I Love This Show!


I have only recently discovered "Brand X" for myself, and have fallen in love with the show. In particular, the episodes from Season 1 are entertaining AND eye-opening.

We need someone on mainstream television who's willing to engage in open discourse on subjects that aren't always comfortable to tackle. I sincerely hope that Russell brings back that "Unacceptable Opinion" segment; that segment engendered some truly compelling exchanges (e.g., Pamela Geller and the young man with the "Pamela's Racism Kills" sign; Russell attempting to have a rational conversation with the Westboro Church zealots; etcetera).

If only Russell's detractors could take a moment to look past his seemingly-manic comic delivery and really LISTEN to what he's saying re: the necessity for our spiritual development as a collective, and the need to choose love over hate, there might not be so much vitriol being directed toward him on these boards. Like all great comedy, his is based on fundamental truths.
