Details

Finally, a comedian who isn't whining, insulting or self-loathing. Kathleen Madigan is just brilliantly funny and is still, after 20 years in the business, actually having fun. In this hilarious stand-up special, shot at the Gramercy Theater in New York City, Kathleen takes on politics, American culture and her family who has given her full permission to sell them down them down the river. Winner of the American Comedy Award for Best Female Comic, Madigan has been seen over 12 times on The Tonight Show, The Late Show with David Letterman, The View, Dr. Phil, ESPN, The Joy Behar Show and has had her own specials on HBO and Comedy Central. Madigan was the only comedian in the history of NBC's Last Comic Standing to go unchallenged by any other comedian. She lives in Los Angeles but spends inordinate amounts of time with her family in the Missouri Ozarks.

FeistyUpper If you don't like this, we can't be friends.
Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
Scotty Burke It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
Max Rottersman I didn't see a review so am writing one because Gone Madigan is a 10 to me, not a 7.1, or whatever IMDb shows. Why? It's very funny. But so are many comics. She seems like an interesting person, someone you'd enjoy being around. So are many comics. So what makes her special? Her technique is flawless. I was just watching Joe Rogen, and as funny as he is, he resorts to saying things like "this is just comedy, I'm not like this in real life". Madigan never breaks her persona to excuse something. She doesn't break character to voice a pet peeve. She's very, very disciplined in how she tells her stories, though that is very far from how she appears. She makes it look easy, way TOO easy. She's one of the few comedians where I remember her bits long after watching. I remember the stories she tells. I can't say that for most comedians I watch. That's a 10 in my book.
