Netflix Cancels The Patriot Act?

Too bad but it's not that surprising. You can only have so many Daily show alum copycat shows going at once.
Fuck. One of the best and most informative shows. Its always playing with fire when it comes to Netflix.
Damn this show was really really good and informative. Not only did they do their research well, but the presentation was awesome. And there are some downright incredible episodes: MBS/Saudi Arabia, Modi, Trudeau etc. Way better than normal shows of this format and pretty much all of the ones currently airing on TV, including the Daily Show. Also was nice to see the different cultural perspective provided by Hasan - lots of my Indian/Pakistani friends really related to that and praised the authenticity.
I'm really surprised it's been canceled.

This is such a bummer. I really enjoyed this, it was a fairly more culture conscious Last Week Tonight. Ugh, Netflix why do you keep failing all of us.
NOOO
Patriot act was incredible. Most of the standup and talk shows that focus on politics and comedy *cough cough Colbert cough* are super unfunny. Hasan has the perfect mix of comedy and information and focusing on enjoyable topics that have a lot of range

That sucks, but maybe I'm part of the problem since I always watched them on YT rather than Netflix.
i haven't seen one episode of it.
Has he been doing any shows remote like John Oliver and others?
I hear ya. Hasan is way better than John Oliver but clearly not even remotely as popular.
I'm just not interested in the funny hitting takes on news anymore. I just get stuff from twitter or whatever.
That's a shame Hasan definitely was geared for a much younger audience compared to shows like LWT or Full Frontal, not to mention his stronger insights and focus on Asian issues and topics was great. Sure there's a lot of overlap between these shows but catering to more specific demographics was a good thing.
The show had good content but holy shit I find his voice grating and he's really not all that funny. And holy fuck what is it with his arms wailing permanently while he talks.
