I wasn’t even planning on watching this but my boyfriend had it on and I really liked it? I didn’t end up seeing The Sucide Squad and have no particular affiliation towards Gunn (I am not a Guardians of The Galaxy fan at all)  – but this was such a fun hang and the cast seemed like they were having a blast. (also, great role for Danielle Brooks).

Emmy potential for title sequence and Cena I’d say

I’m excited to watch this! Cena was one of my favourite parts of The Suicide Squad, which as a whole, I thought was incredibly underrated!

I can’t believe I’m agreeing with this, but yeah… John Cena is giving one of the best comedic performances of the Emmy eligibility period

Cena’s commitment to going all in on the physical comedy is admirable and it’s a really smart way to use someone with his background. He doesn’t care about looking stupid which works to his benefit.

Also this show massively benefits from not having to be TV-14 or whatever Disney shows need to be rated.

Very happy to hear about the renewal. I’ll be watching the finale tonight, but just wanted to throw Freddie Stroma’s name out there. His performance as Vigilante is so good. He often delivers the biggest laughs in the series. If HboMax does a Peacemaker awards campaign, I hope Stroma is pushed for Supporting Actor

Honestly, the whole ensemble is really good. Shout out to the casting director. On paper I wouldn’t put some of those actors together but they make a really interesting group.

Might not be the most prestigious show of the season, but probably the funniest.
