Inside Amy Schumer: Three Buttholes
July 8, 2015 4:00 AM - Season 3, Episode 10 - Subscribe

Amy goes below the belt in skits about her cavernous vagina, extra anuses (ani?), Cockblock, and the traditional season-closing raucous Bridget Everett performance.

But there's more head-oriented fare as well, as Amy goes to a "smile guy" to boost her career and gets into a relationship with a right cad solely because of his accent.

Maybe I'm just in a crabby mood, but I thought this was another weak episode that wasn't very funny. Though the proposal during the credits was nice.

...and the traditional season-closing raucous Bridget Everett performance.

Maybe I'm just being crabby, too, but I just have never found Everett very funny or entertaining. Her act seems to always veer into that "trying too hard to outrage" territory.

Overall, though, I thought this was an average episode. Not amazing, but not too bad, either. A solid C+, I guess.

This was the first season I've watched, and it's kinda shocking how uneven things can be. The 12 Angry Men and Friday Night Lights pieces were amazing, probably the best satire I've ever seen on TV. But then we get the bizarre and disturbing Cockblock sketch, or last week's boring time travel thing, and it's Fast Forward City.

That's sketch shows in general. Some are diamonds, some are turds.

I was absolutely fucking agape when he slammed her head against the post and then did it again and then did it again. I wish it had paid off better.

Well, he gave her a t-shirt, right?

I didn't think that was about her cavernous vagina so much as how long it takes to get her off.

I liked where Cockblock started, but the violence was pretty off-putting.

I thought the violence belonged there as an aspect of the sort of thought process and priorities of people who throw around terms like "cockblock."

I agree; I just wish there had been more of a comedic button with it -- to steal Frayed Knot's canonical examples of Schumer hitting it out of the park, the jokes just kept piling up in both the FNL no-rape parody and the 12 Angry Men parody. In this one, it was just "Oh, look, violence... okay, moving on..."
