Some days ago i posted a YouTube video of a “theater” play where everything just goes sideways and it was side-splitting funny. What i did not know is that it is a series shown in Amazon and all the same vein: The Goes Wrong Show
Imagine a mediocre theater troupe with little budget and almost zero talent, props bought and designed at the Dollar Store and a stage hand that DNGAF. Now imagine the kind of epic theatrical mudslide that is coming. That is pretty much the essence of the show.
Usually brits are less hit and a lot miss with slapstick and physical comedy, but this show does it great. Some of the gags you will see coming and still make you laugh because of the sheer absurdity,
That’s it, save it for the Post Thanksgiving celebration while you wait for all The Mandalorian episodes to be released so you can binge.
It’s on Amazon? Prime is the only streaming service I have. This will be good to watch as I slowly go insane this winter while everything worth doing is shut down here in NY.
Oh yeah, Amazon Prime Video… have fun!
British comedians Rik Mayall and Adrian Edmonson did a stage show carrying on a couple characters they created for TV. Apparently a section was purposefully written so it appeared they went off script — with variations for each town they played in.
This sounds weirdly like the classic ‘Noises Off’.
I love that movie! Noises Off is the collapse of the actors because of how their relationships change with each other. This is just everything coming apart 🙂
