I used to love this show. Now I’m just sad
I had been looking forward to this show coming back for the longest time, I had loved the earlier seasons but, while there were some good episodes, the one with the flashback to the Funn’s childhood was just hateful. To act as though it’s funny for two children to be that mistreated by badly behaving adults who blamed the children for the adults own issues was really not okay. What makes it worse is that it isn’t hard to view either of those characters as being on the autism spectrum and, as someone who is and was mistreated by adults for being ‘different’, well, I sure didn’t find it funny to say the least. If that episode didn’t exist I still haven’t loved every one of the new episodes but there were some very very good ones. But, as that episode does exist and they’ve made it clear what I might end up hearing again, I won’t be listening to any more. And frankly, I’m just sad about it. I really loved this show.

Great production with wonderful experienced actors. Very funny writing and a super-fun ending of season 1. Hoping for another season to come! Highly recommended.
