Sadly Over-hyped
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
View MoreIt is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.
View MoreThe movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
View MoreJust brilliant, each and every episode is hilarious
View MoreI don't know how many TV-series I've watched and how many of them are counted as "Comedy" series, but this has been one of the few that once made me laugh at least a couple of times in all of the episodes and the ONLY ONE that made me cry laughing in one of the episodes, for real! Knowing my admiration to Borat and how it combined acting with the people on the street and how tolerant they get in front of a movie crew, a close friend of mine suggested Nathan For You to me and I was not more thankful for another movie/TV-series suggestion. Great scripts each episode and even better acting. I don't believe Nathan For You could be perceived as being harsh as Borat but still I guess it is not a work that would make all viewers laugh out loud. But at least from the friends I've recommended it, I haven't gotten any bad responses and do claim that it is a must watch, being one of the funniest TV-series EVER.
View MoreI was going through a very tough time in my life where it felt like I had forgotten how to laugh or smile and like some kind of miracle, I stumbled upon a Nathan for You clip on Youtube. It was the poop frozen yogurt episode. When I watched the clip I knew I had to watch the entire episode and just binge on Nathan for You. It felt so foreign to laugh, yet amazing after not doing so for weeks. I remember crying after watching a few episodes, not because I was sad, but because this show had made me laugh and actually feel good after thinking I would never feel that way again as I was heavily considering suicide. There is so much silly absurdity in life that make for a good laugh and this show helped me see it. After watching this show, I remembered what funny was and it was a refreshing feeling. I totally identified with Nathan Fielder's character and love the way he isn't afraid to say things that would make others uncomfortable. He's a rebel. I remembered that there are people in this world that enjoy making others feel happy. There isn't one episode I didn't like, I absolutely love them all. This show really picked me up form the hole I was in, and after that I began to see the lighter side of life. This may sound nuts, crazy or unbelievable to you, but it really helped me and it was like something clicked in my brain. I really hope this show doesn't get cancelled and that Nathan may continue to bring us joy and laughter. If the show does unfortunately come to an end, I hope he continues to do what he loves and make people laugh. I could go on for at least another hour on how this show made me feel good and gave me hope in life, but I will cut it here.It's safe for me to say that Nathan Fielder saved my life. If I ever meet him, I will shake his hand and thank him for a job well done. I love you Nathan Fielder! 11/10 stars!
View MoreI have a very particular taste in TV and even more specific and increasingly picky taste in comedy, and this show just happens to hit on all the right notes that tickle my funny bone, the execution is perfect, Nathan is deliciously awkward in the best way possible, I'd love to have a beer with that guy, in or out of character. Beware though, the people that won't get this show or understand the humor will absolutely hate it with every fiber of their being. Textbook Love it or Hate it situation. But if you have a slightly childish sense of humor and the cynicism and disdain for humanity as an old geyser, this may be a perfect match for you. Hope you enjoy!
