Per Mark Evanier, the first episode is on the YouTubes - via HBO? http://www.newsfromme.com/2014/04/28/free-launch/ I don't subscribe to any of the pay channels, and while it sounds like a decent enough program, I'm not likely to tie the cord.

I saw a headline from Variety somewhere that it played like the 5th episode of TDS for the week, which was pretty close. He does not need Zaltzman (though I like him, and their dynamic) but I think he does benefit from the conversational dynamic. But I will definitly record, and watch, it every week.

I laughed a lot, but much of what the show is can be seen/heard elsewhere, so John Oliver is the only real selling point. Frankly, I'd have preferred if Oliver periodically cut away to Andy Zaltzman (as he did in his stand up special), but I guess that's too much to ask for. Besides, as a kinky-haired redhead myself, I know Andy isn't exactly TV-friendly. > > >-- >Kevin M. (RPCV) -- > -- -- TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People!
