I am not gay, trans, bi or anything else other than just a boring, straight white guy. I initially decided to watch this because I love Tig and Wanda Sykes but then I got REALLY excited to see Todd Glass, James Adomian and Fortune Feimster on stage. WHat a disappointment that they couldn't somehow make this longer and include their sets.
Overall the show was really good and Eddie Izzard did a fantastic job of setting up a very funny ending line.

There are some really good comedians in this mix, but they barely had time for a set. I feel it would have been better if they had more time for a more developed set. Felt like a series of one liners, many which weren't that great. Or hits against Chapelle which is petty since he has apologized and tried explain his views but heaven forbid someone else has a different view and difficulty understanding something different from what their norm. As for Bill Burr, he does hate comedy is is against any minority group, so again, why waste your breath.
There were some comedians that used their time with excellence. I did finish the show, smiled at some parts laughed at others.

I love the diversity in this special, with cast members of all (most?) letters within the LGBTQ+ acronym, and racial diversity which was reflected in their pieces.
However, as it can be expected from such a diverse show where each comedian could only do a small bit: some jokes are hilarious, some are bad, most of them are mediocre. Taste is diverse, and it is not to be expected that one can enjoy every inch of the show fully, because of its premise. All things considered, I was enjoyed for the duration of the show, so that's a good thing.

Overall I enjoyed it. There was a couple not so funny people. The main thing I wanted to say here is why did they keep saying it was the first show of its kind when in 1993 and 94 there was Out There 1 and 2!

When your criteria is based on sexual preference first and talent second, this is the result. This was the moment to showcase relevent, brilliant comics that are also LGBTQ+, not LGBTQ+ mediocre-at-best comics. So many comics were missing that could have made this nothing short of genius.

I really enjoy light hearted jokes and not so complicated. All the comedians did rather short time which was perfect becuz it was full of story and punchlines. Highly recommend.

It started out ok,then performances were getting cringy. I don't really think alot of them had any material prepared before they agreed to this. The event ended badly with a terrible song that I don't want to ever hear again.

This isn't funny or inspiring. As a 56 year old gay male I find most of these views to be stagnant and stereotyping. Which is very counter productive to progress.
I've also noted how there use to be dozens of mediocre reviews for this "special" but they have all been reported and removed because they call out for how that viewer feels it is. Just another wokeness run amuk and trying to force their view and theirs alone as the correct view or perception.

The material was just so weak, I found myself cringing almost all the way through. There were a couple of laughs here and there, but otherwise it was just a painful experience. Would not recommend.
I love a lot of the comedians and think the special was funny. However, I didn't like the dragging of Dave Chappelle. Several comedians said he want to take down the rainbow community.... Flat out lies. He has certainly shared his experiences and have opinions, but nothing he said was to punch down the rainbow community. #provemewrong. I am an ultimate ally, but No one talks about how I feel about being labeled a Cis Woman. I didn't approve that and I don't like it! I am a woman period. Feel free to label yourself but it's not fair to give women a label I don't want. I label myself as a natural woman, and somehow that's criticized.
As gay man i am embarrassed by this, this is an horrible representation of community! Gay people are cool and fun and who ever picked this bunch of unknowns did a horrible job. Stop forcing holywood gay and give chance to real funny and relatable gays. Terrible shameful show.
