Reviews

Eric Danger This quickly became one of my favorite shows if not my absolute favorite. Fans of John Oliver, Trevor Noah, Bill Maher and/or Seth Meyers will love it. Jim covers a wide range of topics and provides an informative, yet amusing, perspective on them. It's good to have another voice of reason on television, and somehow comedians have become the main voices of reason these days with mainstream media outlets becoming increasingly unreliable and untrustworthy. Much like his stand-up performances, his comedy on the show may offend some viewers who can't take a joke. In other words, if you're one of those overly sensitive, die-hard Trump supporters who starts sobbing and griping whenever you hear a critical joke about Trump, this show isn't for you. Jim is going to unapologetically call out Republicans, Democrats and anything else that is silly or illogical in the US.
Frederic Raspe I like this addition to the political comedy scene a lot, if you know Jefferies stand-up show, you will get a less krass approach to the topics he usually covers, but still with a lot of whit. Sometimes you really have to pay attention to get the whispered lines or remarks on the side, that give the Jefferies flavor to the show. This will not be for everyone, but I recommend everyone to watch this, because even if you do not agree on many levels, there is something to take away in every episode, sometimes it requires to read between the lines.
David As an avid fan of Daily Show and Last Week Tonight I have long been waiting for a another show in the same league but with a different flavor of comedy, and an alternative perspective.Jim Jefferies delivers a witty but often deeply insightful look at news and world issues.
drjgardner Jim Jeffries is so funny you can barely sit still. Its irreverent, topical, savage, and spares no one. Jeffries is far ranging, with interviews of a Queensland Australia Senator, and the Ambassador to Azerbeigan. Of course he turns his attention to Trump now and then, but it's not endlessly dwelling on Trump's foibles.Along with the funny stuff, Jeffries presents lots of real statistics about important subjects (health care, climate change, racism).It's the funnies show on at the moment, and each episode gets funnier and funnier. His latest episode, about people who go on phony trophy hunts, is not merely hilarious, it is thoughtful and well reasoned.
