Which comedian has created the best autobiographical tv show?

Issa Rae with Insecure. For one, she made a compelling web series for herself. And it attracted huge talent like Larry Wilmore and landed on HBO. Also, she tells funny, relatable stories with BIG DEEP HEART! AND it’s about being awkward and insecure, stuff we generally avoid owning. SO IMPRESSIVE!

What’s your favorite new show this year?

Kinda new, I love Atypical, Ozark & Glow. New-new: BARRY

What’s the best Halloween episode of any tv show ever?

Roseanne’s “Boo.” The Conners are SO INTO HALLOWEEN & I wasn’t & it made me love the ‘ween. Wait, what?

Thanks Laura!
