VIDEO: John Oliver Says 'Good Riddance' to Migrating Birds on LAST WEEK Web Exclusive

HBO's LAST WEEK TONIGHT WITH JOHN OLIVER is now on summer hiatus, but the Emmy nominee does not seem to be doing much relaxing. Below, watch an all-new clip posted to the show's Youtube channel in which Oliver says good riddance to birds now migrating to warmer climates.

LAST WEEK TONIGHT is the only weekly news-oriented comedy series to be presented on Sunday night. Taped in New York a few hours before it debuts on HBO, the show features a mix of Oliver's topical commentary, pre-taped pieces and occasional guests.

The show received an Emmy® in the category of Outstanding Interactive Program, and was nominated for four Primetime Emmys® overall last year, including Outstanding Variety Talk Series and Outstanding Writing for a Variety Series. The show was recently honored at the 21st Critics Choice Awards in the category of Best Talk Show, and previously received a Peabody Award, as well as Writers Guild Award in the category of Comedy/Variety (Including Talk)?-?Series.

LAST WEEK TONIGHT WITH JOHN OLIVER continued to garner widespread critical acclaim in its second season. The Financial Times hailed Oliver as "American television's satirist-in-chief," while Vulture called him "the most important person in television." The New Yorker observed, "Oliver is a master of tone and timing," adding, "for clarity of expression and comedic effectiveness, John Oliver's show may be the best and purest show on television." In addition, it was named to numerous "best of" lists for 2014, including Rolling Stone, the Huffington Post, the Hollywood Reporter and Indiewire, and was recognized bySPORTS ILLUSTRATED in its Year in Sports Media feature.
