Yes, I'm sure that's it. There's no way we could simply find him dull and unfunny. Nope, has to be racism!


Here's another vote for dull and unfunny.

I'd add pretentious and histrionic too.

Oh, sweetie. We've been waiting for you! You're probably the same person who thinks Hillary Clinton lost because of "sexism." Or that those of us who don't like Beyoncé are "racists." Newsflash: we can have our preferences without it being linked to sexism or racism, as you so desperately want it to be.

Trevor Noah is a cute young man who is probably a charming individual. But he's not funny.


Precisely.

I think he’s really hot and funny. Don’t care for the show.

It should’ve been Jessica Williams.

I wish the timing had been better. I can understand why she didn’t go for it. The DS format would have pigeonholed her at a time when she wanted to grow and explore. But the more I see of her work, the more I think what a missed opportunity it was. She is amazing.


I agree. She’s great.

I like him, I find him funny. He’s different from Jon Stewart, but that’s ok.

Do you really consider South Africa to be the third world?

Eh, Stewart, Colbert, and Trevor Noah are all smug really. Colbert was funny on the Colbert Show, but now that he's #Resistance, he's hard to watch.


So you literally never got his show eh

I'm getting used to him comedically. But, frankly, I watch the show just to gaze longingly at him.
