HBO's Avenue 5

[Southpaw]

Wedged right between The Outsider and Curb Your Enthusiasm.

Same creators as Veep. Just as hilarious.

I’ve heard this is not good.

I watched the first 3 episodes but then decided to bail. Some HILARIOUS parts, but as a whole it just wasn’t good enough to keep me onboard.

Things might be bad onboard the Avenue 5, where Karen (played by Rebecca Front) accidentally extended the journey's length to eight years in Episode 9, but the news is much better for fans of the HBO comedy. In February, the network renewed Avenue 5 for Season 2, which has a release date expected in early 2021.

I thought it started off pretty bad but it’s been hilarious in later episodes.

I just gave it a shot and finished binging. Incredibly unfunny, although there were finally a few laughs in the finale.

So not very good. Hugh Laurie is great but Josh Gad is HORRIBLE.

biggest disappointment of the year for me. massive Armando Iannuci fan, but this went over like a lead bomb.

I always likened Iannuci to smart satire while being incredibly funny. This was none of those things.

nope. It was painful.

I hear his new movie is pretty good though. Excited to see that when it comes to streaming. Death Of Stalin is one of the most brutally funny movies I’ve ever seen.
