I love talk shows. That's what drew me to "The Choe Show." But Dave Choe's show goes w-a-a-a-a-a-y past the limits of two people having a chat. These are therapy sessions. We get a unique understanding of both the guests and the host. These four episodes are four works of art.
The typical talk show host works with a lot of safeguards. The guest has obviously been carefully pre-screened by someone on the staff (you'll see the host glance at their notes and suddenly ask, out of no where, "So, tell us about what happened to you in the Grand Tetons."). Dave Choe is working without a net. No protections. No safeguards.
As an artists he'll actually create art with his guests. Bits of prior episodes will bleed into later ones. The interviews are done in his childhood home, now turned into a studio thick with art.
There's a part of all of us that will stand apart and critically appraise whatever we see. It will ask "Is this good?" "Do I like it?" "How should I classify this?" Fire a tranquilizing dart into that judgmental self. Just throw yourself into "The Choe Show." Watch it without nets, without protections, without safeguards.
