    Awkwardly funny

    Very personal, with touch of geekiness and sprinkled with awkwardness. Very different from what you see on TV today. Really enjoyed it.

    One of The Funniest Show

    I loved the show because of John's personality. While I was watching the show, I always thought that If I were there instead of him, what would I did? I would automatically judge people's weirdness and it would react awkwardly, they would get angry to me. But because of he is so nice person and he is okey with people whoever they are, whatever their opinion, weird people is cool around him. Suprisingly, I learned a good lesson from this hilarious show. Even if I don't say it directly, judging people makes it impossible for me to get along with some people, and to understand point of view.

    Absolutely love this docu-series

    Awkward, soothing, interesting, and funny often! I thoroughly enjoy listening to John Wilson and everyone else talk. There's 6 episodes so far and I really hope more gets made!

    Some kind of genius created this

    Very funny, very addictive, very creative. Rarely have I laughed out loud so often at a show. Frankly, it's almost impossible to believe that it ever got picked up by a network - it's that weirdly, wonderfully strange. Brilliant editing.

    Not for everyone but

    It's working for me. I like it. Episode 4 is my favorite so far, it was strange. I hope the episodes get even weirder as the series progresses. Curious what direction they will take it. Not sure this review makes sense, I'm stoned.
