The Jim Jefferies Show is a satirical late-night talk show hosted by Jim Jefferies, where he discusses relevant news of the week with a comedic spin. Unlike many of his talk show neighbors, Jefferies doesn't focus on guest appearances, mainly relying on his own act to carry it. The show is also notable for interviews with various figures, and for early on in its run featuring skits with Brad Pitt as the weatherman.The show began airing on Comedy Central on June 6, 2017. Initially planned as ten episodes, it was later extended to twenty. The show was renewed for a second season on January 15, 2018, and for a third season on January 30, 2019.

Does This Remind You of Anything?: You can expect Jim to do this. For example, when he visited Melania Trump's hometown of Sevnica, Slovenia: He first visited a bakery who sold a "Melania Cake": Then, when he visited another bakery:

The Cameo: The show got a lot of early publicity for having Brad Pitt appear as the show's weatherman.

Stealth Pun: In one episode, Jim sent four correspondents to Politicoan, and the African-American correspondent interviewed an African American man wearing a "Make America Great Again" cap, and at one point asked him if he would vote in an election if he didn't like the candidates or policies on the ballot, when the guy said no, he was asked what he would do, and the guy said that during the election he'd stay in his house. The correspondent said he looks like the type who belongs inside a house. The correspondent essentially called the guy a "house negro."note During the time of slavery there were two types of slaves, field slaves and house slaves. The ones who worked the fields were the ones who tried to escape in greater numbers due to their harsh treatment that included poor quality food, beatings, and other tortures, as they were essentially seen as beasts of burden or sentient farm equipment. House slaves, or "house negroes", were treated much better, they were given better quality food, allowed to stay in the house, essentially making them a Human Pet, and as such were much more loyal than field slaves.

"Not Making This Up" Disclaimer: When Jim showed a study that stated that 58% of people had a negative view on college education against 36% who found it positive, Jim said that the remaining 6% thinks that chocolate milk comes from brown cows. He then stated that he was joking... before saying that it's actually 7% who believe that and showing an article reporting it.

Pun: When discussing Brett Kavanaugh and "victimhood", he jokes about carrying his calendars with him at all times "just in case".
