Ziwe

If you're not familiar w Ziwe's work i guess I understand why you wouldn't like it. But its actually a really mild version of what she does on her IG. Ziwe is funny and fresh and I really love this show :)

Ziwe is delightfully nuanced and embraces satire for all its worth. With her finger on the cultural pulse, Ziwe delivers clever quips, holding back no punches. Whether her guests are caught off-guard and fumble their words, or they sit in uncomfortable silence, each moment is jam-packed with subtext and humour.

She has a great list of guest stars and commenters that work well with her and their respective topics, and I can't wait to see who else shows up!

I don't believe in telling people how to watch a show or movie, but I will say this - if you are closed-minded and don't understand subtext, this not the show for you.

I have read very negative reviews before I watched the first episode, and it does NOT reflect my own opinion of the show.

This is a quick-witted show with a constant underlying sarcastic comedy that may pass the heads of some viewers. The first episode of the show offered several different parts ranging from a musical perfomance, interviews and skits. The show has a modern comedic stance that deals with racism, feminism politics etc. I felt that it also made fun of the format of interviews and the out-of-context ways some parts of the entertainment industry twist words.

Also, they way they play with serious issues of the present day such the Karen-interview with Karen-named women was both fun, entertaining and makes a comment on the usage of a name to identify with a racial injustice.

Looking forward to the next episode!

Not sure why all the hate? This is a show for liberals who are able to take a little criticism through the lens of self-deprecating humor. Sometimes that entails making self-proclaimed activists and celebrities squirm, sometimes that means a cringey song, and sometimes that means having more serious (but still hilarious) conversations with politicians and civil rights icons. If that's not right up your alley, don't watch. But most of the negative reviews are people who would not enjoy this show because they are either conservative or so entrenched in performative allyship, they can't take any criticism. This is for the anti-woke progressive. Please, if you are not the intended audience, don't try to skew the reviews. This show is phenomenal!

The bad reviews are wrong, this show is so funny.

Ziwe is so naturally funny and talented.
