I hope this is a turning point, from which Nikki increasingly introduces serious reflections beyond her own libido. This special considers suicide and death in an apex of poignancy for Nikki. Despite her mastery of the art of the joke, the minimal dimensionality of her subject matter has kept her from greatness in my opinion. Her jokes are as good as anyone's, all about one topic. I hope she expands her persona and takes a seat among the greats.
A lot of her jokes try too hard and are too repetitive, thus predictable. Sometimes I can tell based on the setup how Nikki will milk a joke. Then it feels forced without reward. But I can't expect every utterance to be fresh. There are plenty of fresh ones.
