Ep 10. Episode 10

Tosh.0 is a comedy show hosted by Daniel Tosh that airs on Comedy Central. Season 1 episode 10 is titled ‘Episode 10’. Each episode of Tosh.0 revolves around the host's commentary on viral videos, internet memes, and social media trends.

In episode 10, Tosh begins the show by sharing his views on a new fitness trend known as ‘Jogging in Water’. The segment features a viral video of a woman jogging in a pool. Tosh comments on the futility of such an exercise and ridicules the woman in the video. He also goes on to discuss the absurdity of other fitness trends that have gained popularity in recent years.

The episode then moves on to a segment where Tosh shares his opinions on popular online videos that have gone viral. This section of the show is called ‘Web Redemption’ where Tosh gives an individual who has done something foolish or embarrassing online a chance to redeem themselves. In this episode, Tosh helps a young skater to redeem himself after a video of him falling off his skateboard while attempting a trick went viral. Tosh brings the skater onto the show and has him attempt the same trick in a safer setting while also offering words of encouragement.

The next segment of the show is called ‘Is It Racist?’ where Tosh tries to find out if a particular clip or phrase is racist or not. In this episode, Tosh puts a clip of a news anchor saying ‘Chink in the Armor’ on trial. He brings in a jury, consisting of people from different ethnic backgrounds, to decide if the phrase is indeed racist or not. The segment is funny, yet informative as Tosh educates the audience on why certain phrases can be considered offensive.

In another segment, Tosh makes fun of an episode of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition that involves a family of hoarders. Tosh comments on the irony of the show’s premise and pokes fun at how the show is trying to help hoarders by giving them more stuff. He also notes the genuinely heartwarming parts of the show as well.

Finally, Tosh wraps up the episode by commenting on various TV shows and commercials that have aired recently. He unapologetically ridicules some of the shows and commercials that he believes are poorly made, poorly thought-out or simply bizarre. In one segment, he singles out an advertisement for a smoking cessation aid which features a woman who has quit smoking and starts acting like an obnoxious cheerleader. Tosh finds the ad tone-deaf and shares his derision with the audience.

In conclusion, Tosh.0 season 1 episode 10 features topical, irreverent humor. The episode is an excellent example of how the show blends jokes and commentary with clips from the internet and television media. Daniel Tosh’s no-holds-barred approach to comedy may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but for those who appreciate satirical humor, Tosh.0 is definitely worth checking out.
