Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness: an Almost History of America
CriticsCritics: 64
AudienceAudience: 6.4
An improvised comedy revisits major moments in American history through an irreverent, playful lens. Created to mark the 250th anniversary of the United States, the series offers an intentionally unconventional take on the country’s past.
My takeYou may enjoy this if you like irreverent historical comedy and improvisation, especially the broad humor of Curb Your Enthusiasm or Little Britain USA; Not for you if you want a serious history series.
