Another week in the bag! Well done all. Today’s game is simple… summarise a tv show in one sentence and other people guess it. Have fun!

Haha fair enough, it felt like it could have been a dark twist.
Kevin Can Go F**k Himself is really interesting though, and I definitely recommend it. In many ways a dark satire and criticism of King of Queens specifically, but also all of those “goofy” sitcoms with a lead who’s an incompetent funny guy.
I don’t want to reveal too much though because I think it’s best to experience it without prep, but please be warned it can be jarring.
Kevin Can F** Himself* is like King of Queens meets Death Note and I love it.

Basically Carrie and Roseanne teaming up to become a crime duo is something I never knew I needed.
Do you need to know King of Queens before watching the other one?
If you’re passingly familiar with the tropes present in any husband-and-wife sitcom and enjoy dark comedies, I think you’ll appreciate the genre deconstruction without any confusion.
That being said, the show bears a strong resemblance to King of Queens, its spiritual successor Kevin Can Wait, and to a lesser extent Roseanne, containing a handful of references to those shows. Having watched all those made me enjoy this show even more.
