  • Anyone else sitting in quarantine binge watching all these old episodes of John Oliver or just me?
  • @Wolfman71691
    Dr Oz has two ivy league degrees, yet he speaks nothing but utter bullshit on TV WTF???
  • This hits so good after seeing Oz getting his butt handed to him in the election.
  • I am 100% sure that Steve Buscemi's tap dancing is way more magical and good for your health, than Dr. Oz's Nutritional Supplements.
  • @13randydandy
    Cher once said, "If a good body came in a bottle, we'ed all have one."
  • I like how George R. R. Martin's greeting is, "I just killed three of your favorite characters."
  • @rdc2021
    All of John Oliver's shows are still great but this one aged perfectly given that Oz is running for office
  • @alexmenke3608
    Important to rewatch now that Oz has announced he's running for political office. Main lesson: Oz is full of it
  • @jolymac
    "Like the sunlight shines on the hidden, grassy meadow, so does chlamydia cast a warm glow on your private parts." That is such a Monty Python-esque moment.
  • "If one in three milk bottles didn't contain milk, you'd think twice about pouring that white mystery liquid over your cereal," He says as I take a bite of my Lucky Charms. Great.
  • Although this show was made 7 years ago this issue continues . It continues more than ever. Thank you for this info with such serious comedy. đź‘Ť
  • Watching this again to celebrate Dr. Oz's defeat in Pennsylvania.
  • @scottydog6713
    as someone who NEEDS supplements for actual dietary problems, god i wish they were regulated
  • “Neither I nor the puppy are making unsubstantiated claims about potentially dangerous dietary supplements.” If there ever were one sentence that perfectly described this show, I think we found it XD
  • John: “hey Steve, you wanna be on my show for a minute or two?” Steve: sure, want me to provide some scintillating commentary on the latest issue? John: nah man just tap dance
  • @Diana-mu7pc
    Is no one going to appreciate the 3 blind mice in the image at 3:15? Whoever made that photo is my hero.
  • As an analytical chemist, I tested a supplement produced by 10 different companies that supposedly had the same active ingredient that claimed to lose weight. Nine of the 10 of those supplements did not even have the active ingredient.
  • 14:12 John Oliver - “Everyone likes puppies, don’t they!? Here’s a puppy right now.” Dr. OZ - “I’ll take it!!! ….. for research.”
