The Jeselnik Offensive

This show is not funny at all, I laugh more watching an episode of 16 and pregnant. This has got to be one of the worst shows on CC! This guy might be funny in real life, but he is far from it on TV. I can literally sit though a whole episode and not laugh once. How did this guy get his own TV show!!! This is just rubbish! I don't understand why this guy is on TV at all? He is awkward and not funny at all. I guess I'll just have to get off my fat lazy ass and change the channel now, thanks comedy central for providing me with a night of entertaining TV and funny laughs only to have my night end with this horrible show on your channel.

What's the easiest way to be "funny"? Use sad current events to get a reaction. I find that his panel is usually much more funnier than him.. a couple of good shows got canceled because of this guy. His jokes are just plain stupid/ simple and obviously seeking a cheap laugh. Just like tonight.. he interviews a guy that deals with dead bodies. So what does he ask?! "Do you have sex with the bodies?".. Stick to doing "Roasts". You aren't that funny. I laughed a few times but overall it's just a cheap laugh. It's like the first person to make fun of 9/11. Sure it broke the ice, but it was probably thought to be a good attention grabber. Amy Shummer and Jeselnik should not have shows. It's just not funny. Remember er this is just my opinion.

Like other reviews have said, jeselnik was funny in roasts, but this show is just trying to be even edgier than tosh. And it is instead, just....really bad. I'm quite easily entertained and quite hard to offend, and this show is somehow outside both of those boundaries. Distasteful can be funny. To the right audience. But, he is distasteful without being funny. When clips come on at the end or before my dvr recordings now, I rush to ff. it's simply awful. (Seriously, I'm trying to think of other shows I found distasteful or terribly unfunny, and I'm having trouble. This may very well be my only bad review ever. No, wait-- that Two Broke Girls show. That's pretty bad.)

Anthony Jeselnik, the supposed "Prince of Darkness," is as boldly arrogant as he is devilishly intelligent. Utilizing one-liners - greatly influenced by comedic greats Mitch Hedberg & Steven Wright - Jeselnik's offensive and scathingly dark sense of humor isn't for everyone. Something that he is aware of, Jeselnik himself - in his 2013 special, "Caligula" - proclaimed, "I assume you all knew who you were coming to see tonight. But if you didn't, you sure as sh*t know now." Anddd that was after rape joke number two. Really, the show is not for everyone, but if you do have a widespread sense of humor - or a pretty basic level of intelligence - it's hard not to only appreciate the jokes, but hold back your laughter as well. Many will label it as profane, unnecessary, unfunny, malicious, and even tasteless, but this is a brilliant new program that showcases the brightest - or darkest depending how you wanna call it - future of comedy.

This show will NOT resonate with everyone; its not that broad. As you can tell from most of the reviews, it's a love or hate situation. Which, if you've ever seen an interview with Anthony Jeselnik, is what he's going for. He's not trying to play it safe, or avoid offending anyone.

It starts from the premise that Anything can be funny. NO subject should be off limits. If you are good with that proposition, there's a good chance you'll like this show.

I miss it greatly and lament its passing. Anthony's stand up is great. I'd love to see him get another shot on TV. If not, I'd be happy to subscribe to a podcast.
