It’s time to halt the Amy Schumer coronation

Amy Schumer’s much-anticipated comedy special aired on HBO this past Saturday, and it was pretty good. It ranks right up there with my personal favorites: Chris Rock: Never Scared, Wanda Sykes: Ima Be Me, and Iliza Shlesinger: War Paint. Though the special was mostly funny, there were sections that reminded the audience of Schumer’s weak points.

I can’t stop dancing to Amy Schumer’s One Direction parody

The sign of a good parody is when it’s just as enjoyable as the thing it’s mocking, while also making a point about that thing. Which means that, in my book, Amy Schumer’s parody of pop songs about how women are beautiful just the way they are but-kinda-not-really is really, really good.

Amy Schumer’s Friday Night Lights parody: “Clear eyes, full hearts, don’t rape!

Showing yet again that some rape jokes are funny, in the first episode of this season of Inside Amy Schumer, the show tackled (ha!) football rape culture in a brilliant Friday Night Lights spoof.
