Just watched
Well I’m not going to look at Cherry Tomatoes in the same way for a bit

I’ve always felt a bit conflicted about Nathan Fielder’s work, but he’s one of the most excitingly original personalities out there.
This is the first project of his where I’m gushingly excited right from the beginning. So much potential, tension and intrigue in that first episode. Genuinely excited to see how this progresses.

That scene was elevated for me by the choice of name

Ugh. What am I missing? Is it supposed to be funny? Is it supposed to be building dread? I don’t get it

No episode 2 chat? Preeeeeeeety dark.
Only just finished it, and yeah, it feels like it’s taken a slightly more dark and less black comedy turn. My cringe tolerance switch got triggered a few times this episode and I had to stop it four times and go for a little walk each time. I don’t deal well with cringe comedy.
Not sure what to make of it at this point, the first episode had strong dark comedy vibes, but this episode seemed to lean stronger into horror, leaving a residual feeling of dread for what comes next. There’s not a single plot thread that feels like it can end in any way other than purely negatively.
I’ll still watch that garbage.

just seen it. seen some people be quite down on it but I think it’s those who see Fielder’s name attached and are expecting an out and out comedy. A comparison I read was David Lynch doing Nathan For You which seems basic but I get it.
I really liked the second one, thought it gave more insight into the characters and I liked how it didn’t focus mainly around the TV show they’re doing but their personal lives. Good stuff and interested to see where it goes

Yeah the cringe was high in ep 2, was feeling quite uncomfortable at times.
Really not sure what to make of this yet. I think I like it, I’m curious, just don’t know where it’s going.
It’s not going far enough for me I think. Everything is so low energy and in the same tone, feel like I need some peaks and troughs to keep my focus
There’s a 3 month 50% off offer on Paramount+ for those wanting to watch, think I’ll pick it up so can get watching this.

Are all the episodes up at once or is it weekly? I’ll probably get a Paramount free trial when they’re all up
weekly
