1-I'm sure if we pulled receipts, there's a few comics that don't have the pedigree and probably got similar deals or better from Netflix.

2-Chris Tucker. I don't care what he did in Rush Hour and Friday. His standup has sucked for yeeeeaaars and he was out the game outside of "Silver Linings Playbook" and (according to Murph, so, if true) got 2 mil from netflix in 2015 because...they liked Rush hour a lot?

3-She does have poor representation. Things shouldn't be handled this way and they could approach it better. I'm sure she's played a role in how things have gone but I'm sure 'America' has played a role in this too.

4-Netflix approached her...they should have been willing to negotiate. If she approached them, I'd say, they paid her what they thought she was worth.

5-There's a bunch of goal post moving going on in here. If you don't like her or her comedy cool, but let's stop acting like she isn't probably top 5 or hell top 3 black female comedians all-time based on pedigree. Name 4 who have accomplished more and are still active...Whoopie? Now, name 3 who do it with stand up. Exactly.

6-#5 is why I get where she says, if she takes this deal, it hurts all black female comedians after her. If they not gonna pay her on her pedigree...what could Tiffany Haddish expect?

7-Wanda Sykes just threw a bomb on the whole sitch by saying her offer was even lower. Is Margaret Cho still a big deal? What they paying Margaret? What are they paying John Mulaney? Sarah Silverman? What was Aziz getting on the first 2 specials (3rd makes sense)?

8-I could have been your cellmate is doing numbers probably and that's likely why they reached out:

...not to mention...

9a-Her last Box office movie (late 2016) was the third highest grossing film she's been in: http://www.boxofficemojo.com/people/chart/?id=monique.htm And though that film wasn't that good IMO, SHE stole the whole show and was probably why anyone liked it. AND it was comedy...not drama.

9b-Schumer's last film: http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=motherdaughter.htm

And Monique actually was only supposed to have 6 lines lol. Did more with much less.

10-Her lifetime movie gross is almost a quarter of a billion dollars

11-She still tours successfully

12-She got an Emmy nod for Bessie (2015). And has an Oscar under her belt.

Her offer should have started at 2 mil and been negotiable up to 4/5 mil.

I think the biggest issue here is marketing and representation. She needs better people in her corner but I in no way think she's wrong.
