Peacock (2022– )
8/10
I was surprised by how much I liked this

I think cringe comedy is getting a little stale but this was done well enough and the character was likable enough that it didn't matter.

A unique gym setting made for some funny situational jokes and the guy's struggle of growing old and looking for companionship is universal so it was relatable.

Many shows I've seen lately are filled with completely outlandish, unrelatable characters acting completely over the top absurd. So it starts to feel like watching a bunch of cartoon characters in increasingly contrived situations. This avoided that by grounding it reality, but still allowing for some silliness.

I recommend it...I hope there are some more episodes because it was kind of short to be honest.
