Whilst often mired in its signalling towards far-right Chan culture, those sketches which are not concerned with this infantile pandering tap into the culture in a way scarcely few series or films have been able to over the past decade. If we compare MDE to their most obvious influence, TIm Heidecker, we can see how their comedic sensibility is far more relevant and contemporary than that of Heidecker, whose recycling of comedic scenarios which were outdated 10 years ago (On Cinema's parody of film criticism was old and tired at the time) demonstrates MDE's comparatively insightful sociological observations. The famous Cop Killer sketch stands as a definitive document of the crushed dreams and aspirations of post-industrial America, and why the American revolutionary impulse is so often expressed through indiscriminate violence.
when it's not being blatantly problematic or forcefully political, it's really actually very funny. but those very funny parts don't really outshine the ones outlined above or just the generally unfunny ones

Incredibly funny and extremely different from what passes as comedy in today's television. This show had the balls to make fun of absolutely everything that modern PC culture deemed as untouchable but because of this the show became a target of certain individuals it was promptly cancelled despite its surprisingly high ratings and the shows creator was blacklisted. As someone who has been following the comedian Sam Hyde, the creator of the show, long before World Peace even existed I was very happy to see him given the spotlight but I knew in the back of my mind that due to Sam's type of non conformist edgy humor that he wouldn't stay on the air for long.
