Wow. This was an experience. I don't think I've ever had the ability to say that I was blown away by how bad a show could be. Consider me Blown Away.
It was so bad, that watching it was SO MUCH FUN! The story was so outlandish that it couldn't help but induce confused fits of giggles. In fairness, I can't fully blame the actors. I'm sure they did the best they could with the script and direction they were given. I can blame them, however, for accepting to do the role in the first place. Little did they know that the title of the series might end up being a somber prediction for the rest of their careers.
My advice for anyone wanting to watch would be: Make a BINGO card before you start. Include squares like, 'Overly aggressive facial reaction', 'Whaaaaaaaaaaaat?', 'A Scene that was pointless', 'Yeah, right', 'Crazy Tacky Shirt', 'Irrational reaction to the situation' and so forth. Resist the urge to make it a drinking game, as alcohol poisoning puts a damper on a fun evening.
I've tried not to include any spoilers, but I MUST comment on the drowning scene. Never have I ever seen a drowning person actively try to dip his head under the water. Come on, man. Do better. And to go from gasping and crying for help to immediately dead and floating to quickly sinking in the span of 3 seconds may have been just a tad too quick considering the importance of the scene when it came to the whole store. If I had sneezed at the same moment, I would have missed the whole thing.
All in all, it's worth the watch. Do it with good friends and have yourself a laugh.
