Obliterated (2023)
Lots of good dumb fun!
If you go into this show expecting action and humor, you won't be disappointed!! It's great fun! I wish there were more shows like this!
I suppose if you take yourself too seriously and are expecting a dramatic set piece this won't be for you. The plot holes are big enough to drive a truck through, but if that's what you're focusing on then you've entirely missed the point of the show.
The only warning I'd give is that it's not the kind of show that you'd watch with the whole family. The comedy is great and will have you laughing out loud, but definitely not PG.
All in all this show was way better than expected and it's a shame it won't be coming back for another season.
Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (2014)
Used to be great!
The early seasons of this show did a great job investigating topics you might not usually consider, with a fun comedic style. The later seasons seem to have turned down the comedy and turned up the political partisanship, which is a bit of a shame as the overall program is less entertaining as a result.
A Simple Favor (2018)
Something different!
I wasn't quite sure what to make of this movie. I really enjoyed it, but couldn't figure out if it was a crime movie, comedy, or what? It was one of the more unique movies I saw in all of 2018. The fact that didn't fit into any specific category I thought was an original approach and lent a fresh quality to the movie that left you unsure of what was going to happen next.
