Quote:
Nathan Fielder uses his business degree and life experiences to help real small businesses turn a profit. But because of his unorthodox approach, Nathan's genuine efforts to do good often draw real people into an experience far beyond what they signed up for.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2297757/

So I finally started watching this show on many peoples recommendations.... and hot damn if it isn't funny. Haven't really seen anything quite like this before.

Nathan is probably the most awkward, cringe-worthy person I've ever seen on TV. Every one of his episodes is hilarious, and if you are looking for a good laugh definitely give this one a shot.

Anyone else watching this currently? Second season just started a couple of weeks ago.

Very much so, definitely worth watching.

Here's a clip from one of the recent episodes, might not be available outside the US Sad You can get around restrictions pretty easily though.

Same here, not that funny to me.
It comes on comedy central here in the US. I watched a few episodes on S01 when it was new, but didn't like it Sad To me its like Comedy Centrals version of "Tim and Eric Awesome Show". Forced acting of awkwardness and lack of social grace in front of a camera for the sake of humor.

I really wanted to like it, but just cant Crying or Very sad

Well I guess it's not for everyone.

Due to the success of Nathan for you, the Private Investigator actually landed his own reality tv show called Cry Wolfe on Discovery lol wut

Pt.1


Pt.2

Nah, didnt really like it. It's too obvious that is mostly set-up from both him and the participant.

Ali G show did this ages ago and it was more funny + more beliavable, he's also far more entertaining to watch than this douchebag (and yes i understand that its supposed to be his thing).
