Everybody's Live with John Mulaney

I love this show. I want it year-round. Is it industry-specific? Somewhat. Is it fairly LA-centric? Sure. Does it make zero sense? Of course. Am I, the audience, being slightly negged the whole time? Oh, yes, and apparently I'm into that. Look, I understand that this show is not for everyone. I won't make you watch it. But I love Mulaney's brand of meta oddity that leaves you wondering whether a joke just fell flat, or you've been set up for a meta bit that will get funnier with every episode (it's the latter). If you fall into the specific category of people in the industry, in LA, who love absurd, freewheeling, burnt-out, sober, grumpy-dad Mulaney, get ready to wonder if you're high every Wednesday night. He crushes it every time.

I absolutely love the vibe of this show, and the previous 'Everybody's In L. A'. It doesn't seem like they missed a step, being off for so long while coming back with a great set of guests to speak on the subject of lending / borrowing money. Mulaney shows that he has a very quick comedic mind in the way he handles the callers to the show. I think my favorite thing about this show continues to be the chemistry between John Mulaney and Richard Kind who is absolutely hilarious on this show. I've never been able to figure out how much of his personality is real but it doesn't matter because he's so oddly charismatic.

I hope this show has many more seasons because I really can't get enough.

Another massive Mulaney fan here. He is a top-tier, brilliant stand-up comedian, perfectly suited for SNL-both as a writer and performer. He's also a decent voice actor and an excellent talk show guest. I have a few theories (more like psychological observations) on why he excels in these areas but struggles as a talk show host or with his own sketch comedy show. However, what matters most is his mental well-being, which I believe is closely tied to the feedback he receives. There's nothing wrong with experimenting, trying new things, and striving to be great at all of them-but I never want to see him return to his old lifestyle out of desperation or a sense of failure, especially when he's already one of the best at what he does best.

I am a big fan of John Mulaney and couldn't wait to watch the first episode last night.

Once the show started, my excitement never went up. I hope they got honest reviews from their test audience because this show wasn't funny nor was it entertaining.

Even with quality guests, Michael Keaton, Joan Baez, Fred Armisen the show never picked up the pace.

The monologue bombed, the phone segment was terrible, and even Michael Keaton, Fred Armisen and cameo guest Tracy Morgan couldn't generate even a single laugh. I was bored after the phone call segment and lost interest after that. I don't know who was responsible for writing or producing his but they need to be replaced. It is a boring concept and needs to be different than the other talk shows as John Mulaney's brand of humor doesn't seem to fit with the format, clearly doesn't relate to the guests, or even resonate with the viewers.

If I was a producer I wouldn't have added my name to the credits because I would be embarrassed if I had anything to do with the show. If they don't revamp this show it won't make it past one season, even on Netflix. They did green light Meghan Markle's show so there is a chance it may be renewed, but if it bombs like this again it will be cancelled for sure.

I'll still give it another chance but if they have another episode as bad as the first one, I won't watch it again.

With a hard to bridge gap left by the best of late night, John has done an exceptional job of making each episode enjoyable without fail. Richard Kind proves himself to be even more loveable than one thought possible as John's MC, bringing along with him memorable moments each and every episode. John and Richard are national treasures, world treasures even, that we must protect at all costs.

Its a pity late night television can't sustain the daily format these days, as shown by others still lingering, as Everybody's Live brings a fresh yet familiar quality with it is viewing that cannot be missed. A wide variety of guests and subjects each week, without needing to focus solely on politics for content.
