Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj

Been watching him since his college days on YouTube about a decade ago. Couldn't be more proud that he has his own show on Netflix. He has worked hard for this and was funny every step of the way. If you liked his material on The Daily Show, the '17 correspondents dinner, or his standup tour, then you'll like Patriot Act. People are going to compare him to John Oliver, complain that he's too political, he's not original, or about the use of his hands (I see you 1 star review). But let's be real: he brings his own perspective and presents the facts in a time where blatant lies are alternative facts. Can't wait for next week's episode.

Intellectually stimulating, funny, and entertaining. It's a new perspective on matters we already hear about on the news. Very well researched topics. The host and the writers are doing an amazing job. The show has credibility and I?m hooked :).

This show feels very much like a labor of love for Minhaj, mixing political satire with a dash of stand-up, making for an absolute innovative treat of a show marinated with an Asian-Muslim flare that can only make for a more inclusive experience for viewers. A home run for Netflix for picking it up.

It was always clear in Hasan Minhaj's appearances on The Daily Show, in his comedy specials and even in interviews that he has a certain vision and a message that he means to send. It always seemed like he cared about informing viewers in different aspects of politics, immigrant culture, etc. in the funniest way possible This show is just that but with a bigger budget and more screen time. If you enjoyed his work before, you'll LOVE this. If you didn't, check it out anyway, what do you have to lose.

The show is amazing. It's smart, funny, disturbing and critical. Hasan Minaj is absolutely fantastic. Now.. WHY? Why do you add this absolutely ridiculous canned laughter to the show? If a joke works, it works.. if it blows.. it blows. We are adults and we live in 2018, not 1970. PLEASE drop the laugh track.. if you can't make it without the artificial laugh.. you'll probably not going to make it to the next season.. and that would be such a shame, because the show is really good.
