How the hell does it get imdb rating of 8.4?

I checked out the reviews when I saw this referred to as "woke comedy", most are negative. Here's the BBC promoting this shit. Go Woke, go Mental!

Australia's 'new wave' of stereotype-shunning comedy

"We're in a really interesting cultural moment where there's discontent for comedy that punches down [to the powerless] instead of up [to the powerful]," says Dr Stayci Taylor, a screenwriting expert at RMIT university.

The new guard's most prominent member is Hannah Gadsby. Her stand-up show, Nanette, won international acclaim for pivoting away from self-deprecation and into serious testimony halfway through.

Early successful incarnations in Australia's modern comedy history include Barry Humphries' character Dame Edna Everage, which gained fame in the 1960s, and the film Crocodile Dundee (1986). Both played off what many regard as now-dated Australian female and male stereotypes.

More recently, comedians such as Gadsby, Minchin, Adam Hills, Zoe Coombs Marr and Josh Thomas have directly tackled topics such as misogyny, homophobia and disability discrimination.
