Anyone here watch South Side? I just finished season 3. It’s also quite funny. I think it and The Other Two must’ve started on Comedy Central around the same time because I always link them in my head.
I'm so happy to have this show back and happy that you are reviewing it.
I like Brooke and Cary, but I perhaps little less sympathetic to their unhappiness than you are. If you can't be content when you have plenty of money and free time, that's kinda on you. Which is not to say I'm not empathetic when it comes to lots of their neuroses, just that there is a ceiling to how sympathetic I can be to people who have achieved a lot of material success.
So many good jokes. As an avid consumer of queer teen TV dramas, the Love, Victor twist hit particularly hard. But it was all gold. I don't quite have the same relationship with teen armpit photos that the characters in the show have, but there was still something uncomfortably true about that whole thing.
Speaking of uncomfortable, I hate to admit I don't know what B is.
Kelly and Schneider have expressed some uncertainty about whether they want to continue The Other Two after this season. I can only assume that that depends on how successful they are in shopping around the Barbacado spin-off.
This and Taskmaster are the only two shows that make me laugh out loud while watching. So happy it’s back, and that you’re reviewing it here.
The core of the show - simple but effective -- is that the family still loves each other, even around the craziness. Crucial when the show was about them in relationship to Chase, crucial in expanding it to what it is now.
I do miss The Other Show, didn’t see it in the extras this season.
It was very weird to me that Carey and Brooke both wore the same outfit to the premiere, seemingly on accident, but then... both continued to wear the same outfit for three consecutive days to events where they knew the other one would be?
The "VOD"/Hulu thing confused me, too, but then I thought maybe it was Cary who was confused, and the reason he didn't find it on Hulu when he finally got in was that it wasn't streaming yet. But that's a stretch.
Is this the funniest scripted show on TV? Maybe!

“I finally got the Barbacados to sleep, they wanted 4 stories!”

the recurring vampire teeth gag that appeared whenever anyone asked how old Chase was and he said, "18" made me choke on my lemon-lime seltzer.
"this fuckin' town, man..."

Great eps, great review. Laughed out loud repeatedly. Not everything worked, but the writers are absolutely going for it this season. Can't wait.
