A comedy series from Adult Swim network. The series follows a group of five men who live together in the same house. Tim Heidecker, Eric Wareheim, Ron Auster, Ben Hur, Tennessee Luke. In each day, they have to face a new trouble or a misadventure.
Yes, it's funny, and a smart deconstruction of the weird quirks and affectations that can build up over decades within a genre as prescribed as the sitcom. It's also grotesque, though, and genuinely sinister at times.
One feels Heidecker and Wareheim would do anything for a laugh and that the horrible, humiliating acts they haven't put on film or performed in public are just the ones they haven't had time to get to yet.
Like much of their work, the show maintains an impressive balance of satire, reverence, and gleeful filth that's both familiar and completely unlike anything else on TV.
