I’ve heard a lot of high praise but it’s such a weird fucking show. It’s like as if Alex Jones made a TV show with all the cliche conspiracy theories.

I don’t know if I want to continue.

Kinda, but with the Seinfeld caveat that it's the source of all those cliches rather than a hack show that's just copying them all. It also takes the concept seriously and comes out the other end with decent politics, Alex Jones came later and is just abusing famous cliches to smuggle in his fascist ideology. Like seriously, he's an unbelievable hack and moron, 99% of shit he says is reworded movie quotes or plot points.

Obviously there's no accounting for taste and all that, but "idk I'm just not having fun" is unironically a better reason to dislike something than misunderstanding what it is.

Macbeth is overrated, it's just a bunch of famous quotes strung together
