The Pentaverate

It's a Mike Myers vehicle for his brand of silly comedy. You know exactly what you are getting before the starting credits roll. If you don't like his previous stuff you aren't going to like this. Pointless complaining about holes in the story line, crass humour or down right rude bits as that what he's done since the 90s. It was fun.

All the low scores are part of a conspiracy to stop people from watching and learning the truth .

This show works in so many levels most people won't understand it may require multiple views and a deep dive into the esoteric .

Comedy and entertainment can be just stupid and wild. It can still make you laugh and it can still be fun. This is and I loved it. Mike Myers is great and I am glad he has made something again. Mike Myers has always made us have some fun quick laughs.

I spent the first few episodes thinking... this style of comedy was done and finished.

Yet I kept watching.....

By the midpoint, I was chuckling away at silly "old school" toilet humour.

I remembered how not to take everything so seriously.

By the end, I was laughing out loud at the randomness of cliches and stupid jokes while noticing that Mike Myers sparked the way for the Coen Brothers and Wes Anderson.

To be fair, it's not brilliant, but hey, neither are you.

Into the third episode and it's a bit hit and miss if I'm being honest. But, as an Austin Powers fan I'm going to keep watching as when it is funny, it is actually very sharp and clever.

The Netflix censored pool hall scene was sheer genius. I can't even begin to imagine how the dialogue was so cleverly pieced together to make the joke work the way it did.

Also, did anyone else get "The Prisoner" vibes or was it just me?
