    Not sure how evicting the Twa from their ancestral forests to make a national park is “making conservation work for the community”.

    Hmm leave it to the continent that had the world’s first civilization to teach us that what we live with everyday is anything but civilized

    I know the situation in Rwanda is not as rose-coloured as it’s being presented here, but it IS nice to get a positive story from central Africa for once…

    I thought about so many forms of mental illness: dominating, subjugating, manipulating… and then I said the WORST was ACCOMODATING!

    IT’s the most common and tragic form of mental illness.

    Playing along with those in power is the WORST!

    They all played along with you… So Isaac was just pretending to be whatever you wanted Sam.

    He PUT ON A SHOW for you. Don’t get angry at me or this guy who’s clearly not named Isaac, as that’s just a show.

    Not saying they sell animal parts for money, but HONESTLY how would you know from this.

    _some of them do… but it’s it’s getting better over time_

    BOOP! Ah so worried about getting cancelled? They have no other original content to cut. Literally , original Turner Broadcasting content is YOU.

    Granted AT&T is quite an ungainly amalgam of unfortunately optimistic projections, FLUSH with DEBT, but people want to see you. That Sam doesn’t realize how dumb the institution that signs her checks is…. Oh, she knows.

    Expect the show to end soon… and find Samantha Bee somewhere else!!!

    Nothing to do with the quality of your team’s products. This is an insane problem of AT&T madly leveraged… it’s a back-office issue.

    I really liked/appreciated your show. Watched every episode, but my eyes are not enough to keep the show running. Sorry I don’t have enough eyes–if only I was a Russian Oligarch, you’d be secure at AT&T.

    I like Sam but sometimes it’s ok to not make specific jokes about American culture to a guy who might not understand what she’s talking about. Cringey
