Recommendation: Legit (2013 - 2014) creators: Jim Jefferies, Peter O'Fallon cast: Jim Jefferies, Dan Bakkedahl, DJ Qualls, Mindy Sterling, John Ratzenberger Stand Up Comedians doing sitcoms are a wonderfully dramatic mix of hits ("Seinfeld" and "Everybody Loves Raymond") and misses ("Mulaney" and "Chicken Soup"). I went into "Legit" not really knowing what to expect, but ended up enjoying it way more than I thought I would. Jefferies is not a good actor, but he had created the show around his usual persona and so he blends in perfectly among other actors, who are doing a great job and makes the show incredibly funny, and honestly sadder than it deserves to be. The ending is still seared in my head, and not for the happiest reasons. The show isn't 100% perfect and not every joke lands. There are jokes that don't work, and continuity that changes from episode to episode, which would be okay in the show if they didn't try to reference back. But the good really outweighs it. I laughed my ass off more times than I care to count, and by the end I really cared about the characters and their emotions (which is harder for a sitcom to achieve). Even small character like Walter managed to stick in my memory and make me feel something for them. Oh also, like any good sitcom it had moments where I yelled out in anger at the screen due to the actions of the characters. I really enjoyed my time watching the show and getting involved in the lives of fictional Jim Jefferies and his surroundings, and I recommend you do too. It's two seasons (26 episodes in total), and has enough great moments to put it firmly in the "hit" column of Stand Up Comedian sitcoms. Well done Mr. Jefferies, I honestly was surprised and delighted by your creation. Oh, it also has a small part for George Lazenby, the thinking man's James Bond 😂. #legit #jimjefferies #peterofallon #danbakkedahl #djqualls #mindysterling #johnratzenberger #comedy #sitcom #tvshow #standup #standupcomedy #ak88recommendation https://www.instagram.com/p/CWvxiuPNO56/?utm_medium=tumblr
