It looks craptacular.

THIS sort of thing COULD have been done well in the mid-70s by the talent at National Lampoon Magazine/Radio Hour.

But then SNL took staff and talent.

And then Animal House’s success drained off even more of the talent.

And now things that were brought into the mainstream BY NatLamp are the core of American comedy AND they are “cringy” and “triggering”.

So WTF do this now at Netflix with computer slideshow animation and dumb twerking dudes?

When Fireside Theater knocked the US in the 1960s, they managed to be funny and creative with just audio. These people, with all the high-tech enhancements available, couldn’t even keep my interest.
