Kevin Can F**k Himself (2021–2022)
3/10
Didn't hold my interest but liked the finale
8 July 2021
Warning: Spoilers
To those saying that people who give this a low rating don't get it, not true: I get it. I was intrigued when I read articles about the premise, but the first 2 episodes did nothing for me. I do think the lead seems like a good actress. I get that the sitcom sections are supposed to be annoying so that she wants to escape that life, but you can only purposely annoy your audience for so long, I suppose. Maybe if they make the sitcom sections much briefer now that the audience knows the premise, that might help. Or make them actually funny. Maybe the "sitcom" will have an arc that makes it interesting. And nothing in the dramatic sections aroused my interest. I might go back and watch more someday, and maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised; maybe there's a build coming I don't foresee. But right now I feel like watching it again is kind of like fulfilling a "school assignment" and I don't want to do it.

To reviewers saying that people who don't like it don't get it: Don't be so arrogant. Sometimes people just don't like what you do. And it builds up bad will toward the show when you do it.

EDITED TO ADD: I watched the series finale, which was good, so I watched the second season. It was better than the first few episodes, at least. Not great but better.

I totally loved that the new girlfriend in the series final episode was played by the killed-off first wife from Kevin Can Wait.
