'MacGruber' in TV-series form is 250 percent longer but just as MacGrubery as it ever was: hit-or-miss funny and totally over-the-top. Read Alan Sepinwall's review.
Taccone turned out to be as good at directing fake action sequences as he and his Lonely Island cohort were at making fake rap videos forThe thing about MacGruber in every incarnation, including this new TV version for Peacock, is that he is too much, always: too sure of his abilities, too focused on something other than the task at hand, too juvenile, too horny, too everything. Every joke gets driven into the ground, dug up, and driven back another five to 17 times.
The expansion from 90-second sketches to a 90-minute movie to an eight-episode series has left the franchise’s sense of humor fundamentally unchanged. Queeth’s name is, like Cunth, a long set-up for a joke about the dirty word it sounds like. MacGruber’s fascination with pubic hair not only returns, but becomes a key plot point, as does his belief that “whoever smelt it, dealt it” is an immutable fact of life.
