It's as if David Lynch went into the backwoods + started smoking


Crack! And then he came up with this show. That's a compliment. I can't help but think of TWIN PEAKS when I watch this show. I think a lot of it is funny and inventive. But I think it's like AQUA TEEN HUNGER FORCE and SQUIDBILLIES. The humor is quick and off the wall and it takes another viewing for me to really chuck it up.

I too was reminded of Twin Peaks during certain scenes... In fact I just got on IMDb to say that this show felt like what would happen if David Lynch decided to do a sitcom. I hope they do a second season.

David Lynch did do a sitcom (or at least a comedy). "On The Air". pretty odd stuff, for sure, but great!

Don't forget Rabbits. I was surprised to learn that the actress who plays Memaw played Beautiful Girl From Across the Hall in Eraserhead.

It's like a cross between Mama's family and The Twilight Zone.

This is a weird and stupid show, I don't think it is funny at all.

reply

Thankfully for fans of the show, your opinion is of no consequence.

reply

I agree. It's disturbing, grotesque and absurd, but not all that funny.
