Klepper Trailer Has Jordan Klepper Drop His Daily Show/Opposition Character
Perhaps, in the interests of skirting around Malcolm Gladwell’s “Satire Paradox”, Jordan Klepper is leaving little room for interpretation in his latest comedy docu-series coming soon to Comedy Central, the eponymous Klepper.
Within it, Jordan will interview, explore, and in some cases, embed himself in marginalized communities that he wants to, according to this trailer, highlight positively (such as veterans, environmentalists, undocumented immigrants) as opposed to satirizing certain radical groups on The Daily Show or The Opposition by playing an overly pompous, bizarro version of himself.
Just see it for yourself here. If you’re into it, catch the premiere of Klepper’s second series on May 9th at Comedy Central.
