Lunatics - Season 1
The comedy series begins with a group of eccentric people who live a different life and may sometimes be tough. They are a group of people who behave oddly and completely differently from normal. Quentin begins his transition to the CEO unexpectedly, and Jana explains more about her psychological methods that seem quite different. On the other hand, Gavin seems to be discovering again the history of Gehirst and Joyce describes her group again.

I'm sure Lilley is capturing different Australian types and language registers better than I can appreciate, but still the whole thing looks and feels like a ragbag of choices that neither hang together per character or per show.

The show is set up as an irreverent, bold exploration of weirdos and identity - Lilley probably wants you to be outraged - but it mostly feels like a bunch of tame sketches that overstayed their welcome.

With 10 episodes at an interminable 40 minutes each, there's just too much material here to slog through.

What should Chris Lilley do next? It's a question worth asking because, if you have watched his new Netflix series, Lunatics, you will have realised that the thing he currently does isn't very good.

The jokes, such as they are, wear down within minutes, making the relatively-brief 35-minute runtime into an unbearable slog.
