That Damn Michael Che

Genuinely good sketch comedy shows are very very rare and trying to compare every one of them to Chappelle's Show is just an impossible bar to set. That being said, even Chappelle's Show had a few bits that didn't land either, it's just that it had more hits than misses and the high points were some all time greats.

So no, That Damn Michael Che isn't the next Chappelle's Show, but it's better than any other sketch comedy show I've seen since. It often feels like they forgot how to make a good sketch comedy seen since it and Little Britain finished back in the mid-2000s. This is the first sketch comedy series I've found since that gave me some regular moments where I would crack up laughing at some of the bits. I also like the way that some of the bits continue through the entire episode.

Well done Michael Che, I hope there are a few more series left in the tank.

A fantastic, creative take on political America. Michael Che's personal opinions are the center of the show, and it is very remeniscint of his stand up.

Really enjoyed season one! Season two is on a whole nother (level). Laughed to tears completely until my ribs hurt! Took me back to the days of Richard played real low on album in the basement with friends till our laughter gave us up.

Theme alone is a very funny spoof. In the under currents it is great comedy! Che is hitting on a lot of issues all at once but with the wit that true comedians have and give us to move thru today's social storms.

If you have dry, off hand humor, this show will be funny to you. If you're kind of uptight & prefer fluffy humor, you won't. Like... these reviews were so dramatic lol but it's actually funny. This isn't SNL, this is specific to michael che. He made it clear that he has a dry sort of humor so idk why you'd expect anything different from HIS OWN SHOW. I laugh on every episode & i don't feel it's a ripoff of the chappelle show. I like dave chappelle too but michael che is his own comedian. Comparison is a thief of enjoyment!

Yet the show is consistently 80% awful, juvenile and often downright lame. It confuses me why there is such great talent and great writers - this show and 'I Think You Should Leave' are the 2 best examples of how great ideas, great writing and great execution make for a great show. I worried that this might not be consistent, onlyb ecause I was howling laughing through the first episode but it really maintains the great writing - and it's so great seeing the comedians featured.
