    I love her German mum character. It is perfection. Every line adds something, the facial expressions in addition to the lines, the tones…. The judgement. Love it. Makes me feel so much better about my mums judgement. It’s interesting to read the comments on the UA-cam shorts and see how many of us relate to growing up with German mum - even though we are not German. The writing, the acting = pure perfection.

    As a German I was surprised to hear someone doing an actually good German accent and then nail all the little cultural things even more perfectly! In US pop culture, it's like everyone is just doing their impression of some SNL characters (or more likely, an impression of an impression of an impression...). And by watching Laura, I feel pretty confident now that I've learned a lot about Italian mannerisms too...

Germans are the most nonfunny, funny people I’ve ever met in my entire life! Their complete pan faced seriousness, cut to the quick and lack of any shred of patience is what’s so hysterical and she does it perfectly!!

Laura is so spot-on in so many ways, she is always a pleasure to watch, and this interview shows how intelligent she is. People who are truly funny are also always truly intelligent as well. The German mom with the daughter who has a cold is my favorite. Wir müssen LÜFTEN … truer words were never spoken. I am not sure any German has ever voluntarily closed a window (or left a door open).

    Also, can we talk about Laura Ramos' language skills? Clearly speaks Italian, haven't seen a sketch with her speaking German but the mom character's accent and Germanisms are so good, I wouldn't be surprised if she did (native German here). Her English is excellent despite not having grown up in an English-speaking country at all and who knows what she picked up in all those countries she's lived in. Kudos! I know people who've lived in another country for 20 years and could never shed their thick accents.

    I just realized how much my german mom formed me. I hardly ever watch long videos anymore but for some reason I just watched a talk show. That is the most my german mom thing ever.
    Also she is pretty much like I anticipated, I just have to mention the interviewer did an excellent job! Not only did he have fun he also really made her comfortable and a that is a sign you are nailing it as a host ;) don’t send people out if they compliment you, your doing great

    I see this woman has been doing stage performances for years, and I just discovered her. So brilliant! One of the few I am binge watching! Great to hear her real voice and life story. As an only child in all those countries, it's no wonder she has a supra-muscular imagination developed! How did she learn to speak English with a native North American accent? Especially as a child of Europeans and spending her childhood in mainly Asian countries. Hope she talks more about her parents!

    All her characters are wonderful, but along with others here, I never tire of seeing her German mom. I had a German girlfriend, I spent two years in Germany with her, got to know her family and friends well, met many people and had many experiences on my own, and it’s impossible to overstate how accurate and FUNNY her impressions are. It’s uncanny. Thank you, Laura-and I hope you come to San Francisco sometime.

    I watch your “German Mom” clips and I am so reminded of my German Sister in Law.
    She went to Kazakhstan just after finishing her Masters Degree in applied statistics, learned Russian, also speaks Polish, English (with a German accent), French, Italian, Spanish, Arab, Czech, Hungarian and then later took a PHD in applied statistical sciences.
    Very disciplined, very smart and has also one daughter who works in the music business.
    Again I am so reminded of her, every time I watch the sketches 👍🏻😂😂😂

      I am German, been living in France for over 20 years now. My colleagues used to tell me I am very direct, I wasn't aware of it until I was told and I rather think that french people have a problem with that. I thought it was more of a personal character thing but watching her German Mom videos I realised it seems to be kind of typical German and I admit this is comforting me a lot since it's not always appreciated but I am just that way...
