What I liked

He is FUNNY. Even through really complex and vulnerable stories, Brendan finds smart ways to make the viewer laugh through the sadness. His identities on full display and his super powers at their best!

What I didn't like

Literally nothing.

My overall impression

This was a heartbreakingly funny show from the unhinged Brendan Scannell. I wasn’t sure what to expect but I was in it from the beginning. Brendan uses his perfect comedic timing to tell a deeply personal and vulnerable narrative. I don’t know the last time I was so caught between sobs and laughs.
