Tires

As a consumer, I am in love with work place comedies. TIRES definitely has potential to hit all the major needs for such a show. However, I felt that only 6 episodes for season one left us at a "cliff hanger" that didn't have enough time for the story and characters to develop where they needed to be. Idk if this was trust issues between Netflix and the writers but regardless the season needed way more episodes to keep people hooked. Would I watch season 2? Probably... HOWEVER, if it the plot isn't able to thicken and expand further than what they already have, then all I can say is bearish...

The goal of this show is to make people laugh. That's it. It made my laugh a lot. Is it for everybody? No. Comedy isn't universal. That's why there are different varieties of comedy. If you didn't find this funny, that's cool. I did. Hence, the 9/10.

Shane nailed it. Stavros surprisingly can act. Heck, even Andrew Schulz had a decent go at it. For once, I didn't hate him.

Anyways, it was refreshing to see a show on Netflix that didn't worry so much about who it catered to or what story it told. It was just a casual comedy that doesn't take itself too seriously and in my opinion, that's exactly what comedies should be.

Mr Billis has done a most satisfactory job with this serialised comedic play of fools. I especially liked the setting.

Having worked in the field of tyres for over a decade, I can tell you one thing, tyres aren't easy. They can be a cruel fish.

I call tyre work, rubbing rubber, because tyres is a life of rubbing up against rubber.

Interesting fact: The phrase, rub of the green, actually comes from tyre work. The old Dunlop racing range of tyres used by Jaguar F1 in the early 50s, came with a green line that encircled the rim. These tyres were very successful for Jaguar, hence the phrase, rub of the green, meaning, to be lucky.

I might be a little bias with this review but sign me up for anything Shane Gillis. Anything and everything he has put out, I've enjoyed. Tires is a short and light show that takes place entirely in a tires shop. Horribly mismanaged and filled with lackadaisical workers. Shane Gillis and company poke fun at themselves as well as poking fun at others. It's extremely familiar in the sense that everyone has worked with these people in some fashion. Tires is the perfect watch if you want to relax and have a few laughs by yourself or with friends. If you're on lunch and you just want to throw something on while you eat than look no further. You'll probably breeze through the episodes but season two has already been green-lit so more is on the way.

Tires has got to be the most surprising funny show I have seen in a very long time. Sure it seems super basic and 'Office-like', but the dialogue and manners that each and every one of the characters has is so ridiculously funny especially with each situation they get themselves into. I wish that there were a couple more episodes in the season, but it's perfect that another season was just announced a day after the first season was released. If you love 'The Office' or 'Parks and Recreation' I highly suggest you watch this show, but if you are not into a lot of cussing an extremely crude humor, continue with caution. I can't wait for Season 2!!!!!
