Adam Ruins Everything

It's a decent show. It's not perfect. I'm middle of the road when it comes to politics, in fact, I HATE politics!

--Please look at how almost ALL the bad reviews are coming from conservative people.--

For pure, entertainment, this show is great. Maybe not everything is 100% Factual, as always, look for yourself, using more than one source.

Have a great day! :-)

I love this show not only because its entertaining but because it does what I think a lot of people and shows are afraid to do: debunk social norms and show the insanity to where a lot of our American customs originated. If you see anything negative about this show its because someone was offended by something they discussed on the show and explained how silly the practice of that particular belief was/is. For example: The show explains how we've been brainwashed as a society/culture to believe diamonds are the greatest way to show a woman you love but in fact they are "intrinsically worthless".

This show teaches people to ask themselves: "why do we do this? who started this custom and why is it social norm now?" Its truly fascinating. Its well worth the watch. The host/show backs up all his facts by displaying source on the screen so that you may look into it yourself.

The host comes off a little condescending at first but if you think about it its almost impossible to explain something to someone when they thought they knew "how" "why" & "where/when" in the first place. I am more than happy to admit that I did NOT know most of the things they teach on the show! That is why I love watching though....I just keep learning so much and you will too!!!

I think that this show is one of the greatest informational shows that is on the air right now. They deliver a lot of fascinating information in a very humorous way. Watching these episodes has already changed my view of some of our customs and ways. Adam Conover is fantastic in this series. How he can be hilarious, smart and sometimes sad is what makes this show watchable. it really is a shame that this show isn't more popular, but I hope that it gains more of an audience. Or as the new york times said "Adam Conover's new television series isn't the first dedicated to the fine art of debunking, but it's one of the most entertaining."

There are so many cons, misconceptions, and deceitful propaganda that hundreds of millions of people just accept as correct and truth.

This show is by far the greatest exploiter of these falsehoods. It simplifies the deception into ways which anyone can understand.

Many of these subjects are painfully HUGE problems with society that have become commonly accepted.

It's like a reworked version of Mythbusters, but instead of urban, cinematic, and legendary myths this show exposes major falsehoods of everyday life in which majority of humans don't even think to question.

Bottom line: Brilliant, incredibly informative, funny, and the only good show TruTV has ever broadcast.

Adam Ruins Everything is hosted by the decidedly unusual Adam Conover. Rather than cover that fact he revels in it, making himself the butt of many of the jokes on his social awkwardness, Whether he is like that in real life or not, it's highly entertaining and nice to see him not taking himself too seriously.

The show presents LOTS of facts in a quick and breezy, and most importantly, entertaining way so that the average viewer won't feel they are getting information overload or be bored. And as unusual as he is, Adam is an engaging host all the way. And this first season he has picked some great topics to cover: from airport security and charitable donations to summer break, nutrition (one of my fave eps), sex (another fave)to, inevitably, death. Are all the facts presented 100% accurate? Probably not, and Adam even admits that during one of the final episodes, but they do make you think while they amuse and that's important. Too often we take things as fact because they are the status quo, when we should be questioning them. Adam and the show do this for us and it opens up the discussion. Don't accept the way Hollywood or the government present things, do some checking on your own.

The connecting tissue of Adam tormenting various people by ruining stuff they like or took for granted, is hilarious, or in the final episode, downright scary. The supporting cast is a lot of fun and I hope to see Adam and crew back for a second season. Its been a long time since I've enjoyed a non-fiction TV show this much.
