Louis La Fonda is no Wolf Blitzer. He's the host of "Newsreaders," a newsmagazine show that goes in-depth on stories that no other news organizations think are stories -- probably because they're not. But that won't stop La Fonda from covering them. "Newsreaders" features appearances by guest stars, including actors Dave Foley, Dennis Haysbert and Mary Lynn Rajskub. The show was created by the executive producers of fellow Adult Swim entry "Childrens Hospital," on which "Newsreaders" began as a recurring segment.

With Newsreaders already starting as a funny and well-oiled show, it could developed into as respected a comedy show as its 11-minute Adult Swim brethren if it continues to build on the solid work that's been established in its initial episodes. Go to Full Review Brandon Nowalk AV Club 12/09/2020
With that Daily Show cred, Newsreaders naturally nails the form, fitting right in on Adult Swim's shadow network. The season will fine-tune or not, but Newsreaders has a hilarious start. Go to Full Review Joyce Slaton Common Sense Media 12/09/2020
3/5
The show is always funny enough to keep a smile on your face, and frequently laugh-out-loud amusing, though filthy enough that parents watching with teens may be occasionally discomfited/ Go to Full Review Read all reviews
