Los Espookys on HBO.
Another entry in our They Get Us, They Totally Get Us! “series.”
“It’s unclear, at any given time, how ‘good’ these tricks are supposed to be — or, in a few cases, how the group even pulled them off. But the show isn’t really about the tricks; it’s about telling good jokes, and how these theatrical goofs give the wannabe magicians behind the curtain a sense of direction and meaning.
“‘Los Espookys’ is a horror show that bathes its characters in sunlight, a surreal comedy whose absurdism is outmatched only by the quietly earnest tenderness its writers clearly feel toward the characters they’ve created.”
