The HBO show with John Oliver, however, is decidedly weak. Dude is just not funny - I don't get the appeal. :snoop:

I only catch his clips on youtube but I thought the one on mental health was spot on. He's not outrightly funny like a lot of American hosts are, I think the Brits tend to have more subtle/satire type of humor (see UK Office), and it seems like he tends to rely on comparisons as his punch, but their is some material there if you sift through it.
