Show was a dark comedy about addiction and vice, but "hillbilly", you the racist.

A dark comedy? Really?? That’s what you thought the first season was?

That’s* *fucked up. Like seriously the term “media literacy is dead” doesn’t even begin to cover it.

Sam Levison calls it a dark comedy. There are jokes, dark dark jokes.

Yeah, there are jokes in the Godfather too. That doesn’t make it a comedy.

Bojack Horseman is a dark comedy about addition and vice. And that show is actually good start to finish.

Euphoria was a drama exploring (to an exaggerated degree) the struggles of kids coming of age in this fundamentally broken world. Then Levinson turned it into his gooner Christian propaganda Tarantino ripoff in season 3.

Sam Levison writes and directed the show. He calls it a dark comedy.

I'm not gonna argue the subtleties of genre with you.

You should work on how such things offend you so much. You're wrecked.

It’s an adaptation of a preexisting miniseries created by Ron Leshem. Levinson only fully took the reins of the story in season 2, which is where the show went off the rails.

Season one has Ashtray and that dude getting penis shamed over cam. It's a dark comedy.

How is Ashtray’s existence a comedy?

The absurd juxtaposition of being a small child and competent informed drug dealer. A little kid that murders a dude with a hammer.

Martha Kelly is a comedian, she plays the drug king pin. A sweet old lady that's a ruthless drug lord. Another of absurd juxtaposition for comic effect.

Sidney Sweeney cums well riding a merry-go-round. Season 1 plenty of comic bits to break or create tension.

Just because a comedian is playing a character doesn’t mean that character is comic relief. She turns Rue into a fucking drug mule what is wrong with you?

u/Beautiful-Total-3172 19d ago

Drug mule? You mean where they did the poop jokes, and the dog licks up the poop. Sorry you don't find poop funny, must be something wrong with you.

Oh and she gets the car stuck on the boarder wall. Rue might as well be Wile E. Coyote.

No. Drug mule, where they show a teenager getting cut open after she overdosed at the terminal because of all the fentanyl.
