This is now the third special from Hannah Gadsby, and one I love as much as the two earlier ones. While Nanette broke my heart, Douglas was just pure joy of connecting with a fellow autistic mind, and no we have Something Special, which, indeed, is something special. Hannah has the ability to build her comedy on laughing at her own peculiarities all the while being just the charming witty person she is. She tells the story of proposing her now wife, Jenno, and turns the story into a heart-warming comedy show without insulting anyone, without laughing at less-fortunare people, and without being problematic. And, this is pure perfection. Also very relatable for someone like me, autistic and queer.

Hannah Gadsby returns with a third Netflix special that starts good and ends great. While her first special is best remembered for being a serious affair, and her second increased the quantity of jokes (Gadsby herself acknowledged she'd unpacked most of her trauma in her first big special), with Something Special, I feel like Gadsby just revolutionised "my wife" comedy (which itself is a generally tired type of standup that I tend not to like). To elaborate, it's a pet peeve of mine when stand-up comedians rely too heavily on jokes about their wives (mostly men, but I've also seen female comedians who make much of their routine about partners), and that there seem to be increasingly fewer ways to make these jokes funny. They're not always inherently unfunny, but it's a type of joke you start to recognize (and get tired of) after watching a decent number of standup specials. Here, Gadsby's show largely revolves around the last few (mostly positive) years of her life, particularly how she came to be married. Her jokes aren't at the expense of her partner; they're more just funny and endearing observations. The endearing part makes up for the fact that the material isn't always laugh-out-loud funny. It's a little more subdued, but it's consistent and doesn't often miss. It also builds up to an excellent ending that made me appreciate the special as a whole much more. If there's one complaint, it's that things grind to a halt whenever Gadsby mentions "editing out" jokes that don't hit. I feel like comedians should take a failed joke in stride, lampshade its failure in a funny way, or actually edit it out and not let the imperfection show. I know I've seen other comedians lately do this kind of reference when something doesn't hit with the audience, and I think it's starting to hurt specials. It's confusing, because I remember her second special had some better meta-observations about the nature of standup, but here, they just feel like (very occasional) awkward bloopers. But this is largely a very good special, and expertly subverts and puts a positive/wholesome spin on the tired "complain about my wife for an hour" style of standup special. From now on, anyone else who wants to base a comedy special primarily around their significant other has to make sure it's at least as good as this.

I always found Gadsby super witty and edgy, but this one is so put on it fails to be counted as comedy. Gadsby definitely lost her edge here, telling "normal" jokes something she really doesn't have an advantage in. And all the name dropping is so tedious. I couldn't even follow the storyline of her meeting with Jody Foster, among others. She sounded as if she is not convinced of her own jokes, which makes sense. The tone is flat and monotonous, it's as if she is banking on her fans liking her that she is not bothered to put in the effort. It really doesn't work when the comedy is entirely 100% about you! You're interesting but not THAT interesting. Sorry Hannah thumbs down for me for this one.

I know people are losing their sense of humour, but it can't be that bad. Come on there isn't one funny thing about this I am really to bet my money that the audience is paid to be there and fake laugh. This is tragic. It is one thing to be delusional, but for other people to lie to you is just evil. I know people are losing their sense of humour, but it can't be that bad.

Gadsby talks about its 2021 wedding to producer Jenney Shamash, and some traumatic encounters. Who cares? It's not funny. None of it. It's actaully very boring. So somebody wants to prop this totally boring and unfunny person up for public view. You're doing us a complete disservice. It's a horrible special -- if it can be called "special." More like a sleep inducing train wreck that you will not enjoy. The state of "comedy" these days is just dismal and this one proves it. Self-indulgent, self-obsessed, and above all.....not funny. Full disclosure -- I fell asleep for 20 minutes in the middle. Netflix is going downhill. Wonder if they paid the audience to laugh.
