edendiab I love this show like I loved The Soup. I'm so happy that it exists....sometimes when I think about shows like The Bachelor or those Kardashian a**holes I think what horrible world am I living in??.....but then Joel comes along and makes fun of them and I once again I have hope for the human race. Please continue this show, Netflix (ba-bong)....I need it to brighten my day.

arthurfunaro I really enjoyed season 1. The content of season 2 is great as well. HOWEVER!!! Someone fire the post production sound mixer guy. The softest volume item on the show (most noticeable in episode 1 season 2) is Joel's voice. Are you kidding? The loudest volume item was the theme song at the end. Right in the middle were the clips. What is this, the "Joel Mchale theme song guy show"? Very unprofessional. Disappointing. And who the heck is labeling this show unscripted? It is anything but. There. I feel better.

fragya3000 A while back I used to watch Tosh.0 off and on. The comedy in the internet clips was apparent, but the host's comedy never really landed for me. It lacked any real depth, it was mostly shallow, cheap jokes. I started watching this show because I had seen a bit of The Soup before and liked it. Nearly every episode off this show has me crying, holding my gut laughing! Not only does the crew do a fantastic job of finding the right clips but Joel has great charisma and comedic delivery. Nearly every bit is not only a great gag, but also a slightly deep satire on comedy (and other) tropes. Hats off to the writer(s) of this show.

filmbufferx Few things on TV are as tedious as watching a celebrity stiffly deliver unfunny jokes while his sycophantic late night infomercial audience, excited just to be on TV, guffaws enthusiastically at absolutely everything (I've seen too many laugh-like-your-life-depends-on-it audiences in recent times). None of the jokes fly (few even get out of hangar), and the thing is, McHale looks like he knows he's not funny and his jokes are meh. His broad shoulders are nowhere near wide enough to carry a show with this sort of platform and it shows on his face as he smirks awkwardly, as if apologising to his career. Maybe that's the joke. Netflix has delivered some very good comedy, yet in recent days most of it has been ho-hum non-starters, and if the first episode of "The Joel McHale Show with Joel McHale" is anything to go by, this is a non-starter living on borrowed time.
