What I liked

Mandy occasionally breaks out in cover songs with new, original lyrics to act as a Greek chorus that adds humorous commentary to her current situation. It’s a very clever device that works well in the context of her show. I love it!

What I didn't like

I didn’t dislike anything about her show. Great job, Amanda!

My overall impression

The vulnerability of Amanda’s story is both relatable and endearing. We root for Mandy right out of the gate, as she takes us on her version of the ride to empowerment and self-acceptance that just about every human being experiences in their own way. We see ourselves in Mandy, and she gives us hope.
