Tossing this out there for my friends as it’s super easy to miss, and by no means should it be missed.
Righteous Gemstones.....HBO Max.
Disclaimer: If you like Danny McBrides very specific type of humor ( East Bound and Down, Vice Principals) then watch this immediately. If you don’t, and there are many that don’t, then DO NOT watch.
I’m a fan of the style. And this one is the best yet.
One season, more to come.
Premise: The Gemstones are filthy rich, all from founding/preaching at one of these mega-churches. Not particularly religious and not good people, they bulldoze everything to make $$ ( in the name of the Lord of course).
The patriarch is John Goodman, his arse kidding sons are Danny McBride and Adam Devine.
They are just so good in that role.
The cousin/uncle is Baby Billy, played BRILLIANTLY by Walter Goggins.
The show is sweet at times, great story that cliff hangs often, and mixed with McBride’s undeniably unique style.
I don’t recommend often, but this ones easy to miss and it’s just excellent.
