Started watching this last week because of all the hype here. Season 1 and season 2, great! Season 3, fell of a cliff. Utter garbage. Rarely smiled, let alone laughed.
>>
All three seasons are just as great.
>>
Liar.

This is the most underrated show on TV

Dude how did you not laugh at the fat guy with the ballons on the horse

Also

>Yeah man I have threeways with my brother all the time
>I don't know we just like doing it
>>
Come on. The fat guy riding on horseback with weather balloons reducing his weight, and the antique store sumo-suit thing were some of the best bits he's ever done
>>
This show gains appeal by making people assume the people involved aren't in on the joke. Sure there are a couple of genuine reactions here and there, but once you realize it's pretty much as scripted as reality TV then you get over it.

Nathans awkwardness is worth a laugh here and there, but overall the show is completely overrated.
>>
>>63424858
same for me but I guess the concept just becomes boring quickly
>>
>>63424962
Trying to defraud Best Buy was great too.
>>
>>63424973
I'm inclined to disagree, but the last episode was a little too far.
"Hey, let's go get a blood test?" "A blood test?" "Yeah" "Yeah, alright let's get a blood test." C'mon now...
>>
>>63424962
Okay, there were some cool parts. Sex box, The Movement, and Electronics Store were good. But there was a lot of shit too, like the Nail Salon, or the Travel Agent. The Antique Shop wasn't funny, it's just that the brother made it funny with the part about fucking girls together.
>>
>>63425018
the point of the show is how far people will go because they are in front of a camera. they dont want to look bad, or they want to be famous (the bachelor episode) so they will do literally anything nathan asks of them because they are on tv. the moving fitness one is another great example of this. its why nathan loves the PI guy so much. hes just a prick and does everything nathan doesnt want him to do. thats why when he caught him talking about his porn background he had a field day with it. i really wished he tried to convince him to be in the porno where the kid was in the room though.
>>
>>63425342
That's a bingo, anon.

I feel like this thread has given me a true breakthrough because this is truly /reddit/ the show because everyone on that website is obsessed with this show.

but also, it is a great show, and contains an equal amount of liberal/conservative values that can appeal to anyone on 4chan, especially because of its irreverent humor and (sometimes) great writing

reddit is a terrible website, but in a sense so is 4chan because we created those Scientology faggots that made 4chan look like a bunch of Guy Fawkes wearing autists four or five years ago.

/tv/ is my favorite board on 4chan, but it has an unfortunate overlap with reddit. I'm just (very) drunk and am realizing that this great board has more of a relation to reddit than any of us would like to admit, what's important is that we continue to remain extremely hostile to each other to keep our faggot asses in check
>>
>>63424973
What about the sport store guy that didn't care about what Nathan was doing? How do you explain that?
>>
>>63424973
What bothers me the most is how Nathan wastes everyone's time.
>>
Does anyone have that gif/webm of the plate breaking and it changing between shots?

Neat, thanks.

np ;)

>>63427832
but he doesn't have to

every one of his ideas is shit, and they could nip them in the bud immediately....but they don't

it's an exploration of why people would allow their time to be wasted like this
>>
I'm laughing at the people who actually think this shit is staged
>>
Someone post the Nathan for you 4chan pasta

I've got you, f͏͏a͏͏m.
>>
>>63429723
but it is staged
>>
>>63430022
isn't everything staged?
>>
I thought the age progression guy was pretty fucking funny.
>>
>>63429723
This bit >>63428549 was clearly redone, which means that the show is at least semi-staged.
>>
>>63424858
Season 3 is the best so far.
The latest episode was the hardest I've ever laughed.
Just the way Brendan cared for a moment that someone stole his urine and then totally didn't care because he wanted a friend fucking wrecked me.
>>
>A-am I contrarian yet!!?
>>
>>63430022
its not though, are you fucking retarded? He just happens to get over a dozen different legitimate news stations across the regions to get in on the joke, during the moving bit? Come on dude
>>
>>63428549

How is this proof that it's staged? I dont get it
>>
>>63431808

Oh nvm I see the plate changes
>>
>>63424858
season 3 is the best, don't be a pleb.


Anyone think this will get renewed?
>>
Finally got around to season 3. It is brilliant.

The I love you scene made me feel real hard. I dont know what feeling it was, but it was hard to watch
>>
>>63431808
>>63431838
Which doesn't prove that it's fake and you're a dipshit if you think it does. I've thought the show was probably largely staged since I first started watching, but all two different plates proves is that they edited the scene to be shorter.
>>
>>63428549
well, fuck.
>>
This is the best season, pleb.
>>
>>63431880
oh, that's a good point actually. He could have smashed more than one plate.
>>
>>63430325
It doesn't have to be "redone", all he has to do is pick up two different plates.
>>
Season 3 is more art than comedy
>>
The fact that Dumb Starbucks was real and reported on by every major news corporation lends Nathan enough credibility to keep me watching for multiple lifespans
>>
>>63432811
>>63432811
This and the movement lend enough credence to the show
>>
>>63424858
It is annoying that every episode needs to have him hitting on a girl, used to just be once in a while, now it seems forced.
>>
>>63426936

>this autism
>>
>>63425342
This. The camera crew is the only reason this dude hasn't gotten his ass kicked yet.
>>
>>63433088
I kind of agree. Missed opportunity to hit on that asian stunt driver from last episode though.
>>
>>63432811
Don't forget about the "pig rescues baby goat" video.
>>
>>63424858

I totally agree. Shit got old real fast.
>>
>>63424894
>Childhood friends with steve jobs
>>
>>63433508
>jungle child eaten by baboons
>>
I think S3 is the best so far. S3 had 2.5 bad episodes, S2 had 4.
>>
>>63425276
>Sex Box
terrible bit
>Nail Salon
amazing bit if only because of the interview with the driver
>the antique shop bit was only funny because of that funny part in the antique shop bit
ok
>>
>>63426936
I think 4chan is where people like to reflect and bask in nerdrage then add to it at the same time. When I see more rational posts I can't help but feel that there's another anon who just comes here to write posts that point out the obvious, logical case instead of the impassioned emotional one. I always feel that the emotional one wins in the end though.
