This Season (as well as every Season) is absolutely a must-see in political science education. Not only does Oliver break down some important processes worth examining, but his research obsessive team goes above and beyond to find and expose corruption among many members of government.

November 15th’s finale delivers a few more cathartic treats including permission for momentary celebration, the most yellow creation that ever walked the early (John Oliver Debunks Bogus Election Fraud Claims When He’d Rather Be Talking About Weird-Looking Turtles), pyrotechnics as patriotism (John Oliver Literally Blows Up 2020 in Final Show of the Year: “Get F–ked”), and an annual finale face off with Adam Driver (The A-list cameo was a highlight of the “Last Week Tonight” season finale).
