Last Week Tonight with John Oliver

Another smug liberal prick

I have a Love-Hate relationship with this show: Love, for the deft, analytical approach it mostly takes towards *issues rarely provided his platform (Miss America, FIFA, and U.S. Nuclear weapons, for example, are all inspired segments). Hate, because when Oliver and his team approach *individuals they don't like, the jabs become superficial, spiteful, and ultimately meaningless. These rare occasions typify an aloof, smug liberal stereotype, out of touch when all evidence says they shouldn't be.

This is the definition of propaganda. There is not a single person on TV who is more politically biased than him, even on Fox News. The worst part is, the majority of his fans don't even think there is any bias and take everything he says as fact. This is not a news show, this is an opinion show. Watching this show to get an opinion is one thing, but watching this as a form of news is how you end up looking at the world through a keyhole.

concentrated libtardism unfotunately. de facto propaganda with usual dirty commies tricks : false arguments pined to one side -> "debunking" n "ridiculing" by a host ->background laughter. repeat 50 times. conditioning at finest. avoid if u r not pavlovian dog already.

Formulaic "edgy" political show that occasionally hits a homer but often hits a ground out to the pitcher. John Oliver isn't as funny as he thinks he is and his annoying British accent can be insufferable at times. His report on accepting refugees is one of the saddest things in hindsight. At least issue an apology you coward

Sometimes the premise is flawed, the research bad, sometimes it’s overly sensationalist on a thin premise. He lost me when he was concern trolling over “Is Bernie Sanders a socialist menace”? But overall, despite that, the show is generally well done. If you accept that it has as strong of a propagandist bias as RT. Oliver is also generally hilarious when not being too scatological with his humor.

Best show of its kind, and it's not close.

A perfect show for someone with an attention problem, someone who can't think for themselves, and/or someone who just prefers an anti-intellectual, anti-logical echo chamber. Oliver is smug, condescending, shrill, arrogant, self-deprecating, unfunny, and extraordinarily obnoxious. If you're someone who values logic, this show will drive you insane. Oliver and his propaganda is arguably one the biggest problems with our society. This is not news, it's opinion, and they're mostly all very bad.

The most depressing comedy news show currently on the air, which I mean as an utmost compliment. Oliver does a better job than even CNN in highlighting and bringing to public attention many of the injustices in both the US and abroad, and he does it a completely accessible, digestible manner, and some episodes are even genuine triumphs in investigative journalism. Not always funny, but always entertaining and informative.

The pandering is becoming increasingly annoying.
