Obliterated doesn't try anything it's not. It knows exactly what it is and that's an action comedy that spoofs those kind of films. My brother and I just finished it watching a t and we both said that we hoped they do another season. We grew up as kids in the 80's and 90's so we know all about the films this show was making fun of. Besides being a funny action series, it's also a pretty solid "get the terrorist" series. I read somewhere that it compares the counterterrorism thriller of 24. I can definitely see that. The entire cast is great here, especially Nick Zano. He's so good in this, I hope this leads to bigger things for him. He's definitely the stand out here. I liked him in Legends of Tomorrow but he is perfect for this role. He steals every scene he's in. Also, Shelley Hennig is as beautiful as ever and does a good job with Zano leading this rag tag group.

I had no idea what to expect when I started watching Obliterated, the reviews were mostly positive and I thought the trailer looked pretty good so I thought I'd give it a chance. I'm so glad I did. This show had me laughing out loud at least a few times per episode. I had fun the entire time I was watching. Even though it makes fun of movies from the Sly/Arnold era, it also pays respect to them too. This show isn't going to win any awards but if you can just turn your brain off for little while I promise you that you'll have fun watching this. I actually binged all 8 episodes in a couple days. It's funny with plenty of action and twists to hold your interest every episode.

Outrageous, gratuitous nudity, violence and chaos. And I love it for that. Reminds me a lot of Blue Mountain State and the American Pie movies where things aren't supposed to make sense or provide deeper meaning, they're just fun for fun's sake. Honestly this show was a breath of pure entertainment fresh air. I loved the characters cartwheeling and crashing through each scene, and enjoyed turning off my brain and just letting it all wash over me. Choosing to do it as a series instead of a movie was a brilliant idea, crammed into a movie it would have felt washed out and done a million times before. Letting it all roll out over 8 episodes lets the show and characters really establish themselves. I hope more series like this get made!

This show is horrible. I love it.

An updated, contemporary take on old school early-'80s action television.

Does it make sense? No.

Are there plot holes? Absolutely.

Is it riddled with tropes? All of the tropes.

Sophomoric humor? So much!

Is there any hint of realism or accuracy? None-whatsoever.

This kind of craft seems to be a lost art. Back in the day, bad but enjoyable, entertaining television was intentionally created to help you relax at the end of a hard day.

So much TV is unintentionally bad. But Obliterated revels in its unabashed badness. It is perfect in its execution.

Just remember that the goal here is to unwind and experience guilty chuckles and eye rolls after a big TV dinner.

In this endeavor, Obliterated exceeds all expectations. Each episode is non-stop fun.

Go buy an ugly fabric recliner at an estate sale and enjoy this modern take on old classics.

An American cross-services military team has been assembled to track down a loose nuke possibly in Las Vegas. Ava Winters (Shelley Hennig) is the intelligence leader. Chad (Nick Zano), Trunk (Terrence Terrell), and Angela Gomez (Paola Lázaro) are the muscle. Haggerty (C. Thomas Howell) is the unusual bomb tech. Maya Lerner (Kimi Rutledge) is the shy computer tech. Paul Yung (Eugene Kim) is the Air Force pilot and protective father.

It's a Netflix action thriller comedy series. It's rated a little lower than most and there is a reason. It's not a series to be taken seriously. It's outrageous and silly and there are so many d's. It's a ridiculous time and it is a bit uneven. This very much depends on the viewer's mindset.
