Tim Dillon: This Is Your Country

From start to finish I was in tears, I'm a New Zealander and have been listening to Tim Dillon's podcast for the last three years and when I heard he had a show coming to Netflix I was more than excited! Tim absolutely kills the crowd work and has a special talent of making jokes off the top of his dome. The only downside to this special I could say is it was too short, I feel an hour 30 mins would of been great I felt I was just wanting more but apart from that it was an absolute blast from start to finish. Conclusion tim Dillon being Tim Dillon is all you need Netflix, let him have as many specials and shows as he wants to make!

This special was absolutely hysterical! For those who may not know, Tim Dillon is a professional comedian that has a very successful podcast where he gives sarcastic and absurdist takes on politics and pop culture. By taking the skills he has honed on his podcast and fusing them with a genre of television that already skews to the absurd, Dillon has created a monster hit. The structure of the show is set up similar to Maury, with multiple segments of people with various problems hashing them out with their loved ones in front of us. However, in This Is Your Country, the jokes start flying right away. Between the on-stage drama, Dillon's commentary, audience participation, and the hilariously crafted on-screen graphics there's hardly a moment to catch your breath between the laughs. I won't spoil any of the specifics, you'll just have to tune in yourself to experience what your country has become.

Netflix, if you're reading this, let Tim make more of these!

I'm a big Tim Dillon fan and felt like he's the perfect fit for this type of show. We really need trashy talk shows to make a comeback with Jerry Springer passing away. He had fantastic crowd work and even when he broke character it made the moments even that much more hilarious. The diverse number of issues addressed between each guest was also fantastic. The show didn't have a theme at all so it was pretty cool to jump in between the issues. He also got a great crowd involved which added to the hilarity of the situations. I'm sad this didn't get much advertising and probably won't get another installation but I believe Netflix would miss out by not shooting another one. 4/5 stars.

This was great, yes or yes?

Tim Dillon is a sharp shooter and this show is deeply nihilistic, yet deeply human at the same time, an homage to the 90s tv shows exposing people's dirty little secrets.

I'm torn between wanting more and being afraid of feeling exceedingly dirty watching it for longer, so I'd say the editing is on point, and we can see as credits roll that they shot much more.

I hope Tim drops some weight so we can enjoy his shenanigans for many decades, his tongue is sharp and he's probably in my top 3 comedians right now.

He does fake business, now a fake tv show.

Life in the big city.

If you're a kid of the 90's and remember staying home sick to watch Jerry Springer, Maury Povich, or Steve Wilkos while your parents were at work, this is the show for you. Reminds you of everything that was good about those shows without the constraints of cable television. This should be a weekly show for all the "sick" kids and filthy pigs. Netflix should do the right thing and give this show a full season! Tim Dillon has the ability to make these wild situations better with his quick wit and sharp tongue. It's everything that is great and dispicable about America rolled into one hilariously raunchy special.
