I love how mad this show makes some people

I don't know if it will stay on the air, but the tears and butthurt whining from the fragile egos of misogynists and pseudo-conservatives warms my huge bleeding heart. :) Boo hoo, she talks about abortion. Boo hoo, she talks about rape. Boo hoo, she talks about a topic that doesn't revolve around the male experience and that's misandry! (People have actually said this.) Boo hoo, she has Peaches as her opening song. There is no shortage of things people will find to hate about this show, and when you piss off those people, you're doing something right. People who hate this show (not dislike, but actively hate it so much they have to take the time to post everywhere about it) are the types of people who need to be coddled, and cannot handle being provoked because they're so firmly ensconced in their comfortable bubble of advantages; where everyone looks and thinks just like them, and there's always an echo chamber of constant validation of each other's narrow-minded perspectives.

Samantha Bee is a national treasure, and I apologize to Trevor Noah fans, but those of us who loved the Daily Show know we got screwed out of Jon Stewart's rightful heir; it OBVIOUSLY should have been Ms. Bee. If her show doesn't last, at least it will open doors for more women to make similar shows. Hopefully one day most shows will be made by women, except for the sporadic show hosted by some dudebro. Hopefully some day, the only place you'll be able to find men yapping on TV is by tuning in to Fox News.

Until then, keep crying, haters.

That's what I don't get. You don't like the show, change the channel.

What's missing in movies is same as in society: a good sense of work ethic and living up to ideals.

It will stay on the air. The ratings have been very good. But lmao at your sentence about only wanting men on Foxnews. Probably don't want to whine about sexism when you show sexism as well.

How about men and women both have shows as long as they are successful? If they are not successful, they get replaced.

How very fascinating(not really though) that you love and enjoy how this show pisses off all the male sexists to no end, and THEN go on to say that you hope to one day in the future to see only, or mainly, women dominating TV programming and for men to just merely be cartered off to Fox News and not really be seen anywhere else on TV. Well score one for the whole notion and concept of gender equality I say!

So very proud to see how you all continue to practice what you preach to others!

Haven't seen her show but the clips I have seen on politics make her look like a democratic idiot

Btw you sound like a complete idiot lol. Ladies will never run the world, you can't even fight wars, be cops, etc without standards being lowered

Ladies will never run the world, you can't even fight wars, be cops, etc without standards being lowered

Wrong. While the *average* male is bigger, faster, stronger, and has more endurance than the *average* female, there is a small percentage of women who can fight wars or be cops while meeting the current standards because they are physically superior to the average male.

Standards should NEVER be lowered for any reason, whether they be physical or intellectual. Those of any gender who can meet the standards should be given the opportunity if they want it.

As for Samantha Bee, the show just sucks because it's clearly one sided. Satire is funny when it's even-handed. Samantha comes across as an evil hater with an agenda and there's nothing funny about that. She rails against misogynists but she's clearly misandrist (which is OK in today's world).

mider2009 no disrespect but why are you here? You watch a clip of the show, hated it went to IMDB wrote gave a the lowest rating and now on the forums writing that it sucks? Why did it have such a huge reaction.

[–] mider2009 8 years ago

Why do you care why I'm here?

I am not a fan of her nor John stewert, Trevor Noah, or any of those ilk

They back a criminal who is not in jail because of her connections yet try to vilify someone over some hurtful words.

I also dislike how they throw the word sexist and racist around, I'm a fourth generation descendent of immigrants and I'm also Hispanic yet I agree with trump in many points. I'm sickened to see people sweeping clintons crimes both past and present under the rug yet getting hung up over nonsense trump does.

