This show feels as if it has inspired Barry, my favourite show that is currently airing. Breakneck pacing, stress and anxiety inducing scenario, fleshed out characters, really sad outcomes, some good drama and really funny all in one. This show's writing is very peculiar in many ways, very quirky in nature but works to its advantage in producing comedy in addition to making the characters more endearing without breaking the gravity or reality of the show which is very impressive. There's a lot of cool cinematography in here from the various perspective shots, slow push-ins and long takes, the latter 2 of which are extremely effective in replicating the sense of pressure being piled on, anxiety and stress and really getting you in the head inside of our main character. The acting in this show is excellent, you can feel how depressed, sad and done John is with everything, everyone else's concern and you just get a real sense of character from each performance. I absolutely love the way this show is edited. They thought ahead so much with this show and you can tell with how it plays with chronology and sequence to the point where you have no idea what the next scene is going to be sometimes. It just keeps adding and adding as the show goes along and you just get the feeling of if it can go wrong, it will go wrong and while it can be really funny, it can also be really harrowing and stressful. Just a masterclass of tone balancing with its drama and comedy. It also has some great action in it to top it all off. A very one of a kind show and one that is criminally underwatched and underrated, give it a watch if you haven't. P.S. couldn't get out of my head that John looked like Alexander Skarsgard and Lawrence looked like Jermaine Clement. They look so similar to them.
