At this point, it’s safe to say Last Week Tonight with John Oliver stole the show last year. Every week the former Daily Show correspondent and interim host offered viewers something new to laugh at, chew on, or both. Hopefully not at the same time, because that’s choking.
HBO just released the first promotional ad for the second season on YouTube, along with the tagline, “More of basically the same.” The video includes gags between Oliver and the offscreen narrator, who constantly suggests new additions to the show while the host refuses each and every one of them. I understand not wanting the “single dad struggling to raise an adorable child” scenario, but who could say no to a crime-solving pony?
