world).
She seems to be directing her comedy towards women and against men. That is not a good idea, and will not get her many fans. There is a stereotype in stand-up comedy that women are not funny (with a few minor exceptions)... Cummings does not help break this stereotype.
Women's Problems
Whitney Cummings stars in this one woman show and, as it runs on Comedy Central, talks for about forty minutes. She tackles most of the standard subjects of modern comedy: relationships, sex, the unreality of expectations and, of course, dealing with men.
While I would not put on this show if any young children were present -- mostly for use of language inappropriate for youngsters, same as for most male comics these days -- it's a very good show. Ms. Cummings stalks back and forth on stage with a lot of energy and, if at the start of the show she panders a bit to her mostly female audience, her observations are spot on and funny and well delivered. Highly recommended.
