Killing It (2022– )
8/10
A comedy about the futility of the American dream
6 March 2023
This is a show so clever, so over-the-top, so carefully cast that a viewer could be excused for missing the point. So here's the point: people some see as losers are strivers fighting to prove to us and themselves that the opportunity to achieve the American dream is real. They fight racism, cynicism, tribalism, jingoism, ignorance and plain evil to demonstrate that the road to success exists, even if it means working in a swamp. Craig Robinson plays the innocent believer working alongside an earnest immigrant and despite his cagey but jaded brother. A lot of the four-letter language that writers are wearing out, but a classic satire with an important message.
