Alright - this was one of my absolute favorite shows of 2017, a tough-to-describe cross between Nathan for You and Flight of the Conchords with plenty of very specific '90s and '00s gaming and movie and TV references thrown in. It felt almost tailor-made for me. It's made in Canada and the first season aired on something called Viceland in America. When Season 2 rolled around in October for Canadians, there was no American release date in sight. And then soon enough Viceland straight up folded. So now there's a show I absolutely love, seeking new distribution in America, still greenlit for a third season as far as I know, but there's no certainty around any of it.
So, fuck it. I watched this second season over a series of links to Google Drive over the course of the last three months or so.
It's still very good! It's probably not as good as the first season, and maybe a little smaller in scope - which is weird, since so many shows tend to get bigger and bolder with time. But it's still very funny, very enjoyable, and very much a show that I couldn't push any harder, except for that nagging issue involving its complete lack of a legitimate platform at the moment. Gah!
Piracy, folks. Go for it.
