This special is full of run-on ramblings without payoff, random sounds to illicit laughs rather than being clever, and valley girl-esque speech that is grating to listen to.

Google a transcript from this special and read it rather than watching this special. It is truly uncommon that a transcript of a comedy special has better delivery and pacing than the comedian, but unfortunately this is the case here.

This show reads less like a comedy special and more like a broken person talking to a disinterested therapist. The therapist would likely laugh more than the audience, and would likely be less annoyed at the incredibly gratuitous dissertation of all of the possible uses of "like" in a published work.

The only reason this special has as high of reviews as is does is that the majority of its watchers turned it off in the first five minutes and watched something that was actually engaging and worth their time.

This special had me in tears from laughing so hard. Jenny Slate is a wonderful combination of relatable and off the wall, and the fact that she could be completely honest about the weirdness of giving birth and still make it drop dead hilarious is really refreshing. Her love story could've been tedious and annoying-like what's worse (in comedy terms) than someone bragging about their loving relationship?-but her point of view is so strong and unique that she pulls it off in all kinds of unexpected ways. She's the kooky friend everyone needs in their life.

I loved her last special but think I love this one even more, because it is still too rare to hear people talking in such real but funny ways about how pregnancy and birth-and love-changes you. Excited to see more specials down the line as her kid grows up!

Her story of her special was like having a child tell you about their day- so haphazardly told that you might lose what part of the story's structure you're in. They way Jenny breaks up her already lengthy setups with erratic outbursts of screams and random noises makes her delivery painfully erratic and came off as desperation for easy laughs rather than quirky comedic styling. As pointed out in @rmmil's review, the excessive and repetitive use of "like" was like, uh, yuck. She placed it on the audience to "find the comedy in this" when she couldn't, because there wasn't.

There were others, but these main reasons made it painful to sit through this special, hoping I would "find the comedy in it".
