This show is the perfect replacement for Colbert Report. Since Colbert moved and lost host edge, and Jon left us with Trevor, I've been feeling like no one was doing anything noteworthy in Late Night. I was just about to go to bed at a decent hour, when this show began. It is everything I ever wanted and more. Klepper was well trained by Stewart, and it shows every night. It's that perfect Colbert combination of political commentary and pure comedy, and its very smart. Personally, I'm just a satire lover, and this fills the recent void of smart, sharp, silly satires that are always my favorite. If I can't have old Colbert, this is the next best thing.
I've watched the show from the beginning and look forward to it every night! Great writing and the "journalists" have perfect delivery. I enjoyed Jordan Klepper on The Daily Show and I'm so glad he got his own show. Keep up the great show!
I loved this show , i wish it would still run today in 2020 .
As Jordan is one of Trumps biggest supporters , you know all the 1 scores be from humourless democrats ........
Very good cast along Jordan , Tim Baltz and Kobi Libii my favs , but i liked all the supporting cast .
Alongside the concept of this show , wich in my eyes worked very nice , i was always impressed how he managed the concluding interview with a guest to be very entertaining and throw in some good questions as well .
I had maybe 2 times i found it didnt work that well , all the other times i find Jordan did this excellent .
I was really disappointed when this show was stopped .
There surely was room to continue the fight as long as Trump is in office .
I live in europe , i dont know the time slots and programming, in other words the support by the Comedy central channel , but i imagine this was not ideal.
Then need keep in mind , people that hardly follow the news \ politics , or are from the " wrong " politcal party , will not be able to fully appreciate this show.
At times a channel must support a show for its quality and not only mind the ratings . But the choice is made to rather air a show that has less quality . but more viewers .
I was bit annoyed by the explanation of comedy central like the show did not work , and now Jordan Klepper would be better in an own show going somewhere on location , sorry to say this decision by comedy central did not work out at all .
For this type of show the rewatchabilty is very high .
I wish they brought back this show .
In my view this show should never been stopped and maybe at some time , in future , change the concept and name of the show , but keep this cast together . Too bad comedy central choose not to do so .
~ This show tries so hard to be funny and poignant but is neither. The whole nyah-nyah, I am so much brighter than you schitck is not only over done, these shallow skits offer nothing revealing unless the viewer is a total dolt.
~ The parade of guests (many I imagine are writers) is also painfully unfunny.
Jordan Klepper pretends to be a republican conservative and loyal trump supporter while being the exact opposite. I wait for every episode knowung it will make me laugh out loud every time
