TelevisionFuck yeah public access TV. Bring back the public access network.
Wait, I think I just got a new idea for the plot of bee movie 4
i legitimate thought given jeff daniels was there the fire marshall would be jim carrey
Oh my word that was bloody hilarious. Funnier than any of his ‘regular’ shows I’ve seen.

Best thing I've seen in decades.
This was amazing. Genevieve is a treasure. Also can’t believe they actually did that at the end.
I don't over analyze it. It was a good show.
I see now why they typically film in front of an audience. All his jokes are just followed by long silences.
I loved Last Week Tonight during the pandemic because the lack of an audience let the jokes have time to land.
I think that was deliberate. He has been doing comedy since forever and knows his timing.
That's probably more about him being used to that pacing than anything else 🤷♂️ he's been doing it in front of an audience and has been required to pause like that for years
Yes, not just on the Late Show, but he was in front of an audience on The Colbert Report and The Daily Show too. That's almost 30 years delivering jokes to an audience for TV.
Gotta leave time for applause. Or for the slow ones to figure it out. Or drumroll. Or sound effect. Or on screen image. Or, sometimes; for the joke to marinate and sink in ~ if it's deep
I felt the complete opposite. The late night shows almost seem like a laugh track because they're told when to laugh. If they don't feel like laughing they clap. I like the quiet of this. I really hope they continue to do this, it's perfect. I immediately thought they should go around to different public access places and do similar things. It would be fun to watch.
I appreciate not being told when to laugh, but to laugh when I think something is funny. I'm 10 minutes into the show and I have only chuckled, but this is a genius ploy, well written and perfectly executed. All things considered, no notes.
As with all comedy, it exists within context. So far, this is solid.
Edit: now that they are huffing helium, I am genuinely laughing.
Yup. Hilarious is a big stretch