From what I know trump hasn't caused any deaths like Hillary did in Benghazi, he hasn't destroyed evidence, he hasn't raped anyone like Bill as trumps accusers are being shown as fake.

mider:

Clinton was found not to have caused any wrongdoing in Benghazi, and she was cleared completely. She's not a criminal,so get over it. I mean, she was investigated over Bengazi for at least 3 or 4 damn years straight through, and not found guilty of anything---what the hell more do you need? And,yes, trumpf did order a raid in Yemen which went wrong and caused the death of an American officer and several other people---funny how the media barely covered that:

http://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2017/2/28/14766918/trump-blame-military-yemen-seal-botched-raid-pentagon-fox

Exactly what do you agree on don the con with? He's a loudmouth, ignorant, racist, sexist, POS who has virtually NO qualifications to be in the WH whatsoever. Exactly what the hell do you think he can do when he has virtually no political background or record to show that he can get anything done? He's never run anything outside of his real estate empire which was basically handled to him by his daddy.

His problem is, he thinks he can run the country like he runs his businesses (which is scary when you remember that he's been bankrupt at least 4 or 5 times) and is finding out the hard way that isn't even how it works. Even a ten-year-old can tell that he's way in over his head, and dosen't know what the fck he's doing, yet he refuses to admit it--which is another thing I don't like about him--he rarely admits to making any mistakes, which is what most normal grown adults usually do. He clearly wasn't ready to be president in the first place, because he dosen't even seem to know,understand, or have grasped the basics of what being the president actually entails, he makes these stupid accusations and says things with virtually no evidence to back them up---like when he made that stupid accusation about Obama supposedly wiretapping him---which turned out not to be true,btw.

He only got elected because he played on people's fears,frustrations, and prejudices to get in the WH. Now you got racists everywhere thinking they can go out and harm anybody they hate who isn't white and male and get away with it. Fck them--that ain't gonna happen. Oh, check this out---an old white dude who helped shove around and assault a young black woman at a trump rally last year claims that since trumpf encouraged him and the whole audience to beat up on protestors, that he's not responsible for his actions----yeah, right. You can see it in the video that's she clearly being shoved around. She's filed a lawsuit against him and the men that threatened her---he's one of the defendants. Apparently this idiot thinks trumpf is going to pay his legal fees---that's never gonna happen:

http://www.diversityinc.com/news/trump-supporter-assault-rally/

Basically, I don't know why you believe that fool or anything that comes out of his lying mouth. He got barely a single vote is his own home state, which tells you something right there.

Oh, shut up. Women have already been the head of countries all over the planet, and we also reproduce the human race, you idiot. Without us, the human race wouldn't go on. So don't give me any of that stupid sexist bull*** about how women are worthless. Standards being lowered? Uh, EXCUSE the hell out of me? We have an old,rich spoiled,ignorant,arrogant, racist, clueless-as-fck idiot in the WH who couldn't find his a** with both hands if he actually tried, with virtually NO qualifications or experience to even be there in the first place, and is only there because white people wanted a white man back in the White House, apparently no matter how stupid,unqualified and ignorant he was---if that isn't a major lowering of standards for our country, I don't know what the fck is. Also, provide some examples of how letting women into previously male-dominated profession supposedly "lowers" the standards for anything. Do the damn research, and stop spewing your sexist ignorance all over here.

Well humor is a device, even the haters are having a reaction, its on TBS so it will stay on, but I'm so surprised that people who find this show unfunny, or too liberal bother to come here and write bad reviews and post unflattering comments. Networks will find that a big plus, and her team seems very active on twitter and has many positive write up on esquire.

Did Trump tweet about this show? Why is so many people who find this show unfunny here?

[–] BiffGG 8 years ago

It is amazing the number of pro Bee people here who see enemies everywhere outside of their circle. Why can't people come on here to criticize the show? People do it with Limbaugh and Hannitty and quite a few times it is justified depending on the content. A conservative does not equal a Limbaugh listener and a liberal should not equal a Bee follower. Honestly, as a conservative I have relatively little in common with Limbaugh as he is for the country club set of the Republican Party while I am just an ordinary person in Middle America who does pay taxes and think that Washington DC is out of control.

The show is about as factually accurate as Fox News.

Your post is obviously trolling though so whatever. Hard to take seriously with last few sentences and just go for the attack instead of actually digesting the problems people have with it and attempting to refute those problems.

Golden Gate Shower has been proven as false. She literally claimed it to be true.

This show is fake news.
