Hard to breath.What's life like living in a bubble?
I don't think 'dark comedy," which is what this show is labeled, is really meant to cause the viewer to openly laugh and out o control jovial. I think the comedy aspect is merely a smiling recognition of relatability with the viewer. That is how I interpret it.Looks interesting, but I wouldn't call it a "comedy." It looks like a man suffering depression trying to figure life out. Tragic and introspective, maybe mildly amusing, but hardly a comedy.
Reality is often overrated, at times too morose, mundane, frustrating, and sometimes, oddly aloof. Entertainment that gives you a temporary vacation from yourself is often welcomed.Actually, I prefer my entertainment to be detached from reality.
As a counterpoint I'm 49 and love a *ton* of stuff on ATV+. So far my wife and I have watchedTV- is mostly geared towards the 35 and under crowd, though produced mostly by older farts my age. Go figure!
Boy is this true. Popular music as well.
What shows do you watch in general that are not detached from reality and are relatable to you out of curiosity?can’t speak for him and obviously tastes differ but this type of lovable loser / navel gazing storyline is getting really tiresome. It’s been don’t to death and a little bit of a more heartfelt tone isn’t going to help.
these storylines are becoming more and more detached from reality and hence Are becoming increasingly unrelatable, at least for me. I get that ATV+ is trying to go in a different direction than most other content providers, it’s just that for me ( and I guess some others ) it misses the mark.
Joseph is the Doug McClure of our time , should have been biggerI do not understand why he is not a bigger star.
I agree. Life can be hard enough at times. I am not looking to watch shows that leave be sullen.i love joseph. i don't care for the subject matter, i feel over inundated with mental illness - shows, stories, articles, threads, social media posts, etc. but i'll care if it is executed well and it manages to be entertaining.
Then ATV + is for you, for sure.As a counterpoint I'm 49 and love a *ton* of stuff on ATV+. So far my wife and I have watched

And by and large they've been great, engaging television. There's a bunch of other stuff one or both of us want to watch but we just haven't gotten around to and we're looking forward to more of the shows we're already watching.
Worth every penny for us. Wouldn't change a thing besides giving us more.
Depression is funny when it happens to men, don’t you know?Looks interesting, but I wouldn't call it a "comedy." It looks like a man suffering depression trying to figure life out. Tragic and introspective, maybe mildly amusing, but hardly a comedy.
Amazing stories with a whopping four episodes. They were decent, just like the show back in the day. Was looking forward to more of those.Then ATV + is for you, for sure.
It’s like mosquito coast = zero pointI don't really understand the point of this story
