I personally thought the first episode was really funny. All jokes were on sensitive topics but still hilarious, which shows some really brilliant writing. Jim as a host is doing just fine, laid back as usual, he's not forcing something out of him he knows he can't deliver. like impressions. Jim doesn't do impressions. which is fine, Im sure they can manage without them, John Oliver does terrible impressions as well. anyway, great show, really hope that it will be successful.
As an avid fan of Daily Show and Last Week Tonight I have long been waiting for a another show in the same league but with a different flavor of comedy, and an alternative perspective.
Jim Jefferies delivers a witty but often deeply insightful look at news and world issues.

Jim Jeffries is so funny you can barely sit still. Its irreverent, topical, savage, and spares no one. Jeffries is far ranging, with interviews of a Queensland Australia Senator, and the Ambassador to Azerbeigan. Of course he turns his attention to Trump now and then, but it's not endlessly dwelling on Trump's foibles.
Along with the funny stuff, Jeffries presents lots of real statistics about important subjects (health care, climate change, racism).
It's the funnies show on at the moment, and each episode gets funnier and funnier. His latest episode, about people who go on phony trophy hunts, is not merely hilarious, it is thoughtful and well reasoned.

If you are a Trump supporter and believe big oil should be in charge of the environment, mexicans belong on the other side of a big wall and teachers need guns you probably wont appreciate this. He dumbs down the humour for the US market quite a bit but there is nuance that a higher class of fan will still appreciate. Due to the once a week slot structure you'll see a few jokes that the other late night stars made first but he often has a fresh take on them which is pretty difficult in such a convoluted market. Jim is doing a very decent job as he tries to find his feet as an established late night host. You can tell when he hasn't been putting the effort in, but towards the end of the season one he was on his game more often than not. With the season 2 extension we should see some more money thrown his way, hopefully he invests in a stronger writing team and graphic department which should add up to way more laughs. Good on ya Jimbo. Looking forward to season 2!
Jim Jefferies is one the funniest natural comedians currently out there and one of the few who tackles big issues in his own unique style. Though the first episode was still a little rough around the edges it was still funnier than anything fake Jimmy Fallon or Seth Meyers has ever done. Give Jim time- this show could be a hit.

- TriviaJim got in hot water after making a joke, telling Kim Jong Un to bomb Reno. Jim's intentions was to plug a stand-up show he'll be doing there and to make a joke in the process since Kim Jong Un was threatening to nuke the United States. The Mayor of Reno (Hillary Schieve) took offense to this and made an official document entitled "Anti-Jim Jefferies" on Saturday, September 9, 2017. It was presented by the Mayor at Jim's stand-up show in Reno.
