Created by Danny McBride and Jody Hill (co-creators of HBO's Eastbound & Down), this dark comedy series tells the story of a southern suburban high school and the two people who almost run it, the vice principals. McBride and Walton Goggins star as Neal Gamby and Lee Russell, a pair of ambitious administrators waged in an epic power struggle to ascend to the top spot after the long-time principal (Bill Murray) steps down to tend to his ailing wife. When Dr. Belinda Brown (Kimberly Hebert Gregory) swoops in to claim the job, Gamby and Russell put their mutual disdain aside and, operating by the adage that "the enemy of my enemy is my friend," team up for an all-out, take-no-prisoners effort to bring down Dr. Brown, the only person who may in fact have the school's best interests at heart.

Recensie van Necrotongue voor deze serie (6)

Season 1 (2016) (S01) 

Engels I wasn’t expecting to enjoy this so much. The only thing that surprised me was the turning point that came in the seventh episode when a completely undemanding comedy became a comedy-drama with elements of a thriller in later episodes. The two "heroes" were well-written and, thanks to Danny McBride and Walton Goggins, well-acted. I'm curious to see how the second season will manage to pick up where the first one left off. ()

A Trusty Steed (2016) (S01E02) 

Engels Given Neal Gamby's agility, the name Gumby would definitely suit him better. As I commented on the first episode, the series seems undemanding to me, but it's nice to relax, switch off, and above all, have fun with it. Gamby and Russell's shenanigans in the principal's house were brilliant. ()

The Field Trip (2016) (S01E03) 

Engels In the third episode, I laughed very much. It was so obvious and awkward that it was extremely funny. I chased away that annoying intellectual who sometimes takes over me, and had a great time. ()

The Good Book (2016) (S01E07) 

Engels There was certainly something to laugh about, but otherwise the episode felt like some kind of special for Family Day. By that, I don't mean anything bad, if it was a typical American movie, I would still be drowning in pathos. In this episode, they crossed the line a few times as well, but it wasn't in any way tasteless, so again, I evaluate it positively. ()

Gin (2016) (S01E08) 

Engels Hmmm, I'm beginning to suspect that the previous episode wasn't a random matter and that the creators intentionally added a new dimension to the series. I haven't decided yet if it didn't harm the show instead; I think I preferred it when it was just a straightforward comedy. The newly introduced situations that are meant to create the impression of something deeper sometimes sound a bit fake to me. However, Belinda Brown's rampage was fantastic. ()

End of the Line (2016) (S01E09) 

Engels The final episode of the first season was successful, even though by now the series should have comedy/drama/thriller written in the description. Anyway, I enjoyed it and the ending remained open in such a way that I will certainly not miss the second season. ()
