Ellen DeGeneres stand up, Ellen Degeneres: Here and Now. A hilarious routine, Ellen talks about things such as procrastination and how foolish some modern things are (as of 2003). Clean humor, this is hilarious for the whole family!\r
\r
In just the first 10 minutes she touches on procrastination, new paint colors, television commercials, and mental disorders--topics that fit into the shows subtitle, Modern Life and Other Inconveniences. By the end, shes also spun out sneaky jokes about cell phones, memory loss, elevators, vocal inflections, pickle jars, and social embarrassment. Her genius is that she never seems like a genius; on the contrary, DeGeneres seems like your next door neighbor pointing out the obvious, yet somehow an hour whizzes by in complete enjoyment. Its peerless observational humor--nothing groundbreaking or piercingly satirical, but simply fun.
