Goodbye and good riddance, 2020. Yearly Departed is a hilarious, absurd, life-affirming comedy special, where seven outspoken female comedians lay to rest the year that never seemed to end. Hosted by Phoebe Robinson (Two Dope Queens), with an all-star lineup including Tiffany Haddish, Sarah Silverman, Natasha Rothwell, Ziwe, Natasha Leggero, Patti Harrison, and Rachel Brosnahan as they bid farewell to 2020's biggest conceptual casualties, from TV Cops to Casual Sex, giving the year a cathartic sendoff.

So bad. A bit cringy. I swear it's not cus they're all women, they just aren't funny. I don't know know who thought these ladies were funny. Chelsea Peretti and Jane Fonda were the only decent part. The rest was a forest fire.

I wanted to like it. Everything seemed on my vibe - the women, the politics etc. But it felt flat.

I think that Yearly Departed should be done in a year like 2020 in which it was a damn year full of disappointments, tragedies and more, while if the years to come are good, it was a pleasure to see this special from Amazon Prime that being honest, He needed to make me laugh until 2021 rolls around which is hopefully a good year for everyone.

It wasn't funny at all. I tried. Waste of money and time. The only thing they put to death was their joke making skills.

Maybe a roast isn't exactly what "Yearly Departed" was going for, but a wake doesn't quite fit either.

Yearly Departed doesn't necessarily strike comedy gold, but it makes the process of complaining about and bidding goodbye to a particularly tough year a little more tolerable.

Rated: B

But Why Tho? A Geek Community

Not every joke lands, but Yearly Departed is thoroughly enjoyable and a good way to laugh off the last year as a new one gets itself started.

Rated: 8/10

A stand-up comedy approach to the year from hell, delivered by a cast of funny women from a funeral parlor setting.
