To hear often the complaint that “Oh my God, Hollywood is dying, there is no new one under the sun, these Americans can’t figure out new things, only the remakes, reboots, and all kinds of franchise films flood us.” That’s what I say to dig deeper, and if there is nothing to look at, search for hidden treasures. Somehow I found it in the Kevin Can F**k Himself which I barely started on Amazon Prime, by the time I reached the headline, so it became clear to me about 2-3 minutes later: this is something I have never seen before.

It’s a big word, because otherwise I watch a lot of series, and nowadays it is less and less to surprise anything. Originally debuted on the AMC cable channel in June 2021, the specialty of two short seasons is that it mixes two genres that have nothing to do with each other on paper.

The series revolves around a couple, and if one of them, Kevin (Eric Petersen), would ask, the guy would answer ten times out of ten times with his wife Allison (Annie Murphy) fun and laugh. Accordingly, every scene where Kevin is present was spoke with jokes, warfare, and colorful photography. Like a sort of mood like that A terrible familyBan, and the calling and the humor are at least as hard as it was there. From Allison, a Peggy Bundy could be smooth, who cuts fun with her husband’s jerk, sexist and offensive comments, but the female protagonist of Kevin can f ** k was not made of such wood. But from harder, much harder.

It is a technical feat, and it is really amazing that when Kevin is not present in the series and Allison is left alone, he does his everyday tasks, his work, the tone of the series turns much darker. Not only does the end result become thrilled, but dialogues are much more serious, and the wife’s sieve-karicikure turns into a meat-blood, tangible, painful woman. It is also happened in such a darker moment that Allison decides that it was enough for Kevin’s offending fun and costs what it costs, but killing her husband.

We get two series for a price and shocking seeespecially at the beginning, how gloomy and the samely played scenes that are played by the humble, and the otherwise funny, played scenes are replaced by the drama. Not only do the writers need to be praised, the actors also make the most of them to make such a job. The previously the Sheep’s CreekAnnie Murphy, in the sithomreterean, in particular, in particular, but Mary Hollis Inboden, who is impersonating her neighbor, also shows us two different sides of her character called Patricia.

It is good to have fun with Kevin can f ** k, but surprisingly, the creators also came to life storytelling. Thanks to this, we can see how the couple processes their own, very different perspective on their savings, spending their savings on stupidity, but throwing it too easy to get drugs and weapons in the US, the theme of wasted and left.

Not only is Annie Murphy brilliant, Eric Petersen, who plays quasi -main vicinity, works for his money, even in the scenarous snitts, the husband of the series is climbing into the palm

The time of playing time, say, too long, and as the series moves forward, sometimes in terms of quality and emphasis, the balance of the balance is in the comedy or dramatic direction, depending on the serial episode. At the same time, Kevin can f ** k is terribly effective as a concept, even if it sometimes occurs due to the explanation of 8-8 parts.

AMC is now fashionable to be dirty that everything was better in the past, and anyway, when to make the new The Walking Deadet, Breaking Bador Preachert. Even though they still have their original, never -seen and unconscious creativity ideas, Interview with the vampire-There are a lot of good things to hear about a series of TVs. It would only be nice if more than two people were looking at these content. Kevin can f ** k would also have some hype, deserve it.
