“Think of this as a conversation to get to the truth… I wanna get to the real stuff!” Ohhh this looks wild. Netflix has revealed an official trailer for a brand new sketch comedy series called Bad Thoughts, arriving to watch starting May. “Step into Tom Segura’s twisted world, where he spins his signature dark humor into wildly unexpected and laugh-out-loud tales – and lets his intrusive thoughts win.” This looks properly cathartic and seriously F’d up! As it should! This showcases a series of vignettes where the stories unfold in a in a hilariously disturbing way. It’s also described as “Black Mirror by way of David Cronenberg, if he were tripping on mushrooms.” Featuring everything from prosthetic genitals, conjoined twins, deepfakes — and one horrified Peruvian mom. And lots of guest stars, of course. “The project began as a few short films the stand-up comic wrote between tour stops. He pitched them to director Rami Hachache, and after an intense 11-day shoot, they had enough material to convince Netflix to order a full series.” This reminds me of how much I miss “Key & Peele”, and how brilliant they were creating sketch comedy segments like these. Enjoy.
