Obliterated (2023)

Watchseries; This was just excellent. Don't take it seriously. Don't question the laws of physics. Ignore everything you know about injuries and survivability. Just roll with it. It's the hangover with nukes and guns. Its utter ridiculousness is charming and hilarious.

Have fun spotting the character clichés. See how many nods to action movies/movie stars you can spot. From Die Hard, Mr & Mrs Smith, Burn After Reading, The A Team there's nods to all of them and more, some are very random.

But I have to say there is a lack of these types of programmes in our lives these days. Sometimes we just need to enjoy the stupidity and escape from reality and this delivers that in spades. Giggles throughout.

Personally I enjoyed the abs. My husband enjoyed the boobies!

Obliterated watchseries. I'm surprised by Netflix on this occasion. Show series had it's hilarious moments and the plot twists were genuinely interesting. Storyline was well paced in each episode. The show does pay sufficient attention to character development and by the 6th episode, the audience would have appreciated and understood the motivations behind their actions. I thought casting was spot on for Ava who didn't portray her as a toxic feminist girl boss but who exudes endearing feminine vulnerability coupled with strength. The rest of the team are definitely worthy of praise but I'm just trying the give this show the rating it deserves without going too long.

I was about 5 minutes into the first episode when I thought I wouldn't be able to get through it, much less the whole series. Now I'm on E3 and pretty sure I'll finish the series, except not as a binge, just filler when I feel like it.

How'd I get through it? I gave it a chance and remembered there used to be shows like this on broadcast TV. The TV landscape has changed so much over the last decade, but in a more serious direction, that tries (often successfully) to get us to binge. When something like this comes along, we automatically think it juvenile (which it is) from all the gross humor (which it has).

The acting by the lead is pretty bad, but everyone else is decent for the vibe of the show, which props her up. I think as long as you go in with a mindset of not taking it too seriously, it can actually be enjoyed. I'm thinking it's along the lines of late 90s outrageous comedy (Ace Ventura, American Pie, Dude Where's My Car) that we haven't seen in a while.

Absolute brilliance and a refreshing change. Reminds me of a more graphic lethal weapon season 1.

Characters are great and the chemistry is so good and shows on the screen. I genuinely have laughed out loud on every episode. Cast are so well cast and I didn't know any of them.

I hope a season 2 will be commissioned as 8 episodes wasnt enough and keep the original cast along for the ride.

Seriously if you like action comedy like lethal weapon then Give this a try it's a full octane comical sexy affair I have watched the whole of season 1 in one sitting.

Basically Team America made into an action series including the sex.

Not suitable for kids.

In summary, this series is an action-comedy with a plot reminiscent of The Hangover, featuring a team of undercover agents foolish. However, the writing, done by the creators of Cobra Kai, adds depth and complexity to the storyline. The characters, both protagonists and antagonists, exhibit cleverness in navigating challenging situations, akin to top-notch spy movies. Action scenes are incorporated with a sense of anticipation and humor in every episode. Each character faces life problems that they must solve, interwoven seamlessly with their mission, creating a multifaceted and emotionally engaging series and extremely funny and dirty jokes without any censorship. The only downside is that the cast, as a whole, may not exude a particularly captivating charm, but the well-crafted characters make it easy for viewers to like them.

Yes the dialogue is cringy at times and the acting isn't great.

Yes its nonsensical and predictable.

But it's also over the top super fun. Reminds me of 90's comedies where they didn't give a damn and just made fun movies.

There's lots of comedy some of which I even burst out laughing which hasn't happened in a while. Action is decent with enough chases, gore, explosions, and fight scenes to keep it interesting. Then there's the over the top nudity scenes which are gross and sometimes hilarious.

Is it the best thing that has ever came out... No.

But it's an entertaining show worth watching.
