Strangers with Candy

[+ Kman]

Anyone ever watch this show? I believe it originally aired on Comedy Central in the early 2000's with Amy Sedaris and a younger Stephen Colbert. The link is a PSA video of a woman that had left a life of drugs and prostitution, she is pretty outrageous, constant stream of consciousness. It also was the inspiration for the show.

The show was hysterical. Like a demented “after school special”.

 

And then to find out it’s inspired by a real person. Poor Florrie Fisher.

Funny show. The subsequent feature length film wasn't as good.

I don't think I ever saw the movie. I will try and find it.
