Is Bad Monkey Even Better Than Ted Lasso?
We are about to meet the Ted Lasso creator's brand-new TV show! "Bad Monkey" is the next Apple TV+ comedy and critics are totally losing it over how amazing it is! It even outshines Ted Lasso, that heartwarming show, so it must be amazing.
Is it really THAT good?
It seems crazy, but "Bad Monkey" actually just won the hearts of Rotten Tomatoes reviewers, getting a perfect score of 100%! That's some big bragging rights - no one gave this one a bad review, and if everyone is super hyped, you have to check it out.
Why Do The Critics Love it so Much?
"Bad Monkey" is based on this great book from Carl Hiaasen, with the action set in a totally wacky setting - South Florida - with all its drama! And Vince Vaughn is the lead character in the show as this cop who ends up investigating a gruesome crime and navigating all those eccentric people!
- He gets into so much hilarious trouble, and this show is great for its combination of crime and comedy.
- We love Vaughn for his classic comedic energy from "Swingers" but now, they're really showcasing his dramatic side too - like those other roles from "Brawl in Cell Block 99." This Apple TV+ show just gets the best of his performance,
What Happens In Bad Monkey?
- A lot goes down with those super cool Bad Monkey characters. This cop is investigating those crimes, trying to clear his name - and that is what is really interesting!
- But this show doesn't just focus on the crime. They're diving into those relationships and showing just how these crazy characters end up in these ridiculous situations, but we also get some emotional parts - it's not all just comedy!
Is "Bad Monkey" Like Ted Lasso?
Think of it as totally different - "Ted Lasso" was all about this heart-warming and positive energy, but this is a little darker, but also so much funnier. And just like Ted Lasso, "Bad Monkey" is pretty well put together - which is what made fans like "Ted Lasso Seasons" 1 and 2, it was so unique! That's one thing we have to remember. "Ted Lasso" fans really are excited - this whole thing shows that Bill Lawrence is making TV with tons of quality - which makes it even more special!
We're getting tons of exciting Crime Comedy, too! We all know Bill Lawrence for some amazing shows: like "Scrubs" and "Cougar Town" - but he definitely nailed this show with its blend of dramatic twists and wild jokes.
It's no wonder, too - that so many critics say "Bad Monkey" is going to be a really big deal!
