this show brings out comedians and gives them a shot at fame. there have been incredible talents like ron funches, doug benson, weird al an so on. to expect that this was "child safe" or not "toilet humor" is totally on the viewer. if you don't enjoy comedy, then don't watch this. If you have an open mind about political,pop culture, social, and maybe personal issues, this show is for you. It doesn't deserve a bad review, you do. It is all about comedians creating a quick laugh, a "lol", or a joke that makes you think. If you don't like the show, stay off this thread. I don't go on websites saying how pineapple on pizza is an awful topping and I try to make you feel bad about it because i don't like it myself. Who cares? stop wasting your time, buttheads. Do something better with your time.

...actually, nevermind this other commenter - they obviously have a problem with something that some people like to call "humor". The show if f**kin' hilarious and has won awards, but hey, it's not for everyone. If it was, it would be called America's Funniest Home Videos, and would thereby be relegated blah status.

Well, it seems that nearly everyone else who reviewed is trying to be just plain too serious about this show. Hardwick is super as a quick talking host with a great laugh and sense of what's totally absurd, off the wall, and nuts! If you rad his biography, you'll understand that Chris comes from a crazy personal place and survived. He has learned the value of humor and lots of silliness. The scoring system is meant to be just as crazy. Who cares who wins?! Jumping around with the random scores just adds to the unexpected. Afterall, comedic responses are best when spontaneous without explanation needed. Explaining a joke always ruins it! The comedians are often just as 'out there', but still makes everyone laugh even if they don't 'get it'! After a long day, it's the perfect show to just let go, relax with silliness. LOVE IT!!

Chris Hardwick for president! His charm, witt, and nerdom are powerful and had me instantly obsessed from the get. Add a slew of other insanely funny comedians and actors (some of my biggest idols included), add a dash of genius and well thought out theme of a fake game show with pointless points, and bam! You got yourself the most enjoyable thing I've EVER watched. Why they discontinued it, I don't know, but whatever the reason it wasn't good enough! Give it back!!!

I read the reviews of the people who hated this show and they all have a common thread, they all loved Tosh.0 . I am not going to disparage their opinions, they are entitled to have them heard, but I wanted to clarify why the rest of the viewing audience should tune in. The host, Chris's delivery is stellar. His comedic communication and ability to actually relate to the viewer is a skill set that is rarely seen on television. As far as the Internet being the source for riffing, it works well, it provides a constantly changing source of information to joke about which keeps the show fresh. This format also provides a platform for comedians, writers and actors to actually have fun, and it shows, the energy is infectious. Finally, after a crappy day of work and a crappier day of ingesting bilious news, this program provides a nice grounding base and a way to laugh before bed, which is priceless. Will there be the occasional show that misses? Of course, but those shows are still better than anything else on television.
