    • Trivia
      After hosting The Daily Show (1996) for eight weeks, John Oliver's reviews were so overwhelmingly positive that he was offered a job by HBO to do a weekly talk show, which they were not planning to do until they saw Oliver host.
    • Quotes

      [repeated line]

      John Oliver - Host: The point is.

    • Alternate versions
      It is illegal in Great Britain to use video footage of Parliament for comedic purposes. Initially when episodes featuring such footage aired there the screen cut to black without explanation. For later episodes producers would substitute bizarre footage including for example comedian Gilbert Gottfried reading three-star Yelp reviews for restaurants in Boise, Idaho.

    He is the spoonful of sugar
    I, unfortunately, pay attention to the news and constantly have to pause and breath and calm down. This show makes it easier to hear the news of the week and be pissed but also not let it completely break my spirit.
