That Damn Michael Che

Pretty much a modern Chappelle show and it's hilarious. We needed this right now for comedy. Comedians are the ones that might get us through the woke cancel culture.

Yet the show is consistently 80% awful, juvenile and often downright lame. It confuses me why there is such great talent and great writers - this show and 'I Think You Should Leave' are the 2 best examples of how great ideas, great writing and great execution make for a great show. I worried that this might not be consistent, onlyb ecause I was howling laughing through the first episode but it really maintains the great writing - and it's so great seeing the comedians featured.

I rarely watch SNL so I didn't really know Michael Che well. I saw him with Seth Meyers on his show and I was convinced to check out this series. Glad I did.

I like that each episode has a recurring theme that they play around with like jazz improvisation. I'm on episode 3 as I write this and I've already laughed out loud (Yes, you can actually write that all the way out) several times. What would be mind-bogglingly absurd for most people (Whites, and anyone living where I do in Europe) is somehow routine for American Blacks-like taking the train to the hospital after a gunshot wound because the ambulance is too expensive.

"Know what I'm saying?" It's more like a comma. Now I know.

If you have dry, off hand humor, this show will be funny to you. If you're kind of uptight & prefer fluffy humor, you won't. Like... these reviews were so dramatic lol but it's actually funny. This isn't SNL, this is specific to michael che. He made it clear that he has a dry sort of humor so idk why you'd expect anything different from HIS OWN SHOW. I laugh on every episode & i don't feel it's a ripoff of the chappelle show. I like dave chappelle too but michael che is his own comedian. Comparison is a thief of enjoyment!

Michael Che does a half hour comedy show dealing with real world issues and with his style of sardonic humor to outlandish levels.

I know Michael Che only from SNL. I don't watch his standup. Still, I get his sense of humor and this show is all him. At least, it has his brand of comedy. I don't know how much of his life he's using. It is serious with the material but he spins it with wild humor. It lasted two seasons of only six episodes each. The obvious comparison is Atlanta or Chapelle. This is not quite up to that level. It is not as artistic as Atlanta or as hilarious as Chapelle. It is still very good.
