04/25/2007 | Like Dice Clay, she's very obscene. Unlike Dice Clay, she's occasionally funny. Ultimately, though, she's almost as tiresome as he is, her act only marginally less pedestrian and predictable. She often opens her act with the yawn-inducing (and I'm paraphrasing), "Look, we have to be able to laugh at each other. Nobody can be above mockery. We can't be PC here. Everybody should be able to laugh at themselves!" which is the same mundane and shop-worn rationalization used by everyone from Howard Stern to Don Imus. Lampanelli then goes on to mock...who else?...blacks, latinos, gays, asians, etc. etc. etc. I'm not a "comedy snob", but if I must suffer through ethnic humor, give me somebody like Don Rickles. At least he was more than occasionally funny.

08/28/2006 | Maybe as raunchy of a female that I've ever heard, but I haven't heard too much else from her. She works well on the Comedy Central roasts, but I would like to hear some more from her before rating her higher.
