TallBoyz

I had to make an IMDb account just to vent.

This show is funded by the CBC, which means every sketch has to be run through a filter to make sure it's inoffensive to literally everyone. That alone kills comedy. You can't be funny if you're afraid to take risks.

But even if they were allowed to push boundaries, it wouldn't matter. None of them have comedic timing. Not one. They feel like people acting funny as opposed to actually being funny people.

I'm sure these boys are a good hang, but I genuinely have no idea how this show has won seven awards.

I've seen funnier TikToks made by 11-year-olds.

A complete waste of the 16 mins I managed to endure before having to turn it off except for the lesson learned. The people who gave this show the green light have no business bwing in the "comedy" business.

I really enjoy the silly humour of this show. The Toronto mans' accent and various BIPOC perspectives are spot on without sacrificing the funny. It takes some scathing shots at race and politics but wraps it in absurd comedy and I love that. I'm pretty sure I've seen all the episodes and and the production value just kept getting better and the storylines funnier. Each Tallboy brings something hilarious to the table and I can't believe they haven't been tapped for more. Also, it's rare to see a show with only minorities as the leads. If you like dumb humour, sketch comedy, and inclusivity then Tallboyz is for you.

I've sincerely enjoyed three seasons of Tallboyz. It shifts well between joyful absurdity and thoughtful takes on pertinent issues. I especially find myself drawn to the genuine, and hilarious demeanour that Guled Abdi brings to his performances. Looking forward to following the career from all four core members of the cast.

This show is so cute and lovely, and of course, funny - it's one of my favs. I also appreciate more sketch comedy coming to out, the more the merrier.
