ReaderKenka Let's be realistic.
SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
adair0956 I loved this show. I'm 61, it's definitely adult, & sometimes I can't believe what they get away with putting on TV, but I love it. It's very funny, upbeat, & I the like the variety of stories & characters. The music is good too, with musicians appearing in each episode. I've recommended it to my daughter & my sister.
meli-07030 TGB has some funny stories and people. Each episode is sprinkled with some obvious and more subtle laughs. The weekly anthologies too often introduce characters who are just too unlikable and/or just make you cringe. The episode with Michael Rappaport was one of those episodes. He was supposed to be lovable (I think) but it never developed (spoiler alert) and ended with him slamming the door on what might have been his soul mate. For a comedy, I just don't need the cringe worthy ending. Several of the episodes left me with that feeling.
Charles Herold (cherold) Since this is apparently an anthology series, it's perhaps unfair to judge the series based on an episode whose main characters won't be seen again. But I found the episode so off-putting - not for the acting but for the writing - that I can't bring myself to watch another.In this episode, a man and his wife spend a weekend in a rustic area and encounter difficulties. Danny Pudi plays the husband as likable and put upon. Lauren Lapkus plays the wife as a shrieking harpy.There are problems with this. First, it's not fun to be around a shrieking harpy. Second, it's not funny, it's just straight up irritating. And third, the whole nice guy/monster wife thing feels like something from a previous era when the "battle of the sexes" was a thing. I hoped that at some point the episode would show sympathy for the wife, who is a frazzled new mom, but no, she's just awful.It's not that Pudi's character is better than her; he's pretty much a scumbag. But it's one of these shows that creates sympathy for the awful man by telling things from his perspective. Oh, poor guy!If they were both shrews, then fine, it could be funny. If they were both struggling and prone to miscommunication but ultimately human, fine. But this ... no.In general, nothing was all that funny. There was the occasional moment, like a lap dance interrupted because the room is a supply closet, but I rarely laughed.I loved Garcia's My Name is Earl and Raising Hope, so I might have given this show another chance if it wasn't that his most recent series was the abysmal The Millers. Whatever Garcia had, I think he's lost it.
thom-gillespie I watched the first episode and was not sold and didn't plan to watch anymore but stumbled on episode 3 and was totally blown away. This is basically Room 104 done right with an incredible sense of humor, good dialog, great acting and no laugh track.Highly recommended.
