Mini-review:
Cunk on Earth is exactly what I needed this week. Lately I've been feeling overwhelmed by work and I needed something to get my mind off things and help me relax and laugh, and that's exactly what this show did. It's just completely hilarious. The jokes come one after another and they hit way more often than they miss. It manages to throw some biting social commentary here and there in a way that felt perfect, too. And that recurring gag made laugh out loud every single time, it's genius. I spent the episodes waiting for it to come up Also, Diane Morgan is an absolute master at deadpan humor, her delivery is pitch perfect throughout the five episodes. Her Philomena Cunk becomes an iconic character from the very first episode. I would honestly to love to see more Cunk takes on other stuff in the future, so I really hope they make sequels.
