Looking for some quality comedy entertainment to check out?
Who better to turn to for under-the-radar comedy recommendations than comedians?
Lauren Lapkus wants that to change.
I started watching it two years ago and became so addicted to it.
I love it so much but I have no one to talk to about it.
I grew up lovingFriendsso much.
It really made me appreciate him more as an actor.
Hes obviously so funny and talented onFriends, butEpisodesreally takes his range to a different territory.
I love a lot of British comedy.
It blends these worlds and it grows increasingly funnier as youre watching this disconnect between these worldviews and tones.
The stuff on TV in the U.K. is generally smarter and better because theres less of it.
There are fewer actual British networks that are churning out shows and filling the air.
Everything is better because theres more quality control.
And he really takes it on the chin inEpisodes.Yeah, he really does!
At the same time, everyone kind of hates him.
That feels really relatable.
I have no interest in leaving the business.
I love watching Sean and Beverlys relationship develop with him in the ways that he screws them over.
I love the idea of her actually sleeping with him.
Hes so dumb on the show and shes so smart.
This should never happen!
But of course it does, and it blows up in all their faces.
I think her performance is so wonderful.
I honestly feel like nobody knows what this show is.
She goes on so many journeys on this entire series and you really feel for her.
Do you rely on that level of self-awareness when improvising or creating new characters?I definitely do.
Im sure someone whos worked in this industry as long as him has experienced that a lot.
Its a brave thing to take on a role like this.
I dont even know where the line really ends between the character and the real Matt LeBlanc.
I was like, Oh, yeah!
I didnt know that was what you would want.
The writing on this show is so funny.
When were recording it, were often just having such a great time.
Im also proud of the final product and Im proud of the messages that it gives.
I think that its wholesome without being saccharine.
Every episode has something for kids and adults to take away from it.
The show figures out how to handle them in a fun way.
Theres nothing done in a boring way on Harvey Street.
We need more things that are promoting kindness and doing it in a cool way.
The animation is so fresh and interesting.
I think people will get a kick out of it.
