Alia Shawkat is great in this show


Shawkat, arguably most famous for the role of Maeby on Arrested Development, has quietly been amassing a body of work proving what a unique actress she is. Search Party should be her breakout moment, as she shows off an incredible range playing a character slowly spiraling out of control due to obsession. It could’ve easily turned into a manic caricature, but Shawkat keeps it grounded and sympathetic: http://www.cutprintfilm.com/features/best-performances-2016/

I never heard of her before watching this show, but I agree, she is definitely one to be watched.
