MW Review
This may be one of the funniest shows I’ve ever seen. Made so even more by the fact that I work in “the industry” now and can confirm that much like Veep this is not entirely satire. First, let’s talk about how incredibly angry I am that this show didn’t get any major Emmy nominations. I mean if there was ever a time to have your last season be up for nomination it was post a writer’s strike and yet we get NOTHING! I will not forget this academy. I will NOT!
Secondly, this lack of nominations could be due to the fact that the show I BELIVE was cancelled due to the extremely toxic work environment. Which both makes me furious and adds a huge layer of irony to this show.
Thirdly, I was on this show from back in 2020. I LOVE this show. But I think this might be the funniest show that no one really watched. Which makes me extremely sad. If you need a show that makes you simultaneously giggle and hate privileged white people more go watch this. The acting is phenomenal, the jokes impeccable and the absurdity and mocking of the entertainment industry is both true and chef’s kiss.
I will say I could have used about two more seasons of this show at the very least, but I didn’t hate how it ended. If you need some funny go watch this ASAP.
