Is she supposed to be funny or not?

She's a little chubby so by m/tv board rules she is not funny.

Watch the episode of Always Sunny "The gang broke Dee"

Dee represents Schumer and Dennis represents how any sane human should feel about her.

The reason she is not funny is simple. She is not funny.

She's a BBW who likes the BBC.

That's what I've picked up anyway.

She's just like any other comedian, some find her hilarious and others don't.

I personally cannot stand her, but I'm also very picky when it comes to stand up or comedians in general. However, a girl friend of mine thinks she's the greatest thing to happen to comedy ever.

So does every other woman ever. South Park has a good episode about this. Women are so desperate for the Queef sisters to be funny that they will latch on to any woman comedian who says vagina every 2 seconds(schumer).

She's pretty funny imo. She's not Iliza Schlinger fun. But a tier below.

her Friday Night Lights parody was on point.

Agree. I didn't like her standup because it was too much of the lazy "OMG i'm such a drunk slut" shtick but her show is better than just that.

I will say, the episode she did where they did the 12 Angry Men spoof discussing if she was hot enough to be on tv was funny.

Of course, she wasn't really in that skit.

She's always talking about much of a whore she is. It's repetitive and I don't see how that's funny.

Female comedians just aren't funny. It's like they try to hard and it comes across as forced and not humorous.

I honestly cannot think of one woman comedian that I actually enjoy.

But I don't like many male comedians either. I feel like a lot of them "force it" and try too hard.

That's not entirely true and I can see how this thread will become repetitive with sweeping generalizations.

Is Amy Schumer a game changer in the comedy world? No. But her sketch-comedy show is pretty good.

Assuming this is Degeneres? I hate her show and honestly can't stand her and the countries obsession with her. My mom and sister love her though. I believe she actually is genuine though in her comedic attitude, Im just not into it. I do love Portia though. She could get it.

Judging by your post. Stand-up comedy must not be your thing. Do you at least enjoy sketch comedy?
