The Curse

It's Nathan Fielder and Emma Stone, and has to be the most embarrassing cringe inducing show ever made.

It's amazing, but a lot of episodes I've had to stop and do something else and finish it later.

I can't even imagine trying to binge it all at once. Fielder is just too good at that stuff

I think Nathan Fielder is one of the funniest people on the planet right now. The Rehearsal is fucking unreal.

the fact that you are never sure how much of it is a character and how much is him as a person, is just amazing

My Second-hand Embarrassment / Vicarious Embarrassment / Fremdschämen is really bad. The Curse is like eating spoonfuls of delicious sand.

Uhg. I watched an episode of The Curse when my wife found it. I am convinced that the curse is actually the entire show - they're cursing the audience.

Sounds like a good test to one's faith.

Not seen that one yet but from the outside it only exists so Fielder can briefly live out his Emma Stone wife fantasies, no? 😅

My partner really likes the curse but I said we can't watch it together anymore because it makes me feel like shit
