The Dress Up Gang is beyond incredible. It's nuanced and ridiculous and relatable and heartbreaking. These writers don't take any cheap shots to get laughs, they treat everything that we're used to seeing be a punchline - a man in a dress, expressing feelings and communication, etc. and treat it as normal. It's charming and also hilarious.
On YouTube TV (just do the 14-day trial and binge this show, bc at $50/month it's not worth it) you'll have to check the order of episodes bc for some reason they're out of order and there's definitely a story building for Cory that you want to see unfold as the creators intended. If you manage to watch on TBS, they're in order there but you have to watch 9 ads every 10 min or so.
Whatever you need to do to watch this show, do it. It's worth it. It's filling the hole in my life left by Broad City and despite not having much gender diversity, you do get Chase Bernstein who is underutilized but still amazing, and Andie McDowell who plays herself and makes the show feel so uniquely LA. As a transplant to LA, who really enjoyed hanging out with a cast of misfits throughout my 20s, this show captures the friendships you make here, the shared courtyard, the couch surfing roommate, it's just... everything.
New Look Day and The Cockroach are not to be missed. And The Bully made me cry. I hope there's a season 2 and if not, I hope whatever these guys do next it's easier to access than TBS and YouTubeTV.
