Bonding2019

Everything is fleet and light, nothing outstays its welcome and the audience is left to be swayed – should they need it – towards the message of tolerance by the joyful insouciance of the whole thing, rather than any heavy-handed lectures or rigid point of view.

The first season was interesting enough but had many of the floors that disrupt season two. It rushes through it's plots leaving a disorganized mess in it's wake, characters don't form fully and conflicts don't feel natural. The male lead is a horrendous actor ,doug is always about to poo or in the midst of pooing. It's unfortunate because somewhere in this premise is a great show it's just unfortunately lost in a mess of bad casting, screen writing and direction. It's embarrassing how in this comedy his stand ups bomb. It's a concerning level of unfunny.

Doyle isn't interested in exploring the B.D.S.M. world or Pete and Tiff's knotty friendship (of course they have an abortive hookup in their past) with any complexity. He instead privileges his own point of view, via Pete, as the sassy outsider who's above it all. Though Scannell is talented enough, at least, to make the character's bug-eyed tsk-tsk-iness tolerable.
