"Hilarious"—The Boston Globe

"The best way for a Catholic Boy to spend Xmas Eve"—Michael Musto, the Village Voice

"One of the dangers of assembling a comedy show around a common theme is that the humor might end up hitting the same note over and over again. The popular "Nice Jewish Girls Gone Bad" avoids the same fate by showcasing comedians who are pointedly specific but inclusively funny."—The Onion

"Mixing touching themes with humor, raunch, attitude and sexuality makes for a full experience all around."—The Berkshire Eagle
