Title: Nathan For You
Post by: Heismanberg on October 30, 2015, 12:09:28 AM
A few of us have discussed Nathan For You in the TV Shows thread, but it really needs its own thread.

Everyone needs to watch this Comedy Central series.  It is some of the funniest television I've ever seen.

Show is great.

Speaking of good comedy central shows, where the freak did "Review" go?

I'm halfway through season 1. Definitely like it, kind of heavy handed on the uncomfortable/cringe humor. The first or second episode with H Jon Benjamin coaching him through the interview had me in tears

Agreed. Always Sunny and Workaholics are my favorites, but this is funnier right now.

how do the seasons compare? It's hard to binge watch this show.  I like it so far but in doses. I think i've watched 5-6 episodes from season 1.

Does the show get better or different at all?
Title: Re: Nathan For You
Post by: Badger on December 30, 2015, 05:10:05 PM
I think it's consistent.

I stopped halfway in season 2. I liked it but the awkward/cringe humor genre is not my cup of tea. Overall I think it is very funny but it makes you feel uncomfortable as you watch

It's why some of the Gervais/Merchant stuff can be great but also be too much. IMHO those guys do a better job of balancing it out most of the time to where it's not overwhelming and constant.

Sometimes with this show it doesn't stop.

The cringe factor on Hello Ladies was off the charts and far beyond NFY.

Hello Ladies is extreme, which is why i said most of the time.  That show actually got better as they made Merchant's character more redeemable towards the end.

The Office and Extras were pretty good about inserting it in the right spots.
The one with Willow was absurdly heavy on cringe, but that was mostly Willow himself. I'm too baked to remember his name or care to look it up

The episode with Liam Neeson is the best.

"Ahh you noticed that huh, yeah I'm always making lists. It's probably why Stephen Spielberg cast me as Oscar Schindler "

"I slept with an African prostitute who is from a country where famine and war have left her with no recourse other than to sell herself "

Paraphrasing but that scene never gets old

That show was amazing.

His accountant was the best. "You're probably worth more dead, than alive." He goes through various suicide methods and then looks at him and says, "well, you can probably just climb in the oven or something."

freaking brilliant, underrated show.
