I'm not sure why every other commercial on CNN is for this Crave TV show, or why they only did one version of one commercial when they knew they'd be airing it a billion times, or why they chose the jokes they used in it because they weren't very funny. But after about the 794 millionth time I said "OK FINE I'LL WATCH IT!"
So then we watched it, and it was terrible. Basically what you'd expect if you gave a women's improv class a camera and said "yeah make something about a cult" (by this I don't mean the problem has anything to do with gender, it's just that 90+% of the cast is women, you could obviously also get a terrible show from a men's improv class).
Way too many drug and crazy person jokes, way too many cult jokes that have been done before and done better. The best jokes in fact are in the commercials which says a lot about what to expect from this show. We spent much more time rolling our eyes and groaning than laughing or even just smiling at any of the bad jokes in this.
2 stars, I've seen worse Canadian TV.
