If there is a thread, please merge. I didn’t see one.  
I was happy to be back from a vacation\* to check out the first ep.

I thought it was good. I like the ‘keep it 100’ bit. I thought it was interesting. I think the panel style is a good notnew-new-in-the-timeslot idea.

I hadn’t liked Wilmore’s timing in a lot of the ‘Senior Black Correspondent’ bits, but he was looser and funnier in this.
