I really enjoy the silly humour of this show. The Toronto mans' accent and various BIPOC perspectives are spot on without sacrificing the funny. It takes some scathing shots at race and politics but wraps it in absurd comedy and I love that. I'm pretty sure I've seen all the episodes and and the production value just kept getting better and the storylines funnier. Each Tallboy brings something hilarious to the table and I can't believe they haven't been tapped for more. Also, it's rare to see a show with only minorities as the leads. If you like dumb humour, sketch comedy, and inclusivity then Tallboyz is for you.
A complete waste of the 16 mins I managed to endure before having to turn it off except for the lesson learned. The people who gave this show the green light have no business bwing in the "comedy" business.
These guys are genuinely funny, and their best skits are the ones where they just let their imaginations run wild. But so many of their skits just feel as if they were written by some downtown-Toronto white person (or white-adjacent person) obsessed with ticking boxes to demonstrate "wokeness." It gets to the point where you sit there, already cringing, just waiting for the diatribe about some intense social issue. I watch comedy to escape this kind of thing, not to be slammed with it over and over. And I'm an immigrant! Their perspective is just way too big-city-university-white-person-focused. They don't make any jokes for real immigrants. They never explore any of the successful immigrant communities. It's the most misleading and ridiculous portrayal of Canada. But it's a shame because these guys really are funny, and we really were lacking in diversity for comedy sketch shows, so I welcomed this when it came on. I think they should be brave and just rely on their humour, not ticking boxes.
This show is so cute and lovely, and of course, funny - it's one of my favs. I also appreciate more sketch comedy coming to out, the more the merrier.
It's as if they made this show for a bunch of 12 year old boys!
I got to 13 seconds and I just couldn't watch it anymore. Ninja style cries that remind me of Jackie Chan. I mean I turned to my mom and I said "Okay, that's enough of that!"! I'd rather watch a new season of Schitt's Creek because that show's creators are funny.
My mom didn't like it either so what does that say about the writers of this show?
