Have I Got News for You

But I really Enjoyed it.

Roy, I lived in Alabama for 15 years so I am legal bound to love him.

Amber, Does "Things Seth Can't Say" so I am legal bound to love her.

Micheal, Will always be Johnny Blue Jeans, so I am legal bound to love him. And who knew he was so well informed, up to date on current events, and intelligent.

Matt, is a highly regarded and respected Journalist and Commentator so I am legal bound to have no influence on him what so ever.

Robin, First African-American woman to be head writer. So I am legal bound to say she is an absolute wonder and almost old enough for me to date her. Yet I still would. (sometime rules need to be broken)

First Show and right out of the gate you picked good guest so I am legal bound to say I am going to watch it again next week.

Please Keep it up.

I didn't want to like this show, but I can't help it, I loved it. This game show is extremely clever. It's on CNN, so it's obviously left leaning but done with a great sense of humor. Roy Wood, Jr. Is so quick witted and the rest of the cast is hysterical. Michael Ian Black is brilliant, informed and funny. I love the idea that it includes the most current events and brings levity to such a crazy reality we're all dealing with for the past week. I hope they are able to keep up the freshness and the lighthearted appeal and not slide into stale repetitive content. I think it helps that they are genuine comedians that are quick on their feet to keep it high spirited and current.

At times watching the episodes I was rolling around with laughter. I've given up watching the UK version as it's become somewhat stuffy and dated with team captains now into their dotage. The younger, fresher team captains and presenter, a great mix of guests and a far broader sense of humour without the endlessly now dated pedantry of Hislop and phoning it in occasional quip from Merton makes this one far fresher, funnier and more vibrant in character.

Truly a great reimagining of the UK show with broad appeal even to UK viewers who are in tune with US politics, cultural and social references.

You might not find it as funny if you're expecting it to be a facimile of the UK format, but you'll love it if you enjoy a show where women and minorities are not always the just the token guest or presenter as is the case with the UK show.

I used to love the UK show, don't get me wrong. But they self-censor themselves so much now due to Hislop's history of ending up in litigation that it's always "oh we can't say this" and Paul Merton barely says a word most weeks now.

The US one definitely feels like a breath of fresh air in comparison.

This is a good one.

Holds the spirit of the original BBC version, but with its own unique twist.

It was smart, funny, well rounded and well written. Roy Wood Jr. As the host was absolute genius casting. They've also done a very good job picking guest team members/comedians/personalities to be on the teams.

Interestingly, this show has a unique approach in that the questions just basically provide as a jumping off point for the jokes, but they're also very interestingly constructed game play as well.

The way they approach topics is very refreshing & wonderfully light hearted.

Top notch show all around.

Love this new show. After the first episode I thought it was really funny and maybe it's a fluke so I thought let's give it a second round. Sure enough it is fantastic!

I feel like there's a bit of acting going on though, like some of these things that were pretty big news stories during the week I feel like Amber would have known about and she acts like she hadn't heard it. That said she's crazy funny. Like even when I think she's faking it and she's full of poop, she delivers her stuff spot on funny.

Michael is clearly well informed. He seems to actually know the answers to most questions but can still manage good jokes out of it. Roy does an amazing job hosting always has me laughing. What's crazy is they take all the jokes from the entire week worth of news and create new content. That's harder than you think considering all the different shows out there making jokes about the same exact topics (looking at you late night shows) and for them to come in and put together original jokes that hit is quite impressive.
