He made this about his self.

He's an socially awkward white guy that has trouble with relationships (he alluded to this in the 1st episode) and prior work. The first episode was absolute perfection and I thought it would be where the series was headed. He gives Angela this big production that wasn't needed (she's clearly in it for her on personal/selfish reasons) when in fact he is the one alone with her wants a family.

He sees what she wants and when Robin bails, he inserts himself as the dad. In my opinion, when Robin left that storyline should've ended. But no, he now plays this role of father ( which in reality he wants) but can't find Angela to play or axt the role correctly. So what does he do? Starts the entire process of raising a child over with her to prove something.

It's been 5 episode,

1 Core= perfection
2 Tc scion = prefection
3 Whiteboy caught on and bailed
4 Started the process over
5 All focus on Angela and she bailed


If I was HBO I wouldn't bring it back. Dope concept but not executed properly.
Spot on. If this show was like the first episode it would of been some of the best tv ever. I never finished it because of Angela story.

I'm pretty sure he focused on Angela because of covid restricting filming. At least that's what I remember

Season 2 was great anyways

The show is really taking 'television' to its pinnacle and beyond. It seems to fully encompass that format that was, is and will be simultaneously, while constantly presenting premises, concepts and visuals that have never been produced before.

Anyone who doesn't understand the multi-dimensional chess Fielder had been embarking on since Nathan On Your Side is bearing master class fruit currently is just unaware of true game.

Nathan Fielder is genius at this, extremely meta
I appreciate the work
