The Worst Show On TV Gets Even Worse - Mr. Birchum Episode 2/3 Review

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 ก.ย. 2024
  • I'm back, and this time I'll be looking at the next two episodes of Mr. Birchum, and they are somehow even more terrible than my last video. Apologies for the footage looking weird in the first half of the video, I'm having some issues with keeping the video uploaded despite the fact that all clips are being used in accordance with fair use. Today, Mr. Birchum breaks more school codes and engages in some of the least funny sitcom plotlines I've literally ever seen.
    The show is the brainchild of Ben Shapiro and Adam Carolla and stars a variety of minor celebrities and celebrities you wish had said no, including Roseanne Barr, Patrick Warburton, Danny Trejo.

    it’s so funny that they’re using Romeo and Juliet when a) Juliet would have originally been played by a man anyway and b) knowing theater kids, it’s far more likely they would either end up with a Juliet and Juliet or have to cross-cast Romeo

      I was friends with a lot of the theater kids in high school. I even helped them build and paint a set for one of their plays. Not only are you right, but it would probably be their idea with the teacher just approving and going along with it rather than coming up with it on his own.

    The weirdest part is that they're Vietnam veterans, which would make them at the youngest, 68. Also, "you vote for Obama because of white guilt," is sixteen years old, which shows that Carolla hasn't updated the character since the early 90s when he first wrote it.

      And logically it doesn't even track. An audible tone for a sensor drone makes some sense. It means you don't need to look down when piloting it and can concentrate on what you are doing. The point of "too many bells and whistles" is it's distracting. If you have one of each, and this is too many for a device that essentially pilots itself then driving a car might be too much for you to handle. It's not like you are piloting a 747 here!

    I was watching another video where someone was reviewing episode 2 of Mr. Birchum and he's a teacher in 2024 who is a Vietnam vet? Nam vets are like 75 now. How old is he supposed to be exactly? I would at least buy it if he was a Gulf war vet. That would make sense. Btw, I feel like this show could lose The Daily Wire a ton of money, but they wouldn't care b/c it seems like they live in this fantasy world where it's more important to "own the libs," than to do something that makes sense.

    I hate commenting before I finish a video, but. When I was a kid, I had this Archie comic with a three-pager about accessibility. The concept is there's going to be a production of Romeo and Juliet, but Juliet is in a wheelchair and can't even get to the stage, so, of course, it breaks her heart. Betty takes the matter to the school janitor/handyman/mustache guy, and he immediately sees the problem and is like "I can handle this, two shakes"--and builds not only a wheelchair ramp to the stage, making it ADA compliant, but helps them build scaffolding so Juliet can reach the balcony for her biggest scene (uh, besides The Other One). It ends with everyone happy, and with the handyman having seriously flexed on both his skill and his care for the students.
    So, uh, yeah, Mr. Birchum loses in every capacity to Mr. Svenson. Mr. Svenson even has a better mustache. Get bent, Birchum.

This is just because they are going over fundamentals that will build into larger concepts when he takes more advanced classes. In other words you will be challenged but more importantly you will be LOST if you act like you know it all already and stop paying attention. His grades started to get better as he took my words to heart. Because everyone feels like they are a genius in middle school. heck the curriculum is designed to make you feel that way. It happened to me and it happened to the ding dong that wrote this episode. They just stopped at some point. they stunted their own growth, were told they were a genius and internalized it.

    So as a veteran i find the premise of this episode quite insulting and tone deaf. Especially when you compare it to a show like King of the Hill. America has a wierd relationship with veterans, they are appreciated, but quickly forgotten. No small amount of vets suffer feom alcohol addiction, tobacco addiction. PTSD, Depression, Anxiety, and suicide rates are incredibly high, for a conservative leaninf show, you would still think you would want to talk about this in a meaningful way, rather than just...hey our troops are just teying to get free stuff and drink on veterans day. Sure maybe MR. Bircham had a good time in service, but a vast majority of veterans have some chronic illness...a show like this seems to only want to target the left. But does so by completely ignoring a lot of systemic issues and tragedies that face the men and women of service. Also again...do they not realize the irony of a navy boy liking wood... seriously who wrote this show?

    What war did Birchum serve in? I heard it was during Vietnam. If this is true, the very youngest Birchum could be is around 67. Keep in mind, to be this young, Birchum would have to been 18 in 1975... during a time period where few servicemen remained in country, most vietnam vets served before 1969.
    However, this show animates a character who appears to far younger than possible for a 'nam vet.

      Considering how poorly thought-out the series is, it's likely they just didn't bother adapting his backstory to something more modern.

    • @kappadarwin9476
      @kappadarwin9476 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

      I took a creative writing class and they stressed how important time is to a setting. Time shapes how the characters interact with the world around them. Mr. Birchum is acting like how many point out from the 90s. But that doesn't really work in 2024 because his son is a streamer. It also doesn't help that he is veteran so he must have served ether early or mid way through the war which would put him in his 70s to 80s. This wouldn't make sense from a story telling perspective unless Birchum was like Captain America who was frozen and had something that slowed down his aging.
      If I was writing Birchum I'd make him a gulf war vet or have him lie about being a Vietnam vet. The latter would actually make his character more interesting.

    The worst part is a show like this could work. Have it be about 2 teachers. 1 be extreme right & 1 extreme left. Like comically extreme. Have them hate each other & constantly butting heads, but they actually care about the kids.
    Like Rome & Rome play. Have Mr. Birchum want to do it exactly as written & the other teacher his idea. They make everyone around them miserable with their constant bickering
    By the end of the show, they learn that men played all of the parts originally. So they compromise. They do the play exactly as written but any student can play any part no matter their gender.The play is a success.
