I am more than surprised to look this show up on IMDb.com and find that it is rated above 5 out of 10. I am astonished that it is rated 7.9. I mean..... how?! Who is actually watching this awful show and giving it almost an 80% rating? Who watches Schitt's Creek, a TV series built entirely on an excrement pun, and says to themselves "this show is so funny it deserves a grade of A!" This show is not the worst I've ever seen by far but it is definitely a below average show that is just plain not good.
Catherine O'Hara, Eugene Levy and Chris Elliott are all A+ comedy actors in my books. But that doesn't mean this show is automatically good. I don't blame them at all for the fact that this show stinks. It's the fault of the writer(s) who have given them nothing good to do or say. Not one moment of one scene in one episode is believable or funny in the least. The show is built on lowbrow puns and predictable lowest common denominator jokes, given to pathetic, unlikable characters who range from one dimensional at best to offensive stereotypes at worst.
The level of cleverness and hilarity never rises above the terrible pun title this show has been saddled with. I hate that my tax dollars get pumped into below average shows like this year after year.
Worst of all is Dan Levy, who must be Eugene Levy's son because why else would he have been put on this show. His screechy overacting and hammy over the top delivery make me cringe every time he is on screen, and most especially every time he opens his mouth.
He gets a 0/10, the writing gets 0/10, the rest of the supporting cast gets 2/10, the three great comedy actors get 7/10 and the show overall gets a 3/10 from me.
