DVD Reviews of The Andy Milonakis Show - The Complete First Season
DVD Review: I show that may be under the surface
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this show for reasons that most people wouldn't and probably can't relate to the average viewer. So beware. The show is a complete stream of consciousness start to finish. As in, welcome to someone else's brain without the explanation of why he has chosen to show you the things you're seeing. Or even more deeply he is not in control of what you see, good, bad or ugly. So what do you see? Well many would say the first few episodes are the best and I would agree completely but I will get back to that. What you see is repeated slightly different instances of teen angst; most noticeable is the theme of feeling like you don't fit in, suburban kids that love rap music, self-doubting. But all disguised as complete insanity. So much so that people claim the show is about nothing when I feel like that couldn't be further from the truth! For me the most insightful sketch is about 2 jars of peanut butter, one is in love with the jelly, the other which is "chunky" is left out with no one to love him. Andy tells the chunky peanut butter that he knows someone that can teach the pb how to dance, and introduces him to salsa. They fall in love and are happy together. Now for some people they have just witness complete and total absurdity. For me he is acting out his angst, he is the chunky peanut butter than no one will love. Why? Well because as we may or may not all know he is in fact 30 years old. He has a medical condition that prohibits him from growing tall or as society has taught him, growing up. This is his way of fitting in, to act like a 5th grader. But does he think he is funny, frankly no, and some of his sketches say that specifically, notable the one where he is doing pancake face and Larry comes in borrows something and tells him pancake face is stupid, and that's the whole sketch. Another good sketch has Andy go into a bird shop where he and an employee speak in a bird language to each other, then a third man comes in and speaks bird and is accosted by a cooked chicken, then to spike the point he goes outside and says "I just wanted to fit in" and fly's away. Andy just wants to fit in but is stuck at the very age when that is impossible, to big to be a little kid, and not old enough to be an adult. A great show to read into for sure but some of the bad points are as follows. His ideals that flourish in the first few episodes that I already pointed out, seem to diminish quickly and it seems to me like the other writers or producers only saw the absurdist comedy and attempted to recreate it but left out the deeper meaning, possibly not knowing they existed, at least at a subconscious level. Another bad spot is we see some of the same sketches redone, like the ones with rappers are always coming in and out of the TV, while I suppose one could argue it's relating the fact that TV is your connection to famous people, I'm a little hesitant to want to watch it over and over and over. It is possible the show said all it really had to say in the first few episodes. Also Andy has made the bad choice of playing a character that is himself younger than he really is, while he may be a "weird dude", he has a more mature side and he is almost insuring he will not work much after the show. I wish him the best of luck. I love the episodes that are good and I think the show appeals to a young crowd mostly because they can relate to teen angst and absurd comedy, and the love of rap music. I most certainly endorse the buying of this season which I have done already. If anyone would like to discuss the show feel free to email me at BanditT76@aol.com
