John Oliver explains the origin of LastWeekTonightWithJohnOliver's hilarious Adam Driver jokes.
John Oliver explains how Last Week Tonight with John Oliver came up with the jokes about Adam Driver. The multiple Emmy Award-winning talk show is best known for its thoroughly researched weekly analyses on current political events and news topics, such as coal mining and opioids. The show also takes an unrelenting willingness for its satirical views, and performs maximum stunts for comedic purposes, including purchasing Russell Crowe's jockstrap and conducting a Bob Murray dance number.
"No, that was a one-off joke. That was one of the final shows that we actually had in the studio before the pandemic kicked in. I just liked it because it was a really funny joke. The audience seemed to like it a little bit and be very uncomfortable as well. And it was the perfect synthesis of those two reactions. So then we did it again and then again and it felt like a really fun joke format.
