With his insightful wit and fearless candor, comedian John Oliver, formerly of the The Daily Show (1996), reviews the crazy current affairs happening in America and around the world. In doing so, he provides a wry perspective that punctures pomposity and cuts through all pretensions with comically outrageous audacity.

This is a CORRECTION of the torrent:

Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (2014) S01-S11 Seasons 1-11 COMPLETE jZQ

which was deleted because Season 11 was missing S11E26 - S11E30. If you downloaded that torrent, then you can just download those 5 episodes to have the full season 11 and full S01-S11 collection.

I omitted those 5 episodes because none of them were listed on IMDB when I created the torrent. S11E25 was (seemingly) the last episode of the season.

Turns out that the absence of future episodes on IMDB does not mean the season is lover. ??

This torrent has all 320 episodes in seasons 1 - 11.

Weirdly, IMDB says there are 366 episodes. I checked every season folder against the episodes listed on IMDB. It must be an IMDB mistake.

The file 'IMDB Ratings.txt' has the 315 episodes in descending IMDB rating. Here are the 10 top-rated episodes:

9.6 S06E29 SLAPP Suits IMDB 9.6 (Aired 2019-11-10)
9.5 S02E08 Government Surveillance IMDB 9.5 (Aired 2015-04-05)
9.3 S02E25 Church IMDB 9.3 (Aired 2015-08-16)
9.3 S03E03 Donald Trump IMDB 9.3 (Aired 2016-02-28)
9.0 S04E01 Trump vs Truth IMDB 9.0 (Aired 2017-02-12)
8.9 S11E01 Supreme Court IMDB 8.9 (Aired 2024-02-18)

8.8 S02E24 Sex Ed IMDB 8.8 (Aired 2015-08-09)

'IMDB Ratings.txt' also has the average episode rating for each season. The averages show only a small drop-off:

Average rating: 8.04

Season 1 average rating: 8.25
Season 2 average rating: 8.30
Season 3 average rating: 8.21
Season 4 average rating: 8.26
Season 5 average rating: 8.03
Season 6 average rating: 8.10
Season 7 average rating: 8.06
Season 8 average rating: 7.69
Season 9 average rating: 7.81
Season 10 average rating: 7.75
Season 11 average rating: 7.88

Across all 315 episodes, the average episode rating is 8.04, compared to the show's 8.8 IMDB rating. I see discrepancies in episode ratings vs the show ratings all the time -- but usually the episode ratings are higher.

Other files:

Double-click 'IMDB.html' to go to the show's IMDB page.

Double-click 'TheShowGrid.html' to go to a really wonderful chart showing the episodes' IMDB ratings by season, with colors breaking out ranges of ratings. For example, there are 5 purple boxes, which are the episodes with IMDB rating of 9.0 or higher. There is only one light green cell, for the only episode with an IMDB rating under 7.0. Click any of the cells to go to that episode's IMDB page.

All of the episodes have English subtitles and an Emby-generated NFO file that contains information like this:

This is the NFO key data for S11E01, which should be representative of the other season 11 episodes:

Seasons 1-3 have larger files, like ~600MB-1.1GB. 4-11 have relatively small video files, ~290-425 MB.

IMO small files are fine for a show like Last Week Tonight. Looking at recent TL uploads, the episodes range from 1.1 to 3.1 GB. The most common size is 2.8 GB. At that size, this torrent would be (315 x 2.8 =) 882 GB -- instead of 145 GB.

Enjoy!
