I personally don't find the danger acts appealing. I always have to mute or look away from them. The sob stories are over the top. There is an occasional good act, but it's not worth sitting through a whole episode for. The straw that broke the camels back for me is the fact that they allow comedians from other countries come and do nothing more on stage than insult Americans. Now, I'm no stuck in the mud, I find many of the comedic acts mocking past presidents hilarious. But there are some other acts that are straight up bigotry and not even comedy anymore. If an American openly insulted a country's citizens in another country the same way they had some so on this stage, there would rightfully be backlash. So I don't appreciate double standard here. It's not comedy. It's bigotry. There's a difference between a joke, and xenophobic sentiments disguised as jokes. I have no problem with acts from other countries on the show, but the ones that come onstage openly insulting Americans do not deserve the screen time. I would not accept an American doing that on another country's show, and expect the same respect in return.
