These two performers are brilliant! I've enjoyed several of their song videos on the web, and just watched the premier of their series. I was cautiously hopeful, maybe a bit doubtful, that they could weave together a coherent show in the longer format, but they nailed it.
Funny, insightful, self-deprecating, honest, awkward, topical humor that's a rare find these days among U.S. comics. It's a real pleasure to find this kind of sophisticated talent without having to look to Australia or the U.K. Please sign them up for another season!
To provide some context, one of my favorite recent comedic shows is Rake - The Australian series, not the horribly lame Hollywood remake that wastes Greg Kinnear's talent. My favorite all-around comedic actor is the U.K.'s Steve Coogan. If you have a taste for that kind of humor, you should give Garfunkel and Oates a try.
