Close Enough (TV Series) Men Rock!/Secret Horse (2021) User Reviews

Is this fun?

[minarikjaroslav · 13 June 2021]

After watching "Close enough/Men rock" I decided to express what I felt. I don´t understand, why in the world of Me too, Black lives matters, fluid genders and avariety of powerful movements fighting for unbiased society is this still possible. Call some country "Cromania"? Should be Romania or what? Soviet like uniforms? The worst eastern Europian accents you can think of? I live in the middle of the Europe and have friends from the States and also a few in Romania. They don´t have these accents and don´t wear uniforms, even their toilets are clean.

Tell me why some stereotypes are unacceptable while eastern-europian stereotypical characters are still common among many series from US productions? I feel deeply offended. We have our problems, we we do not live like this!

Cheers.

This episode is a feminist's fantasy... put into a cartoon

I know that this cartoon is supposed to be a comedy, a unrealistic satirical joke about characters and people. But even through all the dumb jokes there has to be a core of sincerity: like family values.

This was the first episode where not only did I feel extremely preached to but it also felt like an angry feminist screaming propaganda in your ear with a loudspeaker.

I am not gonna lie: first time I saw this episode, I was done with the show and I had completely forgotten most of the details. Then I came back maybe a year later thinking: "well it wasn't that bad." I read the description and I said: "It was that bad... it was so bad... " all those emotions surfaced.

It felt like Quintel greenlit some kind of fanfiction by an angry activist in his writing room. (I just saw the writers and 2 of them wrote episodes of Velma and She-Hulk). Oh my god, Quintel, I feel sorry for you dude, you literally left two show-killaz in your writing room and they completely destroyed it.

How did the show benefit from this show of feminist power? Well... it got cancelled.

Edit: I just checked the votes and saw that the country that voted this episode the most is... not what you expect. Anyone who thinks that entertainment is not a tool for social engineering... they are living in Cromania...
