    Netflix just put on the WORST FYC event for this show. Once again, rude Netflix employees running their FYC events treated Academy voters terribly and put on another cheap , miserable, uncomfortable event. They don't get it that these are the people who will nominate and vote for their shows. Netflix wonders why they all their shows don't get nominations and votes. This is why.

Yes, most of Netflix shows are bad but some deserve noms. The talent in those shows deserve better FYC events. Get rid of your ignorant employees, Netflix!… Expand

    Yet another actor to throw a hat into the already overcrowded political talk show arena. No depth to the show or any ounce of political insight gleamed here. Just awful and not funny to anyone other than his family or friends.

    In the second episode, he refers to his show jokingly as “a woke TED Talk” and that gets it pretty right, except this woke TED Talk is not only informative and incisive, but funny.

    Patriot Act, an appealing comedy-talk show hybrid from longtime collaborators Hasan Minhaj and Prashanth Venkataramanujam, isn’t going to singlehandedly swing things Netflix’s way, but it is the streamer’s best offering yet in the genre. ... The result is an engrossing mix of deep dives, personal asides, and current events, all delivered with Minhaj’s winning aplomb.

    The result is bracing, funny, informative, and occasionally, like Last Week Tonight, a little dry. But it’s homework that you wanna do, even if you never forget that it’s ultimately an assignment. I don’t consider that description a knock on the show.
