The Problem with Jon Stewart - Comments & Tips
what happend to episode 5?
Jon Stewart got woke to stay relevant. Now he is defeating self-created strawmen with cringy jokes. Some segments are outright painful to watch, do not recommend.
This seems very inspired by Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj and Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, so if you like those shows you'll have a good time. The guest interviews are the biggest variable here, sometimes brilliant, sometimes underwhelming. Great for fans of Jon Stewart and blending investigative journalism with comedy!
Jon Stewart trying to be relevant again. Youtube commentary is better than this.
Will you feel just a little more depressed after watching this? Yeah, probably, but it's worth it. Jon looks at problems many of us take for granted at this point. Pretty level-headed exploration of the issues at play, with quality guests that really add to the discussions.
