A Diamond in the Rough
alanv-reed2 November 2022
Never has a show better understood real life than Big Mouth. The whole point of this show is that we are constantly changing and evolving, at times regressing. It doesn't matter what the embarrassing thing is, or the bad things that happens to them (obviously it does because it's the characters stories). It's about the characters decisions, based off of their feelings of fear, loniness, desire, etc. Like ignoring your own basic needs/comfort because you're worried about what your parents will think. How emotions can let you become blind to the reality of situations. How insecurities lead you to messy situations and it's all tied together seamlessly with silly, funny comedy to add the perfect amount of levity so we all don't have a massive panic attack thinking about all the things we did and felt as teenagers.

Warning: Spoilers
I feel like I'm now at the point that the sunk cost fallacy is in full swing. I didn't watch Human Resources because the hormone monsters are some of the worst parts of the actual series, and the other 'creatures' they introduced that might show up in it aren't exactly making me feel any more interest in the series. I legit can't imagine people who are like "WOW MORE SHAME WIZARD AND DEPRESSION CAT!"

This is a show where it's supposed to be ironic takes on what happens during the growth and development that comes with being a kid venturing into adulthood. This entire episode was about watching kids have sex with each other. The problem is that the show is about watching a bunch of kids have sex with each other. There's no payoff and seriously I'm shocked that Matthew, Jay, and Missy have the most character growth so far because 2/3 of them have been my least favorite characters.

If they wrote out Nick, Andrew, and Jessie I'd be pretty ok with it.
