Standout Aspects

Writing

Jokes so sharp they genuinely terrified the network.

Production

How they convinced real celebrities to say absurd things.

Best for:Friends: Watching with someone who still quotes Brass Eye.·Rewatch: Pausing constantly to Google who sued them.
Heads up:Triggers: Deliberately offensive satire of sensitive topics; the point but still jarring.
