Everyone Else Burns (2023)
Very funny and moving comedy about religion
6 February 2023 - 5 out of 7 users found this review helpful.
I absolutely loved this new sitcom. It's written supremely well and really envelops the viewer in the characters' inner lives. Particularly successful is the ensemble dynamic: every character's relationship with each other is clear and mined for comedic potential.
The world of the religious community affords a great opportunity for big comic set pieces, like the baptism in the final episode or the sexual education presentation in the third episode. The gags are sharp and the performances are nuanced: a personal highlight was the moving relationship between Rachel and Joshua when he gets her a birthday cake. Looking forward to S2.
