Laugh Out Loud Fun!

I’ve only listened to the first episode, but I’ve immensely enjoyed the story and ALL the characters, thus far. I can’t wait to see how crazy things get on the retreat.

Cringy

A “story” made of adds. I was exited by the cast but after the first episode I was underwhelmed. The show is a mix of adds for swell, Toyota, and other brands that clearly paid off this production. It detracts from the storyline. The writing feels like they gathered a many promotions as they could and just wrote the script hoping from one promotion to the next.

Not funny. unless you like incest and other inappropriate jokes

The writers for this should be fired it's awful. 6 minutes in I had to turn it to something else. Jokes about having sex with animals or having sex with your family are just not funny.

Wanda Sykes delivers a lazy performance that brings down a pretty decent story and Colin Jost's really good performance.

Wanda Sykes sounds like a grandma reading her grandkids a bedtime story after taking her bedtime pills. She's truly terrible. Thankfully she's only present in the beginning and very end. The rest of the cast is good and Colin is polished and funny. It's too bad Wanda sounds like she didn't bother studying the script prior to her read. She's really bad.

Fruktansvärt dålig och liksom desperat

Om man inte har något att säga, helt saknar talang och till varje pris ändå bestämt sig för att skriva en komedi, då kan det bli såhär. Detta borde aldrig ha fått publiceras, Audible borde av ren självbevarelsedrift och självrespekt ha någon slags lägsta nivå på vad de släpper.
