Season 2 Review: It plays on all five senses, asking the people watching to disengage in ten-minute chunks. It’s a regularly soothing experience and a valuable reminder. Read full review

Season 2 Review: Employing warm cinematography, gentle narration, and its lightly absurd portrayal of everyday life, Joe Pera Talks with You digs at a larger existential truth about our own preoccupations and how they bring us comfort when we might need it most. Read full review

Such a special show, a love letter to domesticity and the everyday while legitimately asking big questions and making me laugh a lot

This is thematically groundbreaking — the dawn of New Sincerity on TV that encourages kindness in an era of nihilism, political divide alienation. This is the next step after Mr. Rogers, and unlike Mr. Rogers, it is not pitched at an age group. Family-friendly yet complex and mature, rarely sad but always uplifting, informative yet light-hearted, respectful of your time, with an incredible score that works with the episodes, makes you feel like being a better person. Some won't know whether to laugh, or how to appreciate this show, but all will feel entertained for reasons they cannot explain. It is because something this wholesome is rare.… Expand

Glad he created this TV show. It's rare to have a place to just sit and think, and it's always a pleasure to do it with Joe. A truly stunning show that just gives a sort of simple wisdom you'd never think of until you watch. Joe is going to revolutionize the idea of television.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Usually don't post reviews but just want to support Joe Pera. His helping to sleep videos I find very comforting and I listen sometimes when I'm not even sleeping. Very profound and I like his series.… Expand

Gentle, funny, relaxing, funny -- a perfect antidote to the pervasive shrillness and tension on the Internet. Joe Pera is medicine.
