This show was rated poorly then thousands of reviews showed up simultaneously, by people who coincidentally had never rated anything before, giving it 10's and 9's. Wow what a coincidence!
This show is not terrible. Anything with three comedy legends in it like O'Hara, Levy (the older one not the talent starved son) and Chris Elliott has to be good. Whoever plays the sister is also charming and can be funny as well. But the writing is awful, based on nothing but tons of gay stereotype jokes, fish out of water rich jokes and above all else the scatological dad jokes that come with literally creating a show called "Schitt's Creek."
The show doesn't even make sense. They're rich, their accountant stole their money, but... they still own a town? Well, you can't own a government so that means they own the land, which means they can either collect rent from a bunch of people and businesses, or they can sell it and move somewhere decent. I guess they decided just to ignore those basic facts so they could keep their "hilarious" premise of characters owning a town called Poop Something.
Almost no thought was put into this show. The characters are one dimensional and the jokes are predictable and very bad. Oddly they are trying very hard to be woke but the show is full of stereotypes, effeminate gay bashing and undercutting feminism.
The bottom line? The show's real stars do what they can, but the writing is so far beneath them, the premise is flawed and cheap, and for a comedy it's simply not funny! All the fake reviews in the world won't change that.
