Like the last reviewer I tried and tried but found this show increasingly difficult to watch because the characters are ALL so deplorable. Just like every Danny McBride vehicle before it , I can sum it up very easily: Grown ups behaving like children. In this spoiled rotten , idiotic children . I had to turn off 1st season because Edi Patterson's "Judy" was just SO grating every single time she opened her mouth. I don't enjoy schadenfreude and this is pretty much all this show contains honestly . I loved the concept of parody of the fake Christian mega church types but this is lacking in any kind of redeeming qualities/character/storylines. I laughed out loud a few times but more so I found myself thinking "gosh I really hope there aren't this many morons out here in the world -especially on television influencing the masses."
The only saving grace is always the infallible Walton Goggins, a true master of his craft, he kills every role he plays and Baby Billy is no exception. I really wanted to love this show because I only have 2 seasons of "Loudermilk " to replay as my comfort show every week , but again , redemption is present there. This is toilet humor at its best I guess you could say...
