Full Frontal with Samantha Bee

Those feeling bereft after Jon Stewart left The Daily Show and Stephen Colbert toned it down for The Late Show may find some solace in this (sadly only) weekly show from Samantha Bee.

Her filmed pieces are still the strongest (she was always my favourite Daily Show correspondent) but she turns in a fiery performance as host of the show too. She rivals Jon Stewart in ferocity against political stupidity, but she's less nuanced and jokey than Stewart was. As the title of her show suggests, she's full-on angry and there's venom in her jibes. This may turns some viewers off, but I applaud her bravery.

The show this reminded me of most was "Totally Biased with W. Kamau Bell". I hope it sticks around for longer, it's a real breath of fresh air and great to see a woman in amongst the dude-dominated TV schedules.

Every joke told in the same fashion, no originality or variety. Takes the feminism thing(which I support) to such a ridiculous level it's just straight man-hating. Can't believe people watch this show.

I'm not Republican, I'm not Democrat. I could care less about your political views but this show is so one sided. Why would they give her a platform when she's not even funny, clever, or engaging. Even in the promos she's telling what's supposed to be a funny joke and there are people laughing their heads off in the audience and I'm sitting on the couch wondering what I just missed. To top it all off, this is "critically acclaimed"and has won awards. Smh. I do not understand that for the life of me.

This show is nothing more than trump bashery and stale unfunny comedy. You can only hear someone bash someone so much to the point of insanity. Only reason this is at a 2 is because she has some (but very few) fairly decent opinions and maybe ONE joke lands...every other episode. Can't believe critics gave this show a full 100% on rotten tomatoes.

The show was never funny but it keeps getting worse and worse. Can't even tolerate seeing the previews of it anymore.
