I watch South Park on CC often at night, as soon as his show comes on I change the channel. I've seen enough of his commercials to know I'm not missing anything.

If this is simply a reference to him being a flaming liberal that makes fun of trump and also is black, yes that part is obvious, but I mean couldn't the network find any other minority to toe the party line that's at least KINDA funny?

Amy Schumer is about the only other "comedian" I find less funny

Nobody.
Its the one issue that unites the political spectrum into one unified voice.

It's actually impressive how UNfunny he is. That takes commitment and years of honing one's craft.

At least John Oliver's show is somewhat informative.

well if you gauge by ratings his are down significantly from the daily shows peak by a significant amount (84%). So that would suggest most dont think he is funny or dont like the direction he has taken the show.
I am one of those. Watched it when Stewart was at the helm. Only occasionally check it now. When i do usually the first 10 minutes and skip any guests he is interviewing as its always going to be some woke agenda. I don't think hes awful, but not particularly creative. Uses a lot of the same tired formula.
i did see one of his standups. mediocre at best. ive seen much worse from other comedians on both sides of the political fence.

He's easily the least funny "comedian"/funny guy out there right now.
Not a single person I know, right or left, thinks he's worth the shite paper they wipe their arse with.

I used to watch his show frequently, and I don't know if this is why I don't now or I'm busy, but he did an episode on something I'm very familiar with and it was so off base I'd be an idiot to think anything subsequent to that really represents the issue.
Though since he does tackle obscure issues at times that in itself has some value, since the viewer becomes aware and hopefully checks it out in more detail.

in what way? id be surprised to hear the facts given there were false, but not so surprised that facts supporting any counterpoints were omitted.

It is this way with most things he covers.

No. The dude isn't funny at all.
And that has nothing to do with his politics. I have wondered since he came on scene how he has a career in entertainment.

Sure, it has everything to do with his politics and you know it.

As far as the daily show style of news goes there is nobody even close to John.
His most recent clip on Qatar and Fifa is excellent as always.

He’s African but not American. He’s from the Republic of South Africa and we should revoke his visa for being unfunny.

I've never seen the show but I've seen about 50 commercials that one would think they would use the funniest bits on to tout the show, and I've never come close to laughing even once. Not the least bit funny.

Umm, no. It doesn't. I've watch some of his standup that had nothing to do with politics.
His material is flat and predictable and his delivery is bland.
You want to keep arguing with me?
