Synopsis: Always capable of seeing the lighter side of the apocalypse, British comedian John Oliver uses this stand-up special to explore such frothy topics as the Iraq War, global imperialism, and slavery.... Always capable of seeing the lighter side of the apocalypse, British comedian John Oliver uses this stand-up special to explore such frothy topics as the Iraq War, global imperialism, and slavery. Best known for his stints as a correspondent on THE DAILY SHOW, Oliver's deadpan delivery and modest proposals offer a refreshing antidote to the disingenuous banter of political pundits. Originally aired on Comedy Central, this program was filmed live at New York City's Symphony Space Theatre. [More]
