Alternatino with Arturo Castro

It is rare to find fine good comedy nowadays, this is it, saddly I do not think it will last

When I'm not purposely watching something on TV and just want it on for background noise, my default channel selection is usually a Comedy Central. This show happened to be on when I laid down to fall asleep and as I was scrolling through social media on my phone, I glanced over at the screen and started to watch. I was pleasantly surprised by what I saw. The several sketches that I caught before the show ended were pretty dang funny and I found myself putting down my phone entirely and paying full attention to the show. To cut this short, I laughed quite a bit while watching this show and will continue to watch when I see that it's on. Hopefully this show finds a solid following and gets to continue because it's pretty effin entertaining

Honestly, I anticipated so much less. The Make a Wish/Macklemore sketch was legitimately funny. I rarely laugh out loud at anything and I found myself doing just that on several occasions.

I was a fan of the first couple of seasons of Broad City, so was curious to see what kind of talent Arturo Castro had to be given his own show; and apparently that is relegated to "being that one dude who was on that chick show". For a sketch comedy this is just NOT funny...as in at all. Arturo is completely deadpan and has the range of a light-switch. The writers of this show don't really seem to be connected with Latino culture, modern living or male-female relationships, since their "observational humor" (and that is being generous) is not only unfunny, but irrelevant. Obviously all these high reviews are coming from people who either participate in the show or are friends of someone who does, because NO ONE in their right mind without ulterior motives could ever give this show anything above a 5. It's just bad.

The casting, writing, directing and production are fantastic. All I can do is highly recommend that you give it a watch.
