Nathan for You is an amazing show.
The very idea of helping small entrepreneurs through unexpected decisions already harbors a rich ground for banter, but the entrepreneurs themselves who were selected by the editorial board of the program also deserve recognition for the lion’s share of the success of this program.
Most likely, the state employed a staff of qualified psychologists who were able to select the most unusual comrades.
The ideas themselves are also cool, they please with their surprise, many reveal the stupidity of many laws by which modern society lives. For example, the idea of selling smoke detectors as musical instruments shows not only the stupidity and limitations of many duties and restrictions, but also shows how public opinion is worthless, and how simply an imaginary sense of transparency on the Internet allows for the most brazen falsifications.
In general, here, as in Borat, humor on social topics is presented in a very close connection with many social problems. The Uber episode generally showcased the life stages of most trade union movements.
A separate episode about the study of heroism is powerful. And the fact that many characters managed to collect a few years after their first appearances and see how their lives went further is worth a lot and still throws food for thought.
Installation here with a skew for documentary shows, but deliberately curved, pauses left, delays in changing the plan first create a great comic effect, and secondly destroy the power of most situations, systems, specialists and authorities, showing that the king is often naked.
The show ends with an atypical philosophical episode about the fact that most gestalts must be closed to move on.
I didn’t expect this kind of humorous project.
