I don't think this show is for you. It's one of the funniest things i've seen on TV in a long time. You are probably not intelligent enough to understand the humor. Go back to Two and a Half Men you idiot.

It's one of the funniest things i've seen on TV in a long time.
I love it, too. Having watched some of the original documentaries makes it even funnier. The humor is incredibly thoughtful and clever in the context of the originals. -

I too have watched the original documentaries that they basing theirs on, and the writing is sub-par, obvious and trite. The only thing I would give them credit for, is their technical skill and ability to mimic style. But, that doesn't matter if you can't make the material engaging. Seth Meyers is clearly the troublemaker on this show. He's a terrible writer. When Tina Fey left SNL, and Seth Meyers took over, the quality went down the toilet. His skits never went anywhere, not did that have punchlines. Seth Meyers is a lucky SOB and is somehow fooling people into thinking he is talented.

I agree with both of you, but with different episodes. The first episode and the latest were misfires in my opinion, but the others have been very well done. The last episode of the season appears to be another good one, but I will just have to wait and see.

We all know that someone asociated with the show moniters these sites and posts. You gave your opinion. You don't like it. There are shows and people I don't like. I give my opinion and move on. The back and forth and back and forth is unnecessary! Move on!

Nah. This first season was uneven, but its a new idea and both main actors showed their pull. I see the problem more that it is a bit high-concept and some of the stories are just undeliverable, despite how good they do it. I liked the first one, also "Dronez", Kunuk and the one with the band. But the one with the iceland festival, I felt it does not matter how many in-jokes they do, it could have worked.
Another minor criticism: I don't see why it needs Helen Mirren to do the introduction. She is a great actress, but she got no jokes at all and for this show I think they should have chosen a renowned male old actor. Like when Peter Ustinov or Maximilian Schell did introductions to documentaries, they naturally wanted to ham it up no matter the cause and thaht they were not really needed as actors. William Shatner maybe would have been great, he did a narration to a "Twilight Zone"-copy in the 1990ies which would have fit perfectly for here.
