“Inside Amy Schumer” is crude yet clever
Amy Schumer didn’t waste a minute in the debut episode of her new Comedy Central show, Inside Amy Schumer. She went straight for the filthy. The very, very literally filthy. The first segment in Tuesday night’s show dealt with an actress deciding whether she should take on a role in a production, the description of which made me want to take a hot shower for a half hour and gargle repeatedly with Listerine.
