    I am not generally into female comedians.
    So I was trying to figure out who are the best?

    Taylor Tomlinson is #1 for me. Both of her netflix specials are great start to finish. She's getting a new late night show "After Midnight" on CBS following Colbert.

    Maria Bamford... I think that's her name. She was funny. Anjelah Johnson... Although, she was a one hit wonder with that Vietnamese nail salon bit. Sarah Silverman did the raunchy bit better than anyone. Those are the only ones I'm familiar with.

    Norm MacDonald loved this topic, BTW.

    Lucille did stand up?
    I know alot of comedic actresses but Stand up is different.

    I got to know alot off Def Jam
    Monique
    Sommore
    Leslie Jones
    Wanda Sykes
    Sheryl Underwood
    Tiffany HAddish
    Adele Givens
    Sasheer Zamata


    Then there was
    Rosanne Barr
    Elaine Boozler
    Ali Wong
    Margret Cho
    Joan Rivers
    Michelle Wolf

    Still cannot say any of them had my side splitting

    Wanda Sykes stands out from that list to me, but it's probably b/c I loved her so much on Curb Your Enthusiasm.

    Loved her in Seinfeld cameos. Wait what. ..


    Seriously Wanda Sykes, I love her special. Wolf's awkward delivery hooks me.
    That's about it.
