It reminds me of the actors in Tim and Eric’s projects

It was nice to see the shirt salesman make another appearance. What an odd fellow.

It took me a couple episodes to really latch on to what the show was doing. It also helps that the show has a lot more going for it than just the comedy

Shout out to Rhode Island getting mentioned in the finale (sort of).
This show’s weirdness just getting layer upon layer deeper until the final moment of the season is just A+-level commitment to a bit that I can’t get enough of.

I mean, rank the finale reveals:
- Spoiler: show
- 1. There are apparently vampires in this world?
2. Amanda has telekinetic powers and masterminded the chair breaking as payback for Ron throwing a hot dog down her shirt in high school.
3 LDP can really sing!
4. Mike is, in fact, a creep and not some sort of harmless ne’er do well.

Also I’m glad Mike learned a lesson from A Christmas Carol XXX.

I just want to re-highlight this. It's really true. Mike, obviously, holy shit. The shirt salesman was also stupendous. But, like, in a way that I don't know if I've ever seen before. I'm being hyperbolic, but he was just operating on a whole nother level. Just phenomenal.
I recognize the daughter's fiance from Instagram, she's very funny on there and funny on the show, too.
Jim Downey, obviously
I might just rewatch the dang thing again right now

What a finale. What in the hell. Talk about unhinged! I shudder to think what season 2 might be like.
The biggest laugh, besides when it cut to credits, was when he was posing with the dog for instagram.
