Search Party is a dark comedy about four self-absorbed twenty-somethings who become entangled in an ominous mystery when a former college acquaintance suddenly disappears.
Search Party season 4 features these fantastic characters at their lowest lows. It's challenging territory, but it showcases just how articulate this comedy is and it leads to many of the most dramatic and hilarious moments from the entire series.
The irony and millennial jabs are still here and there, but the tone is more serious. It's what the series needed, however, as jokes and gimmicks were starting to fall short.
The first half of the 10-part season is much more compelling than the second, which borrows a few too many twists from daytime soaps. But the initial five chapters are Search Party at its best.
