It's exactly an adult swim show actually. Adult swim is constantly about surprising people and catching them off guard. So making a show like Mr. Rodgers with no hint of irony after 20 years of R rated stuff is the most unexpected move possible. Love Joe btw!

It is both the least Adult Swim show and also the most Adult Swim show

discovered this gem late at night a few months back while clobbering around streaming services for something to watch, watched nothing else until i finished it. and i want more

I started watching Joe while I was in chemotherapy. My mom saw how much the show meant to me and wrote Joe an email, a while later I got a really nice, thoughtful letter from Joe. It really meant a lot.

I like how Joe Pera balances the humor with the serious subject matter. It feels very natural and never forgets that it's a comedy. A lot of shows that attempt this sort of thing end up with tonal whiplash or come off as feeling forced.

Joe himself perfectly describes his own show perfectly in his Season 3 Promo: "You know how most television shows feel like they were made by an energy drink? Well my show feels like it was made by apple cider." It's genuinely one of my favorite show :)

It was a surreal little show. Calm and comforting, like a weighted blanket and a cup of hot chocolate. Joe Pera was a show that really could only exist on Adult Swim as they're always willing to try something different.

Joe Pera feels like an Mr Rogers for adults. His delivery is simple, comforting, and tackles adult dilemmas in such a fresh way. Definitely a comfort show that I’d recommend to anyone.

I think what Joe gets right over other “wholesome” comedies is that it shouldnt constantly be cheery happy fun times. Have your character go through trials that test their spirit-and have them come out the other end stronger and indomitable.

Joe Pera legit gives me the same sense of comfort as Winnie the Pooh does, just a dude, absolute guy, I'd love to be his friend

I saw Joe Pera for the first time when I was stuck in the hospital after a surgery and was going through a lot of sleepless nights. Something about the show was so calming and comforting, really helped me get through the tough nights.

Joe kinda seems like that awkward friend you had in middle school, and despite them not being very interesting, they're still in your friend group well on into your adult years, working the 9 to 5. They don't do anything outstanding, yet you've kept them around, even when some of your other friends have changed out over the years.

I kinda dig it.

I've struggled to describe Joe Pera to curious friends, but you really did a great job navigating what makes the show special. The Bob Ross comparison is especially on point.

I love how wholesome the show feels, you go from the erratic and in your face cartoons to a calm, dry regular guy at 12am.

Great video! I've probably watched "the perfect egg bite" bit a dozen times.

I have so much respect for Adult Swim. Whether a show lasts for one season or twenty, each show is unique in it’s premise and execution. I’ve never been a fan of their live action shows, but at least AS takes risks.

It doesn’t help that in a world of remakes and reboots, AS feels like the only source of genuine creativity and heart.

I was lucky enough to see Joe Pera when he came to my city on standup tour. His on-stage persona is just like his on-screen persona, so I'm happy to say that I think he's just like that.

I shouted from the mezzanine "I love your show, Joe" and he just seemed sad it ended on him. I can't wait to see what else he creates, and I pray he'll get a real budget. I wish there were more shows like Joe Pera Talks with You.

Honestly, I hope the show comes back. It was one of those good feel shows, a show that made me cry because it made me feel comforted.
