I know it's one of the two shows that makes Hulu worth it to me and I don't watch must beyond season 8 or 9 and even those aren't entirely enjoyable to me. Still one of the greats tv-wise!

He was able to say things he wouldn't normally feel like saying to guests because it was a satire and he was playing a character. That skill doesn't always translate to genuine interviews and he comes off kinda boring because of it.
