Kahn, former producers of "The
Daily Show," are executive pro-
ducers for "Full Frontal," and a
number of the show's writers
have "Daily Show" credits as
well.
With Donald Trump in the
White House, Bee has more ma-
terial than she knows what to
do with, but the show shines its
satirical spotlight beyond Wash-
ington as well. Bee is nothing if
not well informed, and her re-
search team leaves no stone un-
turned. "The main thing we
have is that we are very hon-
est," she said in an interview
with the Globe and Mail. She
feels as strongly about the im-
portance of local politics as she
does about what's going on at a
federal level, and, when moved,
has just as much to say about it.
And people are listening. In
one memorable episode, Bee
addressed the hundreds of thou-
sands of rape kits that go un-
tested in the United States (the
show is still a comedy, I swear!).
The host called out Republican
Sen. Renee Unterman, among
others, who blocked a bill re-
quiring rape kit testing, despite
it being passed unanimously
(unanimously!) in Georgia. The
segment caused so much back-
lash that the show has been
credited with finally getting the
bill to go through.
The show's first season left
little to be desired. The February
2016 premiere drew a total av-
erage audience of 914,000, and
the show has demonstrated a
slow but steady climb from
there. The lead-up to the presi-
dential election saw a signifi-
cant jump in viewership, and the
Jan. 11 episode, which aired a
little before President Trump's
inauguration, saw an audience
of 2.11 million. The show scored
an impressive number of award
nods in its freshman year, in-
cluding an Emmy nomination
and a Television Critics Associa-
tion Award win for Outstanding
Achievement in News and
Information.
Earlier this season, the show
aired its "Not the White House
Correspondents Dinner" special,
which drew a much bigger audi-
ence in the 18 to 49 demograph-
ic than the actual White House
Correspondents Dinner airing at
the same time on CNN. The
event raised $200,000 for the
Committee to Protect
Journalists.
