OT: Schitt's Creek

If you have a Prime subscription, and can appreciate some (extremely) dry humor, definitely check this show out!


Eugene Levy and Catherine O'Hara are the two main characters, so if you've seen any of the Christopher Guest movies you can probably guess the type of humor in the show. It's a Green Acres-type story about a wealthy family who loses everything and has to move to a town that they bought for their son as a joke at one point.


It's pretty by-the-books as far as plot goes, but where the show really shines is in its characters. Eugene Levy's son Dan plays his son on the show as well, and is by far the funniest person (stealing pretty much every scene he's in as the bitchy pansexual fashion-conscious fish out of water). Lots of familiar old SNL faces show up every now and then too. The episodes are half an hour and the seasons are 12-13 episodes so it's a total breeze to binge in a short amount of time.


If you're still on the fence, here's a gif with some very AHS-esque dialog-

Less than forget. But more than begun.
