Yes, Beef House is awful, because it's supposed to be awful. It's purposefully over the top satire aimed at how stupid and pedantic the average American sitcom tends to be. Over the top characters and impossibly illogical story lines and yet they still find willing viewers. If you only came away with how terrible it is, you missed the message.
Listen, I can't blame people who hate this show. Watching it expecting meaningful substance will be disappointed. The show absurd and monumentally stupid. Even from a parody standpoint........it's absurd and monumentally stupid. However, this creates a situation where it's funny deconstructed to it's simplest form. Tim and Eric COULD of made a more structured parody of a sitcom and it would of been fine. Problem is we have seen parody's like this made over and over again. This show is made with typical family sitcom tropes but with little regard to making something that would make a mass audience happy. If it does please a mass audience then fine. It seems to me though that they make these episodes thinking "this would be hilarious and SO TRUE to family sitcoms!" but fail to ask anybody else if it's funny because they are going to make it anyway. In the end, all this makes a good show that this world needs more of.

Once again Tim & Eric deliver! The only negative is the short 1st season. NEED MORE BEEF BOYS!
Beef house is an excellent and hilarious parody that plays to my sense of humor very very well. I've seen a lot of bad sitcoms in my life and this has pinpointed every stupid cliche they contain. The side characters really make the show. Like Tennessee, love that guy.
This is not for everyone, but it certainly works for me

I honestly can't tell if this show is good or not but it's impossible to stop watching. It's so surreal and strange, and has consistently made me laugh without fail every episode.
This is classic Tim and Eric.
Absurd and hilarious spoof on the Seinfeld type.
Season 1 is a bit short tho could have used 10 episodes.

An amusing parody of 1980s and 1990s American sitcoms full of adult humour and in one episode, literal toilet humour. If you enjoyed Tim and Eric: Awesome Show Great Job you will enjoy this. It's a shame that there's only 1 series as the series finale ends on a cliffhanger and leaves it open for a 2nd series.

Can't believe I'm saying this but I don't really understand this show. I'm a huge fan of their other work. It's like a parody of a sitcom, but it doesn't go too far into actually being a parody of have any of their signature surrealism, so it isn't funny in that sense, but because it's not trying to be a legitimate sitcom it also isn't funny in that sense. It's just in this middle ground of...nothing. There's occasional moments where it almost commits to the joke and then it backs off. Maybe it's too subtle for me idk.

You can't really go into Beef House expecting the same kind of gags as Awesome Show, nor can you go into it expecting a full on satire of Full House. It is somewhere in between, but I think in a creative way. A lot of the set ups are very traditionally sitcom, for example in the second episode, Tim wants to get with the hot neighbor so the Beef Boys help him out with an elaborate scheme. I feel like I've seen this exact story line a hundred times, but when Beef House does it, it at the same times points out he absurdity of it. The solutions that the Beef Boys come up with are extreme and very Tim and Eric, but don't really feel forced except for that "everything if forced" sitcom way. Maybe I've watched to much television or I'm reading into subtext that isn't there, but I've had a pretty good time watching the few episodes that have been released so far and I think it has the potential to be just as good as Bedtime Stories (season 2) turned out.

I'm a huge fan of their other material but T&E do have a tendency to phone it in at times, and this series seems like one of those times. It's weird for the sake of being weird without pushing a point, and when you compare it to what I would consider low-key satire masterpieces like "The Trial" or "On Cinema at the Cinema" or whatever, it's just hard to understand why this was even made. At the end of the day it feels disrespectful to the audience and the fans to spend so little time making something that is just a repeating non-sequitur meme that you expect fans to repeat over and over again assuming that they "get it". Tim and Eric are funny, they've pushed the envelope in humor many times, but that doesn't mean anything with Tim and Eric in it automatically becomes funny, or that you should, as a fan, internalize it as yourself "not getting it".
Probably some of the best comedy of the duo. Highly recommend the series. Wish they made more episodes and make them longer
Wow! Beef House is a feast for all the senses. It's got the great actors from T&EASGJ and a couple of new faces. The Easter episode, the pilot, is great and includes some war history, A fashion show and some other good old fashioned Easter traditions.

Cringey. I hate to see artists decline.
Reminiscing about MDE. Imagine what could have been with a bit of funding and support....

2nd episode gave me the hardest laugh I've had in a year. I've probably watched it four times. Episode 3 was not far behind.
Tim and Eric are in prime form with this new medium. If episode one didn't hook you, you have to at least give it a chance through 2. If you don't, I can personally assure you there will be big consequences.

I truly don't get Beef House, and this is coming from a longtime Tim and Eric fan. I didn't laugh once, their attempt to parody sitcoms falls flat on its face.
Where's the beef? As inovative as it is heartwarming, everyone could use a little beef.Watch more Beef House!

Not that it's not funny per say, but the humour is a bit too immature for my liking.
Beef House is parody of classic sitcoms, done in classic Tim and Eric style. It stars regulars from their Hit TV Show™ 'Awesome Show, Great Job'. If you are fan of Tim and Eric's absurdist comedy then you'll love Beef House.
