A British comededian in the style of Monte Python.
Chosen by several reddit communities to post only memes about him (that happened to be during a writers strike) to encourage coverage of reddit’s problems.
Famous for investigative journalism. Here is a copy from his Wikipedia page:
Oliver’s comedic commentary has been credited with helping influence US legislation, regulations, court rulings, and other aspects of US culture; this influence has been dubbed “The John Oliver effect”.[4][5] This came from the show’s fifth episode, which dealt with net neutrality, a subject that had previously been considered obscure and technical.[101] Oliver documented problems attributed to internet service providers and argued that the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) could resolve these concerns with upcoming changes to internet regulation. Oliver then encouraged viewers to submit public comments through the FCC’s website. The FCC’s website promptly crashed.[102]
I wouldn’t say he was in the style of Python at all, their humor was much more silly and surreal than John Oliver. Other than also being British, I see very few similarities.
I’m being pedantic, but mainly cause I’m not sure of how to properly address expats from other countries. John Oliver is American now. He got his citizenship and even voted which is more than I can say about some of my family/peers.
Is he still a British comedian when he’s an American comedian? Do I have to state it weird like American comedian with a British background? I normally wouldn’t care, but he seemed to care so I am mentioning that he is in fact American. Thanks.

That is about all I know about him
