The Fix

Right-wing Americans will hate this show, just look at the votes already. Left-wings might think it's bizarre. Touchy and "trendy" people would go "what did they just say???" While I feel more like a realist, this just gets up as the "about time this gets to be nailed and joked about!" Worth watching indeed! Please let us have more in the future!

This is a UK style panel show, targeted at the US audiences, viewable worldwide on Netflix.

It covers topics such as gun control, drug taking and global warming, which are very touchy subjects in the US, so I imagine those are the reasons this show is getting bad reviews on this site. It mocks them, insults gun owners and global warming deniers. It highlights racial and sexist discrimination and makes jokes that will offend many strict opinionated people.

However it does this while not swearing, and while it does have many sexual references, it is edited to not go too far.

This is a stand-up comedy show with five comedians. All five are on one side of the argument (against) and so if you are expecting a discussion, this is not the show for that. It is about trying to make you laugh, and in that, they succeed.

However anyone with the opposite opinion to there's, will probably be more angry and amused.

For UK audiences this is a GREAT show. For American audiences, this is still a great show but they need to be able to laugh at their own society. We Brits are use to self-mocking, which happens a lot in this show. So most Americans will probably hate it. Canadians will love it though!

Right so I was bored on a Saturday night with nothing to do and I thought .. why not ? I blitzed through the whole series. D.L is so laid back that sometimes you're not sure he's awake and then BANG says something so funny it's worth him looking disinterested at times lol ! Katherine Ryan is so quick, witty, hilarious and always on message. Jimmys annoying laugh becomes bearable as he steers the ship into some very funny moments. . . BUT the best part is how they seem to be very conscious of keeping the panel diverse across gender and race. The guests are hilarious and the premise is is perfect. Well done.

My headline pretty much sums it up. I'm a fan of both Jimmy Carr and Katherine Ryan with D. L. Hughley being a new to me.

The concept of the show is discussion other social topics, amongst comedians in the industry with a comical conclusion at the end of the show. Episodes achieve varying results depending on which guest stars are on the show, leaving some funnier than others.

If you're wanting something easy to watch that's not to be taken too seriously - while talking about serious social topics then this is the cure for them days where you've worked an long shift at work and want to zone of of the worlds problems.. by hearing a spin on the worlds problems!

The Fix is great! The topics discussed are real and current issues and the ridiculous fixes are hilarious. I haven't seen any of the British shows mentioned, so I can't compare them to this one and ruin it. I don't find ruthlessness funny, so I prefer this "less edgy" Jimmy Carr. The comedians are funny and really playing into their stereotypes, which I love. I also love Mona's awkwardness. It's a perfect watch if you're not right wing and don't need mean jokes to have a chuckle.
