The Opposition with Jordan Klepper

I love this show. It is a shame it was cancelled. I think it is the funniest thing Jordan Klepper has done.

The satire was brilliant and biting - especially on guns (see 'Jordan Solves').

Jordan's '400% milk' joke still cracks me up just thinking about it. At it's best this show is on a par with Colbert.

Again: Very funny - thanks Jordan.

I loved this show , i wish it would still run today in 2020 . As Jordan is one of Trumps biggest supporters , you know all the 1 scores be from humourless democrats ........ Very good cast along Jordan , Tim Baltz and Kobi Libii my favs , but i liked all the supporting cast . Alongside the concept of this show , wich in my eyes worked very nice , i was always impressed how he managed the concluding interview with a guest to be very entertaining and throw in some good questions as well . I had maybe 2 times i found it didnt work that well , all the other times i find Jordan did this excellent . I was really disappointed when this show was stopped . There surely was room to continue the fight as long as Trump is in office . I live in europe , i dont know the time slots and programming, in other words the support by the Comedy central channel , but i imagine this was not ideal. Then need keep in mind , people that hardly follow the news \ politics , or are from the " wrong " politcal party , will not be able to fully appreciate this show. At times a channel must support a show for its quality and not only mind the ratings . But the choice is made to rather air a show that has less quality . but more viewers . I was bit annoyed by the explanation of comedy central like the show did not work , and now Jordan Klepper would be better in an own show going somewhere on location , sorry to say this decision by comedy central did not work out at all . For this type of show the rewatchabilty is very high . I wish they brought back this show . In my view this show should never been stopped and maybe at some time , in future , change the concept and name of the show , but keep this cast together . Too bad comedy central choose not to do so .

I've watched the show from the beginning and look forward to it every night! Great writing and the "journalists" have perfect delivery. I enjoyed Jordan Klepper on The Daily Show and I'm so glad he got his own show. Keep up the great show!

I've only seen the first episode, and I feel like that's enough. It's not just that it had a rough start - The Colbert Report took a bit of time to get its sea legs - but that it feels like a misfire in every way.

The basic premise is that Jordan Klepper is playing an Alex Jones-style conspiracist. There are two issues that show up right away. First, it's awfully similar to the premise of the Colbert Report, which was Colbert as Bill O'Reilly, and second, Klepper is the wrong person to play the part.

Klepper, (who was good on the Daily Show) is simply not able to project the intense, insane incoherence of cynical paranoiacs like Jones and Tomi Lahren. Instead, he comes across as a smug frat boy. He would be well suited to play a slick troll like Milo Yiannopoulos, but he is unable to capture the essence of Jones the way Colbert caught the essence of O'Reilly. Instead, he seems like an "east coast liberal media elite" trying, and failing, to play a character.

The other problem is that the first episode just wasn't funny. It jumped here and there with no focus and felt like it wasn't sure what it wanted to be, and the various "reporters" did little shticky bits that felt like amateur theater.

Because of all this, I don't see much room for growth. Klepper is saddled with a concept he can't pull off. It seems unlikely he could just reverse course now, and I don't see him getting a handle on the character he presumably chose to play.

At the end of the episode, I simply thought what I thought when Trever Noah took over the Daily Show: Why not Jessica Williams? How does she not have a show? Did she get in a fight with a bigwig at Comedy Central? I just don't get it.

Jordan Klepper is a very smart and quick comedian. This show kind of comes off as a kitschy version of the Colbert Report but in the style of the Daily Show, but it works because the cast is very talented. Unfortunately it's not in the prime time slot and it's a less accessible than what precedes it so I'm not holding out much hope that it will stay on the air for very long, which would be a shame.
