I used to love this show but getting a bit fed up of Adam Hills' preaching and I think getting involved in politics to this degree is maybe not the best idea for the show. It was better at 45 mins too.
I do agree that it should be 45 minutes, however. |

I disagree. The show sets itself apart from everything else by discussing politics to the extent it does. There is a sore lack of satire on the box.

Political satire yes but one-sided preaching no. I think it's gone too far in the latter direction.

One sided? So they should present more arguments in favour of politicians being paedophiles?
If you aren't on benefits or receiving any tax credits, surely you ended up better off. |

The just over 1h show might be pushing it a bit also. |

3 people calling out all the BS in the world and saying how it is, not sure what not to like? Also very funny, it always has me laughing out loud every week.

Probably more the fact he made a big point about the budget resulting in 'most people being worse off'.
If you aren't on benefits or receiving any tax credits, surely you ended up better off. If that isn't most people, I don't know what is. Do you want censorship? Do you want the show to be a mouthpiece of the government? I think you are watching the wrong show if you don't want the truth ridiculed for your amusement. |

I thought they let Joanna Lumley off very lightly on the subject of the Garden Bridge. If they're going to invite a guest on, I know they have to be polite, but if that guest is involved in a questionable issue, they shouldn't just be allowed to make a little speech and then not be questioned further, especially on this kind of show that prides itself on taking on controversial subjects.

Did you watch the same show as me? She explained the costings in detail, including how it was basically costing the Govt nothing.

It's the worst episode they've ever put out in my opinion, and Amy Poehler is pointless.

Its been terrible. Amy is usually great on American talk shows, She's not impressed with these three.

Adam's Michael McIntyre impression was spot on

It was easy for him to impersonate a bad comedian.

Such an odd episode. Amy sometimes seemed to get it and other times not. Very weird.

And she sounded very plausible. But if a politician was on the programme and made any claims about the economy, this is the sort of programme that would question in a bit more detail. Any quick Google would find plenty of people who think the government, and tax payers will have to pay millions, but because JL is a 'national treasure', she wasn't asked for more detail and the BS button remained unused.
