I've you've seen this awful show, what do you think about it?

It's basically c-list celebrities. 95% of which no one has ever heard of, talk about shitty Internet memes and joke about the latest vines and twitter posts from celebrities people actually care about.
I want to cringe whenever I watch it.

So it's pretty much like Tosh.o, but less entertaining.

Thoughts, NG?

Actually, I'm familiar with a lot of the people that have been on.

I dunno. I'd say "meh".

it's amazing that comedy central consistently delivers such high quality comedic content

this one is a sure-fire hit

it's destined to ascend the ranks of television comedy and emerge as the one show everyone in america watches so they can steal jokes from it at work

i haven't laughed this hard since two hours ago

I like it. I think it's the first show to successfully translate Internet humor to a television format (no, Tosh does not do this successfully). That's probably mostly because it stacks the deck by regularly employing the same people who make that humor on Twitter and so on, but I also think the structure and flow of the show itself is a factor. Everything is very loose and casual, everyone on the show always seems to be having a lot of fun, and Chris Hardwick makes for a surprisingly endearing host considering he has one of the most eminently punchable faces in show business.

It's not high art but it's always entertaining and there are worse ways to spend a half-hour.

It's mostly comedians, most of whom anyone who's into comedy will have heard of.
