Crashing (2017–2019)
7/10
It's a Great Show, But...
2 December 2022
Look, I love this show and I love Pete, he's a hilarious comedian in real life and he also has some hilarious stuff on YouTube from his days on The Pete Holmes show but I feel like this show would have benefited from a little more humanity.

The problem I have with this show is the cringy, unrealistically harsh interactions every single person on this show has to Pete just existing.

Everytime someone comes into contact with this kind, funny, gentle giant of a man they immediately have an "eff you, get away from me" attitude, even his friends eventually appear annoyed by him just because he's there, it gets annoying and cringy and it's fairly unrealistic in terms of how most humans interact with each other.

The second issue I have with this show is how many jokes they try to cram into literally every single scene... I am aware this is a show about comedians but it interrupts the flow of conversation a lot and it gets distracting.

Other than that I've watched through the series 4 times and it never gets old! I would highly recommend it and also checking out everything else Pete Holmes has done, he is a very funny dude and deserves more accolades than he gets.
