Hannah Gadsby reveals May release date for new Netflix comedy special Douglas
"I'm excited for you to see it. It's going to be good, unless you don't like it. Then it's still going to be good, and you'll be wrong," the Australian comic said in an announcement video.Gadsby took the romanticization of oppressors to task, while dissecting topics like homophobia, mental illness, and comedy itself. The special was critically acclaimed and earned Gadsby a Peabody Award in 2018 and an Emmy Award for Outstanding Writing for a Variety Special in 2019.
"It's a pleasure just to watch Gadsby’s brain work; the way she chews a thought and doubles and triples back; the on-the-spot flashes of inspiration, dad-pun wordplay, and discomfiting honesty," Greenblatt wrote.
