Margaret Cho |
Revolution |
(Nettwerk) |
It’s been nearly a decade since Margaret Cho starred in the short-lived sitcom All-American Girl. She’s weirder and scarier than network television could ever do justice. Each listen to her stand-up comedy on Revolution eases the shock and draws you into her world. When speaking normally, Cho’s attitude is more urban jive than mysterious East. Asian stereotyping, diet-propelled incontinence—it’s all fodder for Cho, and if she can fit “pussy” into the punchline, it tends to be gold. |
