Am I just not smart enough for this show?


I just finished binging season one and all I feel is, well that just happened.
Nothing I saw would let me think this would get a season 2.

I don't know.

reply

Yeah, No.

This show is just not my cup of tea.

God Bless and good luck with all that.

I couldn't get into it either.

But the shows creator also co-created Peep Show and Fresh Meat both of which I enjoyed.

reply

No, you're spot on. This show is a one trick pony.

At first I had my doubts about it but then I grew to love it! It takes more than one season to get into it. I liked Season 2 the most out of all three.

reply

If all you can say at the end of Season 1 is ‘I don’t know,’ then it definitely wasn’t for you.

It is an absurdist black comedy. Took me about four episodes to buy in - I think it was seeing how vicious Logan was after his eldest son saved the company (and proved not to be the silly schmuck he had first appeared) - I was so expecting a schmaltzy 'well done, son', but that is -not- what happened.
