Samantha Bee Unleashes Her Satire on Late Night

Samantha Bee spent years working as the behind-the-scenes maestro at Jon Stewart’s The Daily Show before scoring her own late-night show, Full Frontal With Samantha Bee. As the only woman in a notoriously testosterone-infused club, Ms. Bee graces our TVs with her witty rejoinders, political satire and general hilarity, poking fun at everything from her own femininity to the Supreme Court’s vacant seat to the GOP presidential race. Watch the clips below to see Samantha in action, and tune in to TBS on Monday nights at 10:30/9:30c to watch live episodes of Full Frontal.

Clip 1: I Am Woman, Hear Me Roar!
When you’re a woman on late night, you inevitably field questions about your…woman-ness. Samantha handles them with aplomb and, of course, a little bit of witchcraft.

Clip 2: Ms. Bee Caters to No One
Pandering in politics is ubiquitous. The good thing is that the rampant pandering in the Democratic Party gives Samantha Bee no shortage of wisdom to impart and people to make fun of.

Clip 3: Samantha Breaks into the Boy’s Club
Samantha, a mother of two girls, wants to encourage her daughters and other women to “lean in,” just as she did when she entered the esteemed phallic clique that is late-night TV. But, evidently, it’s easier said than done.
