Hot Date

I have seen two episodes of this show and I am hooked. This is definitly a weird and different take on relationship and daily life subjects. On the surface some jokes might look stupid at first but I think they all lead up to a connection and message that often adds unique viewpoints to themes. Its not really your basic laughtrack humor although the show seems to make fun of comedy clichés.

The whole thing is basically a skit show with some intelligent and creative (editing wise) connections of the themes, many of them sexual in nature or dealing with different views at things in different stages of your life and making fun of TV with spoofs inserted and reoccuring on TV screens in the scenes.

There is one guy here calling this "worst show" which is kind of funny because he used the exact same review on another show here on IMDB. So make up you mind, which is the "worst show" now ... i always found the "worst" statement on movies to be quite funny and idiotic since it most of the time is proof of a visceral emotional reaction to a movie or show that is hugely exaggerated. But this guy is a caricature of himself trolling 2 shows with the word for word same review. So I guess when people accuse a show like this of 12year old humor and lack of intelligence, that reflects hard on their own cognitive abilities.

Nothing brings a smile to my face like the CollegeHumor cast from when I was in college, they had an uncanny ability to see through the bull and call it like it is in a clever, hilarious way. This show is the epitome of that by two of my favorites Emily and Murphy. My wife and I have been cruising through the episodes laughing the whole time. Maybe it's a generational or situational thing but we relate to so much in the show that it makes it that much more enjoyable (we're 29 and 31). Worth checking out regardless, a lot of slapstick as well as clever humor. Just found a gem, wish I knew about it when it originally aired.

I have never related more to a show in my life! I love a lot of shows for their humor or uncomfortableness (see The Office or Nathan Ruins everything), but no show has ever made me feel like I was watching my own life like this one. I can get sucked into series like Community or What We Do in The Shadows, but it's because it's written so well and funny. This show is also written so well, but feels like it epitomizes modern relationships. Well done to everyone involved!

"Hot Date" is a a comedy starring Emily Axford and Brian Murphy. It feels like a sketch show, but the individual pieces intertwine, forming a whole that is quirky and contemporary. The two stars morph into multiple characters, exploring relationships and parodying popular conventions and au courant practices.

The humor is smart. They have an uncanny eye for piercing the veils of propriety and self-delusion. The result is a style that may be more about chuckling than laughing out loud, depending upon your perspective. Watch and decide for yourself.

This show is hilarious, it's a shame it didn't last longer than 1 season. Sure some parts are extremely over the top, but it's genuinely funny and definitely worth checking out on Netflix.
