I'm really surprised that this series lasted for two seasons.There's nothing the executives at Comedy Central hate more than a show that is actually funny.Well maybe there is, they also hate shows that aren't anti-white.The Offensive didn't waste one minute complaining that whites are evil.Nor did they spend any time preaching that gays are awesome.They ignored the golden rules of Comedy Central and yet somehow this great show slipped through the cracks and got a second season.I noticed that most of the reviewers here didn't like this show.I bet if you read the rest of their reviews they probably all love Friends and Will & Grace.They probably think Jay Leno is a comedic genius and Ellen is just super.See what I'm saying here?They're all idiots.

The show has horrible jokes, its very dry and plain boring. Its been done before by such great comedians like Dave Chappelle. Even Tosh from Tosh.o sounds funnier because he sounds like an asshole and has sarcasm on his voice. This guy just sounds plain boring. Its one of those really bad new generic shows. He cant tell a joke at all. Don't need to watch this show and waste your time. Its pretty repetitive after a while as well so it becomes much more boring. I don't know how this show is even running or who even watches it. The jokes suck, the guy in the show sucks, everything about this show sucks. This show should get canceled and give someone else the time this show is put on comedy central.

People either love or hate this show because it's not for everybody. That's why so many people give it poor reviews that it doesn't deserve. You have to be okay with laughing at what you think is funny and not just what society approves as comedy. You also have to be intelligent to get some of the jokes. It's "morally wrong" to laugh at death and other tragedies so people don't give it a chance. The reason it's hilarious isn't because it's shocking but because all of the jokes are very well thought out, well written and executed perfectly. Sure the content is awful tragedies but the fact that he can take something shocking and tell clever jokes in an endearing fashion is impressive and hilarious. It takes a lot of courage to do what he does and not care what others think. It's currently the best show on comedy central.

Anthony Jeselnik, the supposed "Prince of Darkness," is as boldly arrogant as he is devilishly intelligent. Utilizing one-liners - greatly influenced by comedic greats Mitch Hedberg & Steven Wright - Jeselnik's offensive and scathingly dark sense of humor isn't for everyone. Something that he is aware of, Jeselnik himself - in his 2013 special, "Caligula" - proclaimed, "I assume you all knew who you were coming to see tonight. But if you didn't, you sure as sh*t know now." Anddd that was after rape joke number two. Really, the show is not for everyone, but if you do have a widespread sense of humor - or a pretty basic level of intelligence - it's hard not to only appreciate the jokes, but hold back your laughter as well. Many will label it as profane, unnecessary, unfunny, malicious, and even tasteless, but this is a brilliant new program that showcases the brightest - or darkest depending how you wanna call it - future of comedy.
