I find Mike Myers incredibly unfunny. And what’s worse is, HE thinks everything he does is pulverizingly funny. The disconnect is Grand Canyon-wide.
He’s had enough flops like THE LOVE GURU that we’ve been mercifully spared Mike Myers for the last few years.
But now comes word that he’s making a new Netflix “comedy” series. As if that wasn’t enough to make me almost cancel my subscription, he plays seven parts.
“NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!”
So we get seven un-funny cartoonish characters probably in ridiculous make-up. Gallagher is more subtle.
I think back to the plot of THE PRODUCERS when they were intentionally trying to make the worst musical ever so the show would flop and investors would be be screwed. Thus “Springtime for Hitler.” In that case it backfired. With this project they’re taking no chances.
Because to ensure this show will be unfunny they’ve now hired Ken Jeong to be in it. Why not just give Mike Pence a stand-up comedy special?
Hopefully, this is like the Mister Mxyzptlk storyline in Superman where every six months he appears and Superman has to get rid of him. This new sitcom could be another LOVE GURU and Mike Myerszptlk goes away for six more years. One can only hope.
