Ninety-one? There are ninety other "Tiger Drivers"? Do any involve actual tigers, or driving?
"Pay a premium to have a ton of cleaning ladies deal with your place in 5 minutes" is one of Nathan's most legit business ideas ever.

I think mean caricaturist is still his best, but it was pretty impressive that they did a good job on it in 8 minutes.

Although, maybe the customer was just being nice.

I think the gag/backfire was supposed to be that so many maids would cause the work and the maids to be clogged. Unfortunately they were so well prepared that it didn't happen.

That was arguably one of the funniest episodes of television last year.

I don't know how this show just keeps getting better. I love it when the idea legitimately kind of works too, it's a nice break from the expected failure and gives you some hope each week that his ridiculous* ideas are actually somehow plausible.

As soon as Nathan suggested poo poo flavoured ice cream I knew he was a secret business genius. It's terrible on the surface but who wouldn't at least sample it to make sure it wasn't just relabelled chocolate of coffee flavour?

I'm fairly confident in saying that I would not sample anything claiming to be poo poo flavored. But that's just crazy ol' me.

the coffin drop was incredible but my favorite single moment had to be Nathan proudly leaning against the side of the billboard headstone as he smugly unveiled it to the pet store owner.

And yet he genuinely seems to wish the best for Nathan even though he's a loving nerd. It's amazing. I love that PI.

Though I wonder how much of his politeness toward Nathan at the beginning has to do with him having his own TV show now Crying Wolfe (presumably in part because of his appearance on Nathan For You).

There’s a fine line between entertaining and deceiving, and “Cry Wolfe” — a half-hour series from Investigation Discovery — dances right up to it. Actually, the idea of taking a real-life private detective, Brian Wolfe, and having actors re-create his cases is ostensibly pretty clever. But after a fleeting disclaimer, the series goes the extra mile to foster the perception that this is all real, including shaky hand-held video and even a faux camera crew following Wolfe as he “investigates” leads. In one respect, at least the program’s aptly named, given the tale about that wolf-crying kid whose fibs resulted in nobody believing him.

Oh, so this is just full-on fake as hell, because there's no way the production is fact-checking what the PI tells them about his "real cases" that they're re-enacting.

Exactly. The episode I saw had lesbians in recovery for addiction where one thought the other was cheating on her and/or drinking again. They immediately find an unopened gifted bottle of wine in her trunk. The bad girl kept disappearing to some shady club that required an ever-changing password for entry, and when he finally got the right password it turned out be an underground sex dungeon. Where the girl goes so she doesn't start drinking again. And naturally he invites the good lesbian into the club without warning her what to expect.

So yeah every episode comes from his own imagination not actual cases.

I wish he'd be in a buddy-cop show with Nathan.

I hope this is just a long con by Nathan setting him up for hilarity.

I always hear people criticize certain comedies like The Office and Curb Your Enthusiasm for leaning so hard into cringe comedy as to become unwatchable. This show would give them a loving stroke. I can't handle this poo poo sometimes, but Nathan's such a fantastic comedian that it still works.

The difference between Office and Curb is that Nathan never comes off as a jerk like Michael or Larry. He's like Michael but instead of being blissfully ignorant- he's so endearing it's hard to tell him "this idea isn't very good."
