YMMV / How To With John Wilson

• Adorkable: John is very awkward and nerdy, but is generally a sweet and friendly Nice Guy.
• Friendly Fandoms:
  • With Nathan for You. Both star awkward but endearing creators as themselves as they meet wacky characters and find themselves in bizarre situations. This is helped by the fact that Nathan Fielder is the producer and advertised the series.
  • Likewise, fans are often shared with Nathan's other show The Rehearsal, which has a similar tone and sense of humor.
  • With Joe Pera Talks With You, two series following awkward but friendly men as they observe the world. They also share a writer.
• Heartwarming Moments: John and his landlord have a very sweet friendship. It's heartwarming to see how they care for each other.
• Squick: As the series films many random things John sees around New York, he comes across some pretty gross things.
  • See Fan Disservice. The foreskin scene was…unappealing, to say the least.
  • In one episode, John films the smashed corpses of rats multiple times.
  • In another episode, John films multiple dogs defecating.
  • The episode "How To Find a Public Restroom" features multiple shots of the insides of toilet bowls with... well, what you would expect to find inside of them.
