want to feel insane? watch this completely inscrutable and bizarre failed “sitcom” that feels like it came from another planet. low budget, acting is horrendous, insane laugh track. not a single joke lands. extremely cursed

Still gonna be a Letterboxd guy first and foremost – sorry! – so I have to be true to myself and share my most recent five star discovery, this failed NBC pilot from 1991. Lookwell is pure comedy heaven, not a wasted joke in its short runtime, with Adam West’s self aware turn on Family Guy done here first but better. Special bonus: a major role from TÁR director Todd Field?? Perhaps we wouldn’t have either that film or Conan’s classic Late Night run if this had actually been picked up to series, though this is so perfect it’s hard not to wonder what a few seasons would have been like…but at least we’ll always have this.

dunno why they tried to export the inbetweeners by giving it an american reboot when the show is so intrinsically british in its humor but the end result was a complete dumpster fire (unsurprisingly).
some shows that weren’t remade (amen 🙏🏾🙏🏾) but still deserve to be spotlighted in this post are: people just do nothing (cannot recommended more), chewing gum, this country, and misfits. all hilarious imo, comedy television is like one of the only things we’re doing right.

Randomly one of the all-time greatest TV shows. British humor (but fish out of water, set in LA) + Matt LeBlanc playing himself. Lucky you if you have Showtime or Paramount+ for whatever reason...

i love hearing that girl sing her heart out in the shower through the bathroom vent. or the guy hocking insane loogies all the time. the alternating smells of delicious homemade chinese food or something totally burning in the oven… am always wondering if its the same kitchen!
