YOOUR FRIENDS ABD NEIGHBORS inhabited a rocky path throughout season two. It ended with several cliffhangers so I am hopeful it will return to clear up all the ambiiguity and angst accumulated through each sarcastic episode. Jon Hamm as Coop is becoming quite adept at leading audiences down a trail of shady borders and treacherous turns of events. He is the narrator of his downward spiraling tale. He does it all very well since he has some mighty fine and hunky acting chops on display at all times.
The cast is amazing and includes Ananda Peet, Jason Schwartzman, Hoon Lee, Olivia Munn, and Mark Tallman. The stories are tight and move quickly. It is an interesting jaunt through the lifestyles of the rich and fallen. One misstep and the story changes to include gobs of vicious gossip. It will make viewers wonder why the poor envy the wealthy. No one is truly happy or satisfied. Fascinating and entertaining episodes which ultimately brings mayhem, destruction, and death. It is a glorious soap box with people we all love to hate. Empathy among the rich is a rare commodity indeed.
YOUR FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS should not be taken seriously. It is pure escapism with white collar crime, poop piles, and lusty moments everywhere in between. It is streaming on Apple TV.
