Good to have it back. The targets this time are anyone involved with January 6th and content platforms acting as publishers. There's a peculiar home-made court run by Mandy Patinkin, which attracts Sarah Chalke (the most charismatic character in it). 'You can make a joke about anyone' day challenges political correctness in humour.
Episode One ends with a charming credits scene featuring cute animals.
Nyambi Nyambi is having a post-Covid hallucination featuring historical characters. Charmiane Bingwa, the new associate, makes a powerful connection quickly, Ugly Betty's Tony Plana.
I love the opening sequences but it's David Buckley's music that gives it that oomph - the choral shouts / screams give it an incredible power that always gets right under my skin. Some of his incidental / play out music is also great.
I hope that episode about the acceptability of the word 'niggardly' was a joke - if not, we're in deeper shit than I thought. Becomes increasingly silly e.g. episode in which wacky judge starts randomly designating parking areas and fines. Also this stuff about Christine Baranski being edged out of her own company for not being black is surely as racist as the other way round?
10 episodes. Ends on essentially a reenactment / criticism of January 6 in the mock court. Overall it felt a bit messy.
