We live in a really fucked up world. Paramount and Apple are spending a shit ton of money to put Harrison Ford and Kurt Russell in pure slop streaming television instead pooling resources together to make an amazing original adventure movie about old badasses going on an adventure. The world sucks.
3. Season 2: Bill Lawrence + Ted Lasso + Judd Apatow = Vile
Season 1 started off promising and then ended up in a really bad place. Season 2 decided to start off in that bad place and then decided to just marinate in there the entire time. You can really try to analyze the why of that – but ultimately none of that really matters. The show decided to be primarily about this group of adults hanging out, being messy, and doing bits. Harrison Ford deserves better, but that’s okay – I will continue to drink that garbage.
2. Season 3: Chapter Closed
I did not like Cougartown, and I do not like Cougartown 2. Harrison Ford really trying in this piece of shit is insane but what can you do. It is notable that the show seemed to want to bring a lot of arcs to close here without actually ending the show. Should I use this as an excuse to stop watching? Probably. Will I? To be determined.
1. Season 1: From Interesting to Meh
Harrison Ford is one of the biggest movie stars in the world. Him returning to “television” signals that the world is coming to ruin. Regardless, I want to watch Harrison Ford in stuff designed for adults and beggars cannot be choosers. This show started very promising as it was about awful people doing antics and not getting any better as human beings. Sure, they all talk like they are in therapy – one of the worst developments in modern television – but at least they are all therapists so of course they talk like that. Then it became Cougartown 2. Which, fine. It’s good background noise while you are trying to get through the treadmill.
