I was going through a very tough time in my life where it felt like I had forgotten how to laugh or smile and like some kind of miracle, I stumbled upon a Nathan for You clip on Youtube. It was the poop frozen yogurt episode. When I watched the clip I knew I had to watch the entire episode and just binge on Nathan for You. It felt so foreign to laugh, yet amazing after not doing so for weeks. I remember crying after watching a few episodes, not because I was sad, but because this show had made me laugh and actually feel good after thinking I would never feel that way again as I was heavily considering suicide. There is so much silly absurdity in life that make for a good laugh and this show helped me see it. After watching this show, I remembered what funny was and it was a refreshing feeling. I totally identified with Nathan Fielder's character and love the way he isn't afraid to say things that would make others uncomfortable. He's a rebel. I remembered that there are people in this world that enjoy making others feel happy. There isn't one episode I didn't like, I absolutely love them all. This show really picked me up form the hole I was in, and after that I began to see the lighter side of life.
This may sound nuts, crazy or unbelievable to you, but it really helped me and it was like something clicked in my brain. I really hope this show doesn't get cancelled and that Nathan may continue to bring us joy and laughter. If the show does unfortunately come to an end, I hope he continues to do what he loves and make people laugh. I could go on for at least another hour on how this show made me feel good and gave me hope in life, but I will cut it here.
It's safe for me to say that Nathan Fielder saved my life. If I ever meet him, I will shake his hand and thank him for a job well done. I love you Nathan Fielder! 11/10 stars!

The freshest show in decades. Comedy central really dropped the ball promoting this genius, clever and masterfully written show. The last episode left me speechless. I am now going through what could be considered heroin withdraw since I can't get my Nathan fix anymore. I hate him for not doing more with the show. But Love him for what he has accomplished. Can't wait to see what he does next. Hopefully next time it will be better promoted. Support this guy.

Nathan for You became my favorite show on television after watching just 2 episodes and I've now seen each episode 3+ times. His deadpan and awkward approach in combination with his hilarious ideas are what really makes it funny. It's a brand of humor that I've never really seen before. I'm 27 years old and it's tough to find a show that both me and my parents can enjoy. My wife, brother, and all of my friends laugh hysterically while watching it. Even the raunchy parts of the show, he somehow manages to take it and make it seem innocent. Best of all, Nathan pulls off clean humor better than any comedian I've seen in a long time. All I can say is it better get renewed!!!
The hardest I've laughed in 10 years!... Three times!
Seriously, 10 years ago I had to leave the theater so I could stop laughing, and BREATHE. This show got me to that point at least twice during the season.
Nathan's magic comes from one thing, and he does it masterfully: HE COMMITS!!!
You can't believe the things he says and does with a straight face and impeccable wit. My favorite is when he messes with the very people that we all know are just begging to be messed with (the uptight, Napoleon-complex, overly-sensitive, D-Bags!).
You're like, "I can't believe he just said that."... "I can't believe that guy doesn't hit him."
But he gets away with these things because of his unflappable commitment (people don't know what to do!).
If I was Comedy Central, I'd have a "Season" for every season. (And, I'd be in heaven)
P.S. Episode 7 of Season 1 strays from the magic formula with something completely different, but they're back too the magic in Ep. 8.

I was hesitant to start this show but i am SOO glad i did, honestly i would put in the top ten best shows ever. Nathan Fielder is a comedy genius who went to business school and got really good grades, his personality carries this show. Nathan for You is one of the few shows i could constantly watch and not need a break. it is not only Hilarious, but extremely interesting how "normal" people react to these crazy circumstances that Nathan puts in front of them. I also believe the season 4 finale "Finding Frances" has to be one of the greatest episodes of any show ever, and i would pay an endless amount of money for season 5
