The Jim Jefferies Show

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.

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.

Well the show seems like it could be funny. Dude has great humility, funny persona but do we really need another trump bashing show? I mean can we have a regular political comedy show that doesn't make things painfully obvious where they stand? Comedy takes no sides but all the political comedy shows are clearly one sided. Not really a trump supporter but just getting tired of hearing all the bashing.

I give this show a 09 out of 10. The reason is because it blends real hard hitting, important, recent and at times controversial news stories with Jim's AMAZING witty and sarcastic humor. He also, makes the news understandable and able to be listened too by people that normally cannot stand listening to the regular news because it can be very boring. Jim isn't afraid of the hot button things to talk about either and I LOVE that!! He is new to this hosting thing and I am sure he will settle in AMAZINGLY after a few episodes. You could tell he was nervous on the pilot episode. He clearly cares about the USA ad all of us in it clearly. I couldn't give it a hard 10 yet because the topics he discusses in certain episodes just need more time and aren't able to be properly untangled within the time he is given. I would love to see an entire hour of this show instead of 30 minutes. I don't want to write this too long because people will lose interest and stop reading. So I will close with the fact that this is an AMAZING SHOW AND I LOVE IT VERY MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you are a Trump supporter and believe big oil should be in charge of the environment, mexicans belong on the other side of a big wall and teachers need guns you probably wont appreciate this. He dumbs down the humour for the US market quite a bit but there is nuance that a higher class of fan will still appreciate. Due to the once a week slot structure you'll see a few jokes that the other late night stars made first but he often has a fresh take on them which is pretty difficult in such a convoluted market. Jim is doing a very decent job as he tries to find his feet as an established late night host. You can tell when he hasn't been putting the effort in, but towards the end of the season one he was on his game more often than not. With the season 2 extension we should see some more money thrown his way, hopefully he invests in a stronger writing team and graphic department which should add up to way more laughs. Good on ya Jimbo. Looking forward to season 2!
